Hi Claire

 

You got me excited there when I saw you post!!. Dont worry we were 18 weeks waiting so I wreckon you will be getting your SS really soon. I saw that you have been appointed a case officer aswell. Is that good news or does it mean anything significant for you?

 

Suzanne

Hi Suzanne

 

We sent off the copies of our passport bio pages for me & our daughter yesterday along with a word copy of the commitment statement and we got a reply this morning thanking us for sending these promptly and that she will finalise our ACT SS asap.

 

The case officer appointed is for our ACT SS not our visa, i wish it was for our visa but I think that is a long way off yet.

 

Hoping tomorrow brings good news.

Hooray, woke up this morning to an email from ACT saying that our ACT SS was successful.

 

Now we just need to work out how we switch from 176 family to 176 ss with DIAC.

 

Looks like today is gonna be a good day. It is OH's birthday, we both have the day off work and we are going for a scan at the hospital to meet our new little baby who's is due in Jan 2011.

hi all,

 

Newbie here with dreams to move to Australia, I would need some help from guys here for MY ACT sponsorship. Could anyone here be generous enough to share your ACT study for state sponsorship.

 

I have filled my ACS application last month and IELTS last week, now trying to work on the required docs for ACT SS. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

cheers,

Russell :)

Hi,

I sent my ACT Sponsorship off about a month ago, still awaiting reply, what in particular were you looking for? Is there a PM option on this site?

Yeah pretty much the same here. I received an e mail confirmation of the receipt of my commitment statement. My Documents were cleared by DHL & are on the way to the chief ministers office!! :)

Well.... now it's ''sit back have a chilled drink & try to relax'' time to see if i can make it prior to the July 1st deadline. The worst part of its is there's so much that's unclear about the new rules!

Hi all,

I am new here. I applied for ACT sponsorship through an agent on 09th Feb 2011. I am still waiting for an answer.

Just wondering does it normally takes this long for the nomination?

I submitted mine on 1 Mar. They say 60 working days. According to the ACT government website they are currently processing applications received on 17 Jan. However, it has said that for the last 2 weeks.

Hi there, if you look on the 'Live in Canberra' website, there is a link to the processing times for sponsorship applications and it tells you the dates of the applications they are working on at the moment. It IS working days to 30 days is really 6 weeks and so on. They are pretty much on the ball. Best of luck

They have just updated the date on the site. It now says that as of 27 April, they are processing applications received on 1 Feb 2011. As it took them about 5 weeks to update it the last time, we will just have to wait and see when thy get around to us.

Hi There,

 

I applied for ACT SS on 25 Feb it will be 9 weeks this friday, we met with JA from ACT in Feb and she said 60 working days which makes it May 20th, so lets see. :cute:

 

To be honest though the wait is killing me. :arghh:

We submitted on the 14th April, they said they would prioritise our application because I have a job offer and start work on a 457 visa in July but when they sent the confirmation of receipt through it said normal priority so who knows...?!

 

Currently waiting for our 457 AND our state sponsorship!! Waiting, waiting, waiting it's all we ever seem to do!!!
