Guest Manoj Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 HI Mate I have same case like you I am going away for 12 days as well but my migration agent told me that because my 485 visa is valid up to june 2014 so I don't need to apply any bridging visa before or after I come back....so please suggest me what is your experience .Are you applying for that... ? Ā wait for your reply Thanks Manoj Hi everyone, Ā My visa 485 is expiring on the 14th of May 2014. I am currently waiting for the approval of my visa 187.

QSR Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 This website has been very helpful in monitoring the trend or predicting timeline Anyway this is mine so far: RCB lodged in 20/5/13 and approved on 18/6 Date of visa Application = 20/06/13 Visa class= RSMS subclass 187 office location = west perth, 6005 Nomination approved= 18/11/13 Made an inquiry on 19/12 (after a month wait) regarding the hold up and this is what I've received: "I am the case officer for the visa application lodged by the nominee . kindly note that there is no outcome at this stage and I will advise you in due course." Now it has been 2 months (well i am counting the xmas and new year holidays) and my agent told me not to ask again as it might delay the processing time. I read somewhere that the processing time is 3-9 months and been reading that in some of yous cases the visa has been granted in matter of minutes after the approval of nomination. So i am a bit confused and hopeless at this stage and getting frustrated cos i am unwillingly going to work everyday as it has been 3 yrs for me at one place and want to move on to some other job :wacko::arghh::arghh::arghh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blossom Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 QSR. You do realise it is part of the visa requirement that you must stay at the job for two years AFTER the visa is granted don't you? If you leave the visa can be cancelled. I got my visa in November 2012. I'm counting the days until I can leave. Ā You really need to be patient. And if you are planning on leaving, start looking at other visa options now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QSR Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Ye mate m fully aware about my visa requirements. Well if you have been in the country for more than 4-5 years then once your PR is granted(even if it conditional) then you will be eligible to apply for citizenship after a year from the grant and it should be about a year and few months. you dont really have to wait for complete 2 years. Its not that i am sick of my job, its just that I dont stay at one place (job wise), i like to step up and move around. Anyway hope this tip might help others if they've been in Aus from a while. Following is another website where you can ask any questions to Mr Peng Cheng who has been counselling from a while for free with his expert immigration advise. http://myaccessaustralia.com/ens-rsms-processing-times-decision-ready-applications/#comment-35019 Ā Blossom79 you can leave your job under exceptional circumstances and your visa will not be cancelled unless someone dob you and complain immi. circumstances can be: redundancy= your company is going down and your position isnt needed, if this happen then you will be out of the shackles and are free. unfair/harrassment= if there is any unjustified situation. Franchise= if you particular store or restaurant is been franchised and the new owner dont want you there. You gota keep that in mind that that the sole pupose of you getting sponsorship under 187 (direct entry) is that company is promising you to give the job for two years and the contract has a silent agreement between the parties that there will be job available and the person will get paid for two years by the company. If something happen to the company then its not on you and you arent the one to be blamed. Ā hope this might help others. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clivechan Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 A colleagues of mine have his PR granted today 18Dec 2013He lodged his visa application after nomination approved. Lodged visa in June 2013, Mel PSE, motor mechanic, only shown 1 year work experience. He was on 485 visa before PR visa. Ā For those who concern about 515 policy, regarding 2 years exp, Here is an exemption case which not affected by it. hi,flower.. is it true? i am also a motor mechanic without 2years experience,and i have c3,c4 and diploma.now i am so confused about the definition of this 2 years experience.if your colleague has got PR with only one year experience,then does it mean the 515 policy just doesn't affect this occupation-motor mechanic only?what about those mechanics who have only half a year exp or no exp?are they still not affected by it as well?

flowertea Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 hi,flower..is it true? i am also a motor mechanic without 2years experience,and i have c3,c4 and diploma.now i am so confused about the definition of this 2 years experience.if your colleague has got PR with only one year experience,then does it mean the 515 policy just doesn't affect this occupation-motor mechanic only?what about those mechanics who have only half a year exp or no exp?are they still not affected by it as well? He got his visa granted without work experience required by policy statement. He got his diploma from tafesa which all units relating to automotive repair, unlike those cookery diploma ended up with focus in management study instead. Apologised if im wrong on this. I reckon this bring consideration for co. he was on 485 visa n hasnt hav his skill assess. Well, i really cant tell if this anzsco not affected by policy. But is a good sign though.
