Some of the facts that have been alarming is the high refusal rate of 187 RSMS Visas. There has been an increase from 13% in 2016 to 50% of visa applications being refused in 2018!!

wait4visa Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 On 2/10/2018 at 14:44, Eelo said: Hey everybody, I have been reading this thread for a long time now and thought I could add my own stone to that big wall of waiting. I've applied for a 187 as restaurant manager on the 5th of August 2016, my nomination was approved almost instantly but my visa has not been processed since then. I reached the 18 months of waiting time some days ago and it feels really desperate at times. I lodged my application in WA, I have been working at that place since July 2016, and have been hoping for an answer from the immigration since March 2017. It helps somehow to know I am not the only one in this situation, but it also frustates me to have been in that position for so long now. So good luck to everybody here, waiting as well. If I had to think of one lesson taught through that process, that would be to stay patient for what you are longing for. yeah thats true , I applied same as R.M. in Oct 2016 still waiting for visa to be approved , heard rumours these days immi refusing files with shity reason (there is not need ) . Anyone out there heard such thing??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true, they made us paid a big amount of money, took 2 years to wait, only approved the occupations level 1 quickly and then refused 50% other "not important" occupations based on assumptions 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luisy Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Someone here have been ever refused after wait more than 2 years ?? The common factor i see is that refusals usually don’t wait for more than a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420dream Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) Just FYI guys, today friend of mine got her nomination and visa approve on the same day within few hours difference. AFAIK she applied on december 2016, LR country and work as pattiserie on the same company as me. Mine is November 2016, cook and still waiting without any update. I hope my information will bring a bit zing for those who are struggling including myself Edited February 22, 2018 by 420dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarmenChung Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 My timeline: RCB handed in 9/1/2018 RCB approved 19/1/2018 Nomination and 187 visa applied 24/1/2018 Immi asked us (me and my hubby) to go for medical check on 7/2/2018!!! And we have done it on 14/2/2018 Did it mean anything as immi asked us for something? We are on 476 visa and applied onshore. Our x-ray result was reused. I am a remedial massage therapist in WA. So scared every day. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
