Rhian 0 Posted April 29 Hello, My husband has this week successfully completed his stage 2 technical interview. Is there anyone else out there who is going through the process currently and can inform us as to the timescale for a date for the practical assessment? We have been told there is a large backlog to deal with and to expect long delays. thank you in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrussell 2,249 Posted May 1 I have had well qualified clients in similar circumstances abandon their applications and take a refund after waiting 12 months + . The relevant assessing authority was not even answering the phone at the time. Westly Russell Registered Migration Agent 0316072 www.pinoyau.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhian 0 Posted May 1 @wrussell oh no really? That’s not the news we wanted to hear! Was that vetassess? It was our agency that told us there was a back log not vetassess themselves. We wouldn’t be backing out our application but that is a ridiculous time to wait! Especially when people have already paid. Is that from last year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrussell 2,249 Posted May 2 Quote Was that vetassess? Yes! My clients paid my professional fee, stage 1 and stage 2 and lost the first 2 of these payments when they applied (and presumably were granted) a refund of the stage 2 payment. They hoped in vain for refund of all the fees paid to VETASSESS. Westly Russell Registered Migration Agent 0316072 www.pinoyau.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhian 0 Posted May 3 @wrussell hmm that’s naughty of them! We hopefully it won’t be that long! Do they fly them over to do the assessments is that why it was put on hold? If so now they are open then can have them hear for an x amount of time and get through the assessments. He’s done the 1st stage online chat so hopefully won’t be too long for the face to face practical! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
