jackie Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Hi Laura , What job are you going to be doing?? I am a nurse and desperately looking for work on a 457 sponsorship visa in Bunbury or Bustleton WA. I am going over to register in person in July with the Nursing regulatory body AHPRA but work is sparse. I'm looking for help !!

Hi Raul, my friend have lodge a subsequent 457 visa for her husband in Feb 2017 but no word from DIBP until now. We have heard approvals of 457 subsequent visas in just 3 weeks so we were wondering why her husband's application is taking so long. Should they be concerned and contact DIBP?

Raul Senise Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 There are so many variables that can affect processing times, it is difficult to determine an average time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Nurse Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 My visa sponsor had all my paperwork for me and my family last week - was hoping for a quick turnaround as the employer is a regular sponsor, but now am getting a bit worried after seeing all your posts! Can anyone tell me if I should be able to see my application on immi-account if the employer has applied on my behalf? I have AHPRA registration in principal but my extension is only until 30/9/2017 and my new job is due to start on 1st August! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelley Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 When your nomination is approved u can get the TRN of your employer, then I logged that into Immi account, did our bit, then got our own TRNIt seemed that from us logging all our details into Immi account and getting a case working, employers details was then added, so I can see the company now on my Immi.Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz When nomination gets approved then you get the Nomination ID not the Nomination TRN. TRN is provided when your employer just lodge the nomination application, and nomination ID is provided once it is approved. I actually lodged my individual application with the Nomination TRN before the nomination is approved. After lodging the application I didn't see employer information in my immiaccount. However, after 1 month I see their information is appearing in my immiaccount. I was wondering is it due to the fact that their business sponsorship was approved as well as the nomination? I asked my employer, but they didn't reply to my question. My employers sponsorship and nomination both yet to be approved as far as I know.

rubel797 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Good news!!! Yesterday, I got my visa. I received the visa grant letter as an attachment in the email. It took approximately 5 months since sponsorship application. Big relieve!!! Now I have a quick question if anyone can answer that would be great. Is Visa Grant Letter the only document as proof of my visa to travel? Do I need any physical visa seal on my passport? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
