Parkesy Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Been lying in bed for the past 4 hours racked with intense anxiety in the feedback loop from hell, grinding my teeth and staring at the ceiling. It's so frustrating as everything is out of my control except the way I choose to feel about my current situation. I've decided to have a go at not giving a fu#k, logging off immi and this forum for a month or so (at least) and seeing what happens. Can't be much worse and may actually be better for my mental health. Good luck kids. I hope you all get what you are looking for.

I asked my lawyer she didn't say anything about that. Definetly updating! Someone on here got refused in the last 10 days for not having up to date BAS. .... also on the email correspondence automated message you get back if you email it states that’s they are refusing applications that are not up to date in order to make the process quicker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm DE and already working for the company that is sponsoring me (under a 457), I've done a hopefully very thorough job in listing and uploading all the documents needed. What could you upload other than what's in the list? Month to month payslips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example my company completes BAS every quarter so we have updated every quarter BAS on company application and will continue to do this until my file is complete. If I reach July (another financial year) we will update the company's profit/loss and training expenditure as well as getting a new letter from the accountant... Basically keeping all the financial documents they request updated- it will also eliminate them having to request documents and more waiting (I'm hoping) Please bare in mind i don't have an agent- every thing i do could possibly be over the top... but i just do not want to give them ANY excuse!!! hope this makes sense!!

Hey @Bellabonkers thanks for outlining, i'd seen this mentioned before but wasn't sure what it was. Do you know if I’m correct in thinking this applies to DE only applications though? I’ve just informed my HR contact at work who lodged the nomination, just in case, but when I read the check lists again I’m not sure this applies to TRT nominations: https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/trav/visa-1/186-#tab-content-1 See the two DE and TRT specific employer check lists (in step 1 on that page) – DE mentions BAS but TRT doesn’t seem to mention it… Tom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katepip Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I just called the phone number on the automatic email (pese Nsw) and spoke to a really nice lady. My file, March 2017 hasn’t been allocated, but she said (referring to the email) they’re processing up to March 2017 now and they apparently update this weekly. If it would change and process up to April 2017 next week, she said to call again and they’ll look into it.. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have not been the sole approved standard business sponsor for the nominated person in the three years prior to applying: evidence that the nominated person has worked for the same employer, in the same role and in the same location for the whole three year period, such as: relevant documents relating to the sale, takeover or restructure of the business which clearly demonstrate that the nominated person has worked for the same employer, and contracts, PAYG payment summaries and evidence of the nominated person's reporting lines to evidence that the nominated person has worked in the same role and location. Evidence that you met the training requirement throughout the validity of your standard business sponsorship (that is, evidence that you met the 'training benchmarks' for each year in which you were approved to sponsor a TSS or subclass 457 visa holder).

This stuff was uploaded by employer in October when the app went in, and I’m about to upload an update myself showing payslips, salary payments in to bank, superannuation payments etc. So after that it’ll be up to date completely. What do they actually expect though really, that each fortnight we upload a payslip, bank statement and superannuation statement? Seems a bit OTT. I’m surprised they would refuse visa over asking for this as an update when the case is opened. Otherwise you could be going through that fortnightly process for up to a year or longer, it’d all get very messy in the immi account!
