I believe the processing time will also depend on the state too. Because VIC n NSW will have plenty of AAT files to look into>> wherelese WA n SA will have less files. According to general processing time, I was expecting my AAT file to open end of this year... but my AAT File was opened in 14months and finalised 4hrs... lol still I cannot believe how it happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sameer 120 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 On 16/04/2019 at 06:23, MNT said: Reason for Nomination Refusal:- Director of the Business is currently working in the business, therefore NO need of a Retail Manager. But the real story is The business is new and hired me for the position of Retail Manager. At the time of lodgement, Director was helping out the business by covering some shifts when required, reason the business hired me is because they are a new couple, they wanted to start their family life too (this was given in writing at the time of lodgement). The crazy Case Officer from WA Immigration looked at my file and assumed, the Director is still working therefore they don’t need a Retail Manager and refused the Nomination. Also they mentioned it’s a Retail Supervisor Level position. VISA REFUSAL REASON:- simple Nomination was refused, therefore Visa got refused automatically. AAT:- they requested further documents Related to Business. We submitted that to our agent, and agent typed a bloody strong argument letter. Within 4 hours agent got an email saying the Nomination is approved. Didn’t go for hearing. Normally when AAT looks at the file, they will call you for a hearing, then if they think it’s Genuine, they will send it back to Immigration to re-consider their decision. But in my case, AAT itself approved it straight away. That was the magic of my Agent. The Refusal was an unfair decision, therefore I’m pretty sure RETAIL MANAGERS from WA, SA, and NT can fight for it as long as your agent is Strong n Experienced. The AAT agent I went is different to the one who submitted my Nomination and Visa in 2016. All what I can tel you guys is make sure your agent is genuinely working for your case. If not, NO POINT. Coz this is by experience I’ve been through. Any Questions WELCOME.... Who is agent in SA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My agent doesn't upload the lastest financial documents leading to the immi refused without any further requests, it's devastating after watiting for 21 months. I'm trying to look for a new reliable agent to go on AAT. It seems like the processing time is so long again. Such a mental breakdown honestly.

Wai Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Hi MNT, Congratulations for your AAT case approval. I am totally in the same boat as you and I am in SA too and my ma was second appointed based in Sydney as my previous MA in Adelaide. my agent just submitted all the documents requested from AAT today. I have been waiting 14 months since AAT application lodged and I wish I can get this positive response in 1 day without hearing. Wish me luck and I will share my case later with you.

You got you nomination approved but not the visa yet, correct? Was there a reason why the tribunal didn’t set aside your visa refusal decision straight away?

Was there a reason why the tribunal didn’t set aside your visa refusal decision straight away? Hi Cippalippa, Yes you are correct, only my NOMINATION was approved by AAT. According to my agent, AAT will look at only the main file. Which was our company Nomination was Refused. So we argued against that decision and AAT straightaway remitted the decision and send the file back to Immigration to reconsider the Visa approval. AAT cannot approve both, because we argued only for Nomination. If my Nomination was approved earlier and then if I have applied for Visa Appeal, AAT would have approved. Therefore now Immigration Department has requested for further documents, before they approve the Visa. hopefully will get it ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But your agent’s argument against the refusal should be VERY STRONG. If that’s good, then you don’t need to worry anything about your AAT. Btw did you say you applied from SA?

I agreed good agent is a must to win the case. Congrats Happy for you. you will hear from them in 2 weeks time. If you don’t hear back from Immigration by the 16th of May... shoot them an email saying my Nomination has been approved by AAT. My Visa File will be forwarded back to Your department or you would have already received. Please let me know what would be the process and prep edits from there onwards. soon as you send that email, the idiots will look into your file and send you an email for S56 (requesting more information). Mainly they will ask is AFP HOME COUNTRY POLICE report if you have been there since you applied for 187 MEDICAL (if it’s expired) if you think your Medical was done 2 years ago, I would suggest you to do the Medicals again... coz it’s very difficult to get an appointment in Adelaide BUPA. Currently I am in Victoria, came to do my Medicals. These are the documents they mainly ask, and this is what they asked for me too. Btw who was the AAT officer who approved your nomination?? Is it P******R E**********N?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Ring3018, Their main subject of the Letter sent to my Agent was PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION, Such As BAS, JOB DESCRIPTION, RCB, SO n SO>> FOR ALL THESE MY AGENT GAVE A HARSH reply saying everything is on Immi File pls refer to that.. but I would like to submit an argument to the AAT Officer and he submitted his own argument stating the mistakes what the previous Case Officer has made and they are unfair, therefore the Nomination Refusal is not a FAIR DECISION.

Now what the best I can do should I go for AAT or find another ways. thanks Sorry to hear about your Refusal. Immigration is treating every application as Forge and refusing it without requesting further documents. But if your case is genuine, if your RCB was approved and you have been working for the employer, I would suggest you to go for AAT with a good agent. Because you don’t have much time left to decide or apply for any other visa. After applying for AAT, you can work on your Nomination File with your Current Agent or New Agent. You will easily have minimum of 12 months to prepare your documents for this Nomination or any other visa options. But saying that, if your NOMINATION is Refused, your Visa also will be refused in few weeks. If your visa get refused, you will not be able to apply for another type of Visa ON-shore. You will definitely have to exit the country and wait for a decision. According to my knowledge and experience you have only one option, apply for AAT straightaway, but your employer has to support your 200% throughout the process. let me know if you need any help, I’ll try my best. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
