3 years after rpl.

Well you just said above that you don't so make up your mind.

[Ddl]

And also it didn’t say any where the experience has to be after your qualification. That was the whole idea when I applied for my visa. Otherwise why would I apply for visa where I’m not eligible.

They will be looking at what you have now. If you have 3 years of experience after RPL now you just need to show this, and that's it.

If it’s true than I should be fine. But how can I be sure that they will be looking what I have now.

Hi there,

Just wondering I don't have an immi account but I usually check from Vevo.

What if  I create one immi account then MA will not be able to access anymore? Or it will both separate to each other?

Also just wants know are they now processing files bit faster as compared to a few months earlier?

For me it has been 18 months since I lodged DE, is it recommended to call the department to get an update in regards to file progression?

Would you Please able to let me know?

Thanks.

BVA is a bridging visa. I suggest U carry on with Vevo don't have to make an immi account coz once you do that you would have a whole new load of questions....it's like opening a can of worms that U wish U didn't open. And since you have done without it for 18 months you can do without it for another few...Ur going to get your visa shortly so just be patient....

Hi 1985,  I applied my nom on feb but applied my visa on June after the rule changed. During that time i just had 2 years of experience after rpl but 3.5 year all together. And at that time there was no where written that the 3 years experience has to be after you receive rpl. But now immi wants me to show 3 years of experience after qualification (rpl). If they are looking for what do I have now then it’s okey I have 3 years of experience after rpl. But i just had 2 years after rpl when I applied on June 2018. So I don’t know what to do. So Please guys any advise would be very helpful.

Only immigration can advise you on it. I suppose because if they count from nomination date then you are fine and you will get the visa.

In case they count from your visa application date then u might get a refusal as rules changed in March and it clearly mentioned 3 year experience in nominated occupation.

Hi tosh14, yes it is 3 years work experience but I thought it’s overall 3 years experience not post qualification. I just calculated and now I have 34 months of post qualification experience. Does this work or it has to be 3 years when I applied?

 I was under the impression you had to meet the requirements at the time of application. But I don’t know that for certain. Given no one else seems to know why don’t you post your query on the main visa chat page and perhaps one of the MAs who post regularly on here might see it and reply?

Hello everyone 

Not a good news but wants to share and wants to get some advice from all of u . 

My nomination got refused. 

Reason : not genuine position 

I m very depressed I don’t know what to do 

my MA said I should apply for AAT . He said there is 90% chances to win as my employer is also what’s me to go for AAT and he is also ready to go with me . MA said they will give strong evidence of genuine need . 

Now what should I do . I applied visa and nomination March 2018

Don’t stress at all, just appeal at the AAT. You have your MA and employer’s support.

Build a strong case and you might even win based on papers, without appearing.

With the recent elections more and more refusals are imminent, based on political reasons.

You will be fine.

Yes absolutely possible, if your Agent builds a strong case and submits the right documents, proofs, letters etc. the defend the case.

Don’t be scared, focus your energy on the appeal and be positive.

I want to share good news with you guys, finally after 24 months I have received my golden email on 16/05/19. 

RCB: 17/04/17

Nomination: 14/05/17

Visa: 16/05/17 

Nomination approval: 20/02/19 (no request) 

S56: 20/02/19 updated health checks and police checks 

requested docs submitted on 08/03/19

S56 second request: 28/03/19 English test and again AFP (IELTS score as officer mentioned it has expired they require new ones, my MA sent an email to DOHA that according to legislation applicant only requires competent English at the  time of submission. As expected no reply received from department I rushed to appear for IELTS, I sat for L/R/W but same day we gotta reply from Department that they don’t require IELTS but what’s a point I already paid for an exam and you can imagine the trauma I was carrying out). 

Anyways another S56 (i was like seriously)- 08/04/19 now they want me to send PCC for New Zealand (as I declared on my application I visited twice for less than 20 days in total because my wife is from NZ, as far as I know about  current legislation you must submit PCC if you have lived in a country for more than 90 days. Any how I contacted Ministry of Justice NZ  about police check they processed my request same day without any charge. How helpful are they! 

Submitted NZ PCC on 09/04/19 

finally after good 24 months I received great news! Remember my submission date? (16/05/17) PR granted on 16/05/17.

Country: HR 

Occupation: Community Worker

State: WA 

Processing team: Team 07 WA (4 case officers) 

Organisation: Non-profit 

organisation sponsored 10+ employees for 187 

All nominations approved same day on 20/02/19 therefore, 3 employees received grant notices. 

Immigration visited and did detail inquiry about the business, genuine need and duties of each employee. 

My personal experience with immigration is not great as I have seen some people applied after me received decisions 2-3 months earlier than mine, which confirms DOHA do not have a transparent and straightforward mechanism. 

My dear friends let me tell you how hard I waited for this grant, I used to check Immi account at least three times a day but there were days when I wanted to withdraw my application because of processing time. As we all know 187 is all about waiting game and I am sure many of you have families (kids etc) this waiting is creating  more and more stress everyday but again enjoy your life with your family we don’t know what’s gonna happen tomorrow. 

Never doubt your abilities for a moment in life...Wish you good luck and ALL THE BEST!!!
