Guest Gollywobbler Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Hi All I spent quite a while yesterday trying to make sense of this latest bombshell. To start with I wondered whether clumsy drafting of Q11 in the FAQ might be leading us all up the garden path. http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-skilled-migration/pdf/faq-priority-processing.pdf However freebo then found and posted the table below, which does seem to confirm Q11: General Skilled Migration NB: The three priorities mentoned in the Table are the 3 CSL ones. We can be sure of this because the Table does not mention subclasses 121/856 (NS visas) or 119/857 (RSMS visas.) Earlier in this thread Alan Collett of Go Matilda said: Go Matilda News article: Go Matilda - Your Gateway to Australia - News I fear much of the backlog - resulting in the Minister's various directives and policy announcements - is being caused by large numbers of student visaholders who are now seeking permanent residency visas under the skilled program. So I tracked down the Student visa statistics on the DIAC website: Australian Immigration Fact Sheet 50. Overseas Students in Australia There seem to have been major increases in Student visa grants every year for the last few years and since many of the Students do 2 or 3 year courses, I can well believe that there might by now be a higher number of recent graduates than ever before in Oz, with many of them now applying for the various GSM visas or planning to soon. I reckon Alan is spot on about this and that the Student visa figures are what has caused the predicted timelines to blow out in the way that DIAC now estimate. Over on the British Expats thread George Lombard said: I would suggest freezing the thread until the text of the Minister's direction is available, I haven't seen that yet and I'm sure it will answer, or leave unanswered, all relevant questions. Waiting to see what the Minister actually said does make a lot of sense, so I tried to find that next but did not succeed. NB - Agents - Please see ComLaw and the Regulations. The definition of Migration Occupatiion in Demand in R1.03 was altered on 17th September: ComLaw Legislative Instruments - Migration Amendment Regulations 2009 (No. 11) (SLI 2009 No. 237) I haven't had time to investigate what it used to say but I am wondering whether the LI is the first step towards scrapping the MODL? Somebody on the BE thread said that the Minister tabled something in Parliament recently so I tried to track that down but again had no joy. However I did find this: http://www.aph.gov.au/SENATE/estimates/supp0910/info.pdf The Minister for Immi will be getting a grilling from the Senate Budget Estimates Committee on Tuesday 20th October. I've no idea what they will be discussing but at least one of the other Senators is bound to ask some searching questions about the 23rd September changes, I reckon, and more might emerge about why the Minister has altered the definition of Migration Occupation in Demand. I reckon that more detailed facts & figures might emerge via Hansard following the 20th October Committee. I don't know how promptly the transcripts are published after one of these Committees has met. I'll put some comments/thoughts/suggestions into a separate post later. Best wishes Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Collett Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 A problem with announcements such as the one yesterday is that an absence of accompanying statistical detail creates an atmosphere in which many look at worst case scenarios. Remember also that the CSL and MODL are presently under review, and we could see more occupations finding their way onto the CSL if the States and Territories generally identify shortages in certain occupations. At the coal face of processing I anticipate that case officers will progress certain prioritised categories, while others will be placed on temporary hold while the prioritised categories are cleared. So, as an example, only this morning we have had a request from a case officer progressing a priority category 4 visa application. I will make enquiries of the ASPC in an effort to identify when it is presently anticipated that the other priority categories will be first looked at, and the earliest visa applications that are presently being retained for UK based applicants for each priority category. This should give a better indication for those who are concerned. I can't guarantee a reply, but if I get one I will communicate details on this forum, and on Go Matilda News. Best regards.

