Lapking Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Hi Guys, Long silent reader here. This forum helped me to go through all the ups and downs of awaiting for a grant so I thought I will share the good news. Just got my golden email on Friday evening. What a journey. Application submitted 19 Feb 2019. Onshore, DE, HR. App + nom submitted through MA on the same day. Direct grant, no requests but I provided an AFP check couple of months ago. Occupation: Technical Sales Rep nec. Nomination approved precisely a week ago. Feb'18 is definitely on fire and waiting time checks out. Finally my partner and I can truly start living in this wonderful country. I hope you guys gonna get your grants soon. Cheers 2 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just received good news from my MA regarding my nomination (see signature). Any ideas how long it would take for the visa grant to come through (given that I prepared and submitted the visa application a few days after my MA submitted the nomination)? I appreciate that I am very lucky to have received the nomination grant so fast. Wishing you all the very best with what is a painful process that can be very distracting. Congrats Wow you are so lucky, I think this is the fastest nomination approval at the moment. Good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of Luck everyone. Thanks for the information! I am just wondering. You are one of the quickest to get a nomination approved and also in a HR occupation... since you wrote quite a lot of messages here, did you also write immigration a lot? Because if so, maybe it does help then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, we were contacted in 4 days but since we don't have the required police clearances ready, we might have to wait for a couple of months.

I think that the reason mentioned in his signature was not solid according to him. lots of people get refusals based on the opinion of IMMI that the position isnt needed or that the business doesn’t have the financial capacity to pay the salary. However those reasons for refusal seem a bit stupid because people applying for PR 186 TRT have been working in that position for that salary for 2+ years because a lot of businesses (mainly restaurants) do dodgy deals with their employees, the department looks deeper into their finances and business structure I suppose. Some genuine applicants suffer from this unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My "last updated" has not changed remaining 3 April 2018, should I worry about this? could this mean the document did not get through? Thank you in advance.... Hey don't stress. This happened to me and also others. If you search keywords in this forum it will come up. Sometimes police check doesn't seem to change the 'last updated' date for some reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friskycharmer Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hi akiradiaz mine hasn't changed either i wouldn't be to alarmed. I uploaded my new police check on the 4th of Feb so hoping by the end of Feb they will have looked at it. Slightly different with the NZ police checks as they have to contact the ministry of justice to confirm there isn't a 2nd page so can take longer. Gotta love a long wait eh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
