aussiepr Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Thank you Blossom, As i am still waiting for my visa over 11 months. Your words give me hope. Did IMMI finally give them any exnplian regarding to such a long time waiting? Hey will i understand ur frustration. We few people aare in same situation. Just keep in mind visa application lodged with never do not get lost. Immi certainly finalizes every application. They have their own way of working. No one really knows why some application takes way too longer. Here i would like to point out few possible reason: # internal and external checks. They randomly pick up some files then put on checks. They run series of checks. Checks patterns are different for different applicants for different reason. # another possible reason (im not sure though) sometimes they transfer file from one office to another. They said to me it goes back to queue again and takes extra time to allocate a CO. # there could be many other reasons u name it. As they have to handle thousands of applications. I know its unfair, Its frustrating for us, We are actually dying inside, our pr relates to many decision in our personal life etc. But we cant do anything. We have accept this cruel truth. I suggest u to stop thinking about it. Today or tomorrow u will get it. It will come for sure. I also suggested u in the pm that get ur MA to call immi. If u call insead of mailing u will get more clear ans. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interllectual86 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Hi everyone, It's been ages since I've posted anything on here. I kind of got discouraged and lost interest in it after waiting months and months and then having my application refused. But there's been some recent development in my application that I'd like to share! So here's my timeline: I am located in South Australia. My application was at the Melbourne PSE office and it is Non-DRC. Occupation is Hospitality Manager. Nomination lodged with DIAC - 11 September 2012 RSMS (187) Direct Entry Non Decision-Ready visa lodged with DIAC - 11 September 2012 Acknowledgement of valid nomination received - 12 September 2012 Acknowledgement of valid visa application received - 12 September 2012 Bridging visa granted - 12 September 2012 Nomination lodged with RCB - 10 October 2012 Nomination approved by RCB - 13 November 2012 Case Officer allocated to Nomination - 9 May 2013 (8 months after lodging application) Nomination REFUSED - 2 August 2013 (11 months after lodging application) Visa REFUSED - 2 September 2013 Nomination appealed to MRT - 21 August 2013 Visa appealed to MRT - 12 September 2013 Notice from MRT to attend hearing - 26 February 2014 Hearing at MRT in Adelaide - 16 April 2014 Notice of Decision and Reasons from MRT - 15 July 2014 Outcome: The MRT has 'set aside' the refusal of the nomination and substituted the decision with an approval! The nomination is approved! The visa application has been remitted to Immigrations for processing So guys, I know it is difficult. Believe me, I know... But don't give up! I have no idea how long Immigrations are taking to process 187's at the moment, but I know the wait is stressful and difficult to cope with. But as with my application, the best advice I can give is to not give up. Fight for what you are seeking: permanent residency. Otherwise, what was the point in the first place? Why put yourself through the stress and put in all the time and effort and money and then just walk away if Immigrations says no? I know every case is different, but I didn't give up. And now? I have won my MRT appeal, my employers' nomination is now approved and I'm just waiting for Immigrations to process and grant my 187! The reason the nomination was refused in the first place was ridiculous and petty. The case officer that was allocated to the applications decided that the tasks and duties in my position were closer to a different position in the ANZSCO list on occupations. The thing is, ANZSCO didn't list any specific tasks or job duties for my particular position (ANZSCO code), so he went on a 'fishing expedition' to find another position that he felt was a closer match and refused the nomination on that basis. And as a result of the nomination being refused, the visa application was refused a month later as the visa couldn't be granted without the attached nomination being approved. If I didn't appeal both the nomination AND the visa application refusal with the MRT, my time in Australia would have been over. So the entire Migration Review Tribunal (MRT) process took nearly 11 months from start to finish, cost an extra $3208 ($1604 per appeal) plus the cost of a new migration agent to represent us / handle the appeal and make a submission/written argument.... but it was all worth it! So now... it's as if there was never a refusal. The nomination is approved and Immigrations has no further say in it! The visa application has been remitted to Immigrations and I'm back in the game! I think generally when you win your case at the MRT it's pretty quick though... maybe within a month? Hopefully my visa application will be allocated to a new case officer soon and they will begin assessing the application as they do. I suspect they will probably ask for a new visa medical, as it has been a long time since I completed the last one. They may ask be for new police clearance certificates as well. I hope they don't ask for a new Canadian PCC though, as that took 4 months last time... But I think it's just a matter of time and I'll FINALLY have my 187! Winning the MRT has brought me soooo much closer to getting my visa granted! If anyone needs any recommendations for a GREAT migration agent, I am happy to recommend Mark Northam (mnvisa.com) in Sydney. Mark is fantastic! I couldn't say enough good things about him. He's so professional and friendly and is in the know! He's very very knowledgeable and keeps you in the loop with everything. He handled my appeals to the MRT so well ! Thanks a million Mark! Good luck everyone Hi SonicBlue82, I'm going through the same process as you 187 regional sponsorship visa. At the moment it's in MRT and my file opened for nomination. My agent preparing all the documents according to ANZSCO code- Management Consultant. Please advice me what are the main documents I have to get from the company as Hardware Manager. And also I'm doubt about the hearing process. Need some help for go through it from your experience. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