Guest guest17301 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 If you send a blank email to adelaide processing centre this is what comes back, useful for the latest processing times..... GENERAL SKILLED MIGRATION ADELAIDE PROCESSING INFORMATION This is an automated e-mail response which provides updated information on skilled migration applications being processed by the Adelaide Skilled Processing Centre (ASPC). Please do not reply to this email address as this mailbox is not monitored. Contact details for the ASPC are listed below. IMPORTANT NOTICE Recent Changes to Priority Processing - 23 September 2009 The Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Chris Evans, has set new processing priorities for certain skilled migration visa applications. The new direction will apply from 23 September 2009 and applies to new applications, and those already lodged or in the final stages of processing, and replaces the previous Priority Processing Direction (No. 40) which commenced on 1 January 2009. The new direction gives priority to applicants who are sponsored by an employer, have a nominated occupation which is in critical need and are either sponsored by a state/territory government or by a family member. Different priority processing arrangements for Skilled-Graduate (Subclass 485) visa applicants apply. The Migration Act 1958 contains powers by which the Minister can consider and finalise visa applications in an order of priority that the Minister considers appropriate. Departmental officers are required to follow this Ministerial direction, which applies to every stage of visa processing. All General Skilled Migration (GSM) visas are subject to the new Ministerial direction, except for: · Skilled – Recognised Graduate (Subclass 476); · Skilled – Designated Area – Sponsored (Subclass 883); · Skilled – Regional (Subclass 887). The direction gives the following processing priorities (with highest priority listed first) to GSM applications: 1. applications from persons who are employer sponsored under the Employer Nominated Scheme and the Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme; 2. applications from persons who are nominated by a State/Territory government and have nominated an occupation on the Critical Skills List (CSL); 3. applications from persons who are sponsored by family and who have nominated an occupation on the CSL; 4. applications from persons who are neither nominated nor sponsored but who have nominated an occupation on the CSL; 5. applications from persons who are nominated by a State/Territory government and have not nominated an occupation on the CSL; 6. (i) applications from persons who have nominated an occupation on the Migration Occupation in Demand List (MODL); and (ii) applications from persons who are sponsored by family and have not nominated an occupation on the CSL; 7. all other applications are to be processed in the order in which they are received. The direction also gives the following processing priority to Skilled-Graduate (Subclass 485) visa applicants (with highest priority listed first): 1. applications from persons who have completed an Australian Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) at an Australian educational institution in Australia; 2. applications from persons who have nominated an occupation on the CSL; 3. applications from persons who have completed an Australian Bachelor degree and Australian Masters degree at an Australian educational institution in Australia; 4. applications from persons who have completed an Australian Bachelor degree and Australian Honours degree (at least upper second class level) at an Australian educational institution in Australia; 5. applications from persons who have completed either an Australian Bachelor degree or an Australian Masters degree at an Australian educational institution in Australia; 6. all other valid applications are to be processed in the order in which they are received. The complete list of occupations on the CSL is available on the department’s website: http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-skilled-migration/pdf/critical-skills-list.pdf Application Processing Times If your nominated occupation is on the Critical Skills List (CSL) and you have applied or will apply for an onshore or offshore GSM visa before the end of 2009, it is estimated that your visa application will be finalised within 12 months from your lodgement date. If your nominated occupation is not on the Critical Skills List (CSL) and you have applied for an offshore GSM visa or intend to apply for an offshore GSM visa later in 2009, it is unlikely that your visa application will be finalised before the end of 2012. If your nominated occupation is not on the CSL and you applied for an onshore GSM visa or intend to apply for an onshore GSM visa later in 2009, it is unlikely that your visa application will be finalised before the end of 2011. Your ‘nominated occupation' is the occupation you nominated at the time you lodged your application and cannot be changed. These application processing times are indicative only and are based on the current visa application rate, the Priority Processing Direction (in effect from 23 September 2009), and the availability of places in the Migration Program. Please do not contact the Department to request your application be exempted from the Minister’s Priority Processing Direction. Departmental officers must adhere to the Minister’s Direction and you will be contacted by the Department when your application is allocated to a case officer. Processing priorities are subject to change. Any changes to these priorities or processing times will be updated on the Department’s website at: What's New? Recent Changes in General Skilled Migration Priority Processing Exemptions Visa Subclasses 476 and 887 are exempt from the priority processing changes. Applications under these subclasses will continue to be processed in the order in which they were received by the Department – the following subclass by application lodgement date identifies cases currently being considered: Visa Subclass Month/Year Lodgement VF 476 (paper): 25 September 2008 VF 476 (e-lodged): 25 September 2008 VB 887 (paper): 7 July 2009 OTHER PROCESSING NEWS MEDICAL RESULTS If you have undertaken your medical examination at Health Services Australia (HSA), please do not post your medical results to us unless your case officer requests you to do so.

FOTG Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I am sitting here trying to get over the flu and have just blubber my heart out!! We are waiting for SS, we thought our visa would be granted over the next few months, so we have had police checks, medicals, sold the house(living with parents) and last week we both handed in our notice at work(good well payed jobs!!). All I can think now is what the hell have we done!!! We have flights booked for 28th dec as we were advised by our agent that worst case scenario we could get WHV until our visa came through. Now with these changes I don't know what to do, I can't stop crying and don't know how to tell my hubby, from the looks of it we are not on the CSL so does this mean we are looking at 2012?? Please anyone any advice?? Hi Lindseyf, sorry to hear you've done so much for the damn "secured path" according to the DIAC's previous policy. I strongly advise you to follow the link: http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/migration-issues/69397-new-changes-state-sponsored-migration-4.html#post583837, which Gill posted and explain your situation to the Ombudsman. Good luck to all who have been affected to the worse side. Kai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Que Sera Sera Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 All the agents are coming up with a delay of between 2-6 months so they are the experts and have seen this happen before so I have to leave my trust with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrangana Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 This is what I just posted on Kelly's WA thread. I know this news made we all frustrated including me. Anyway Don't worry, I guess soon next change may be replacement of CSl to FSL. As FSL results from the out come of the modl review, DIAC will consider more occupations with skill shortages in AU than current CSL. Otherwise they wouldn't achieve the objectives of MODL review. Surely withing another one or two months most of you will be in new FSL and quickly get the priority. So lets live with a new hope. Good luck to you all.

