paisleylass Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 So my hubby emailed ACRO/ACPO whatever to see what was going on. They replied with a tracking number! Our certificates are in Brisbane! Have been since Wednesday!!! Just held no doubt in Australia Post's customs facility, so that's the hold-up now. Will be tracking it next week to see where it's at, no doubt I'll get home from work Monday or Tuesday to find a bloody card in the mail box grrr, will happily go to work late the next day in order to collect from PO.

Alaska Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 So, I won't quite believe this until I have the grant email in my hand, but we got an email from the MA last night saying our PR has been granted! So timeline was: 27 March - Nomination and Application uploaded with all documents (medicals, police checks etc). ENS 186 Transition Stream. late June - Nomination approved and CO assigned. 4 July - Visa granted. Over the moon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paisleylass Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Fantastic swimming, you must be so pleased! Very happy for you! We are a bit closer - hubby's police UK clearance finally showed up yesterday. I got concerned about mine so rang ACPO, who quickly sent my tracking number. Guess what? It's not even left the UK - been stuck at Heathrow for 11 days. I know it's Royal Mail's fault but I've whinged to ACPO about it anyway, see if I can get a replacement sent, sounds to me like it's been lost!! So that'll be a further 2 week wait *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

family of five Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Just a quick update. Daughters police check arrived Monday - so went to JP and uploaded last night Daughters form 80 uploaded for 3rd time (just in case) Immi account still shows australian quailifcation required and character for 7 and 8 year old still showing required. Still no reply to email sent 20.06.14 and 24.06.14 so guess the email replying backlog is long. waiting! Tina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have lost any trust in Royal Mail at this time (my certificate now 12 days stuck at Heathrow!), but I guess they use DHL or similar as courier? We haven't had any documents endorsed by JPs - just uploaded colour scans. Am nervous now... But the CO hasn't remarked on this and I've assumed the 'received' status for each required document means all is good? The police check thing is now driving me utterly crazy. I have emailed twice asking if a copy of the certificate can be posted to a UK rellie (so she can scan and email it to me), 15 quid all up for admin fee and next day delivery, but no reply. After replying to all my other messages within half an hour, this one seems to have them stumped. I am now just in limbo, hubby will be emailing CO to explain what's going on, not that we'll get a reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UK police check seems to take for ever but it would seem yours may be lost 11 days in one place is crazy. Getting it sent to UK seems like a good idea, good lucj.

Team Crouch Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hi all... trying to workout if it makes a difference where the application is lodged from... Seems it does. We are Qld, north of Brisbane. Our timeline is: got MA through employer applied for Transition Stream 186 and employer nomination all together all paperwork uploaded with it. Medicals and police checks done as well application lodged 24 April 2014 heard nothing as yet ... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea25 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hello Team Crouch, I am the same case as yours and the only difference is, I received Nomination Approval last July 03,2014 but no news until now. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Crouch Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Good luck to all of us !!! Yes totally... Good luck everyone...!! unless you've been through waiting for PR, I really don't think people understand all of our anxious waiting.... I feel for everyone xxxx it it took us 5 years to get here, 1 fallen sponsorship, 1 declined business visa, lots of money... Sheer determination.... Finally another job offer.... Redundancy last year... Then revoked.... Now 7 years later... We are nearly there!!!!! Edited July 10, 2014 by Team Crouch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie123 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hi Guys, New to this site and forum. We have been here for two years on a 457. Went through MA for 186 ENS. Visa application and nomination was submitted 02/07/14 with all medicals , police checks etc. It was acknowledged on 10/07/14 at the Parramata office so i will keep you posted how i go. My new bub is due in October so fingers crossed it is approved before then. Good luck to everyone, i hate the waiting game already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
