Did they only give you 24hrs to get back with an answer saying "yes" or "no" or have they requested for proof of full time employment and docs to support genuine need ?

Underthesun Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Hi guys, I’m new! just wondering if anyone else is in my position? Im a carpenter. I Came out on 457 four years ago and have been with the same company. I have been waiting a painfully frustrating 25 months for a response to my 186 application. I submitted mid 2018 and still my status reads ‘received’ My migration agent can’t do anything, I’ve contacted home affairs so many times and recently started the process of formal complaint which didn’t do much. I just don’t know what to do. I have a family and cannot get promoted to a more senior role. I’ve been at the same level. It’s really getting to me mentally. Just clinging on to some sort of hope.

I’ve rang so many times the past year and they either say they can’t discuss it, some have said that it’s not acceptable and Informed me an email has been sent to processing to prioritise it, then I hear nothing. They keep saying that Unfortunately there is a 10% margin. A lot of different answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