cartertucker Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Well my agent sent me an email late last nite, in which she said: Applications from people who are nominated by a State/Territory government whose nominated occupation is not listed on the CSL (Estimated Processing Time 3-4 Months) I am praying that this is the case.....:notworthy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellyjamie Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 i actually felt physically sick when i read this yesterday and i just wanted to give up. it just feels like yet another kick in the wotsits. i agree totally with IMP aswell excatly how long are we supposed to put our lives on hold waiting for that bloody visa to drop thru the inbox? we are praying seriously praying they look at this again and realise what a monumental cock up of a decision it is, because if we have to wait another 3 years our son will be egtting ready to sit his standard grades and we are not prepared to uproot him at that point so it would really be 4 years for us and that is just too long, so much could happen in that time. I had to laugh when i read the new priority list, employer sponsored first - great if you can actually secure a job offer in the current climate, and with 99% of jobs on seek stating you must have the right to work in oz to apply!!!!!! so thats going to be easy state sponsored on CSL - considering every bloody state has a different csl to the main one how on earth are states such as SA, NT, ACT and TAS meant to populate when they have a limited small pool of people they can get there within a year!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND finally my wonderful category state sponsor with no crappy csl!! this is a fantastic category to be in, seeings as 2 days ago we were 2nd priority and now wree 5th, you just gotta love that senator evans, what a guy, this is going to work because states such as those mentioned above are really going to love the idea of sponsoring you knowing that your visa will not be issued for 3 years!!! Evans obviously believes these states have crystal balls and can tell that in 3 years there will still be a shortfall of my occupation and so they will be happy to sponsor and wait 3 years! today i have woke up totally livid but also despondent, why the hell am i jumping thru hoops naked and backwards trying to get into this country, yes we loved it and yes its going to or would have provided a wonderful life for our family but i just dont know if we can live handle the wait and uncertainty of it all anymore. Our agent believs things will change again and urged us yesterday to stay calm and positive and to keep on going, i have to say yesterday i was so glad we have an agent. Seeing him on friday for a pep talk then im getting sloshed on staurday and we,ll see what immigration joys monday brings! love to all and and chin up everyone xxx:hug::hug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking it always be good if we knew how much people are actually on CSL per month and how many applications can DIAC handle per month??? More transparency. From what I gather the way they are calculating it is based on the number of applicants in the top 4 catagories and how many visas they know are allowed to be allocated for this coming year. There are not that many applications in the top 3 catagories and the 4th ( the CSL ) will be done a whole lot faster when Diac concentrate wholly on them, so Diac are currently dealing with Aprils CSl applications.

Guest Bill_er_Bong Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Q9: It seems likely that some people will find that they have spent a lot of money on meds in anticipation of swift end-stage processing of their applications but that this new change may result in those applicants having to have their meds done again. Like me!!!! Hahahahahahah!!! In the last week, I just spent £590 on x-rays, meds and police checks...!!! I was actually thinking of postponing the meds on Monday as I and also one of the kids had a bit of a cold... DAMN!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!! And that just rubs your nose in it when you have to deal with the major pain of going from roughly 2 months to visa time to perhaps 2 -3 years till visa time!!! Painful isn't it folks? I have to admit, I was expecting some kind of further change to the system, and thats why I went for the pre-load option with meds and PCCs so as to speed things through as fast as possible. However, I wasn't expecting this!!! We got SS secured at the start of the month (non CSL), so we figured we were a couple of months away from a CO. Anyway, best of luck everyone, especially you "SS non-CSLers" like us... Thanks for your opinions on this Gill, as ever an unbeatable trove of information on these matters... I'll be back later with more thoughts.... :realmad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IC, based on ur information, there're 5 months CSL applicants left for DIAC to deal with right now. My concern is: can they actually consume these number in a short period of time, like in 3 months? 6 months? Optimistically speaking, after they finish those CSL cases, they could deal with our SS cases along with new CSL cases. But as far as I know, there are heaps of CSL applicants coming at end of this year who finish their Professional year program from which they will qualified to be listed on the CSL.

Guest Impatient Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 There is a part of me that wants to think that the CSL is so small now, that it could not possible take them that long to get through existing and expected applications. But that thinking does me no good at all, same as most people on here I am working to a timeline and this will cause certain changes to be made - will I have the flexibility to adapt if the timeline gets shorter again? God knows. Hey ho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaz36 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Hi, Perhaps you are right in thinking that if all efforts are focused on processing CSL's then they'll get thru them in no time, then end of Oct/Nov they will review the MODL, remove the CSL, and introduce a FSL.

Guest Rhubarb Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 There is a news story about this here, they say there were no press releases about this at all, it just appeared on the DIAC page.
