WAITINGGAME Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 EMAIL FROM AGENT TODAY !! Hi Spencer, I hope you're well. I'm just writing to keep you in the loop about what's happening (or not) as far as DIAC and your application goes. At this point, we are waiting for a further announcement from DIAC concerning their review of the MODL and CSL lists, which will have a further impact on the priority processing structure of visa applications. Until we hear something more, the situation remains as per DIAC’s previous announcement in September, however we know there will be a further announcement when the review is finished. Looking at the 'frequently asked questions' page on DIAC's website, you can see that the MODL is due to be finalised in “late 2009”, and arrangements for the transition to the revised legislation will be determined at that point, along with arrangements for the phasing out of the Critical Skills List. DIAC have said this will be announced once the review is finalised, so we can reasonably expect to hear something before the end of the year. We will be in touch when further news has been made available. As backdrop to this review, we are aware that several states are now openly stating their dissatisfaction with the previous arrangements DIAC put in place in September, and are lobbying DIAC for a reinstatement of government sponsored visas as a priority path to Australia. While we can only speculate on the impact this may have at this stage, we remain hopeful that DIAC will make some allowance for applicants whose skills have been identified as ‘in demand’ at a state level.

WAITINGGAME Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Hi All Bit of info from my agent you all might like to see, only applies to people with children age 15 yrs and above. Thanks I’m writing to raise your awareness of a potential issue following the changes to priority processing made by the Department of Immigration this past September. While we anticipate that further announcements may be made in the near future which could change things again, we need to work with the legislation and policy as it stands now, and prepare for the possibility that it may remain in place for some time. With that in mind, one of the issues we are aware of is that of dependant applicants growing beyond dependency before the application is finalised. This email is therefore for applicants who have a dependent child aged 15 or above on the application. If this is not you, please ignore this email as it does not apply to your situation. Under current legislation, once a child reaches the age of 18, dependency is no longer assumed and must be proven at the end of the process (i.e. when the visa application is assessed and a decision is made). It is possible that DIAC will begin to assess applications as per an applicant's circumstances at the time of lodgement. Should they announce this, or introduce some other form of leniency or provisions to account for applicants with dependants, then we do not anticipate this will be an issue. However, should DIAC choose to keep the requirement that any dependants REMAIN dependent throughout the application process and at the end of processing when assessing applications and your child is 18 or over at that time, you may be asked to prove that they remain dependent on you. If you are unable to prove this, there is no guarantee that they will remain eligible to remain on the application. Dependency is demonstrated through the provision of a form which we would send you at that time, and third party evidence such as confirmation that they are in full time education or require financial support to meet their basic needs. If they are in work this would need to be declared, although payslips are generally accepted as proof of low income. We will be in touch at the time to go over this in more detail if it becomes an issue. At this stage, we are simply encouraging you to keep it in mind so that if there is a significant wait before your application is processed, appropriate decisions can be made to ensure that migrating dependents remain verifiably dependent. This issue, among several others, is one which we hope DIAC will address in the near future, and at that time we will be in touch with firmer directions on this issue. Until that time, you are welcome to discuss this with your caseworker however we will not be able to provide you with any further information until it becomes available from DIAC themselves. Rest assured, as soon as there is any news at all, we will be in touch to let you know. Kind Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
