Guest BKP Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 hi.. i keep reading posts on this site regularly, and found it very helpful. this is my first post and i hope someone will clear my doubts.... my state sponsorship application comes in normal priority, which means it takes about 30 working days for processing. where as now it has been 55 days, and i have not received any response. is anyone facing the same problem? ----------------- ACS skill assessment(ASCO 2231-11) - 26/06/2009, ACT SS applied on - 12/10/2009, ACT SS granted - Waiting!!

lavender776 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 You have probably already seen this, but if not, have a look at the processing times document: Business and Industry Development - Application Processing Times Currently, normal applications that were received upto 7 Oct are being processed.

My application was dated as being received 22nd September, but I sent it a couple of weeks before that. Hope that helps you to work out a timescale.

Guest toops Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Still waiting.... very patiently like a good girl. My brother goes to Adelaide in January the lucky bugger. he is in the Police and got employer sponsorship. It only took 3 months for him to get his visa. Still... all good things come to those who wait. :-) Merry Christmas everyone. Let's all wish for a nice hot one next year. :-)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest toops Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 is anybody else waiting for ACT SS Approval...? I know it's frustrating, we just sat tight and waited and waited. I have my fingers crossed that you get some good news soon. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surhythms Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Hi BKP I noticed that you are the same ASCO code as my OH and we are waiting for ACS results to come back and then we are going to apply for SS aswell. What do you think about the job opportunities in ACT for that role. Do you think ACT will put that ASCO on their state migration plan? We are all confused now and hoping that we get to Oz - we have been planning this for over a year now and we dont want to wait 3 or 4 years for the visa to come through Suzanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virtual_bajwa Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Ladies and Gentleman, This is a very tricky and confusing situation in this case. Only some senior members can solve this issue. Guys, Here is my time line..... HRC|Desigraned Area Sponsonsored -Class UZ Subclass 496-Provisional|30.08.07|Ack on 24.1.08|C.O. 20.10.09|Medical-08.08|PCC-09.09|Job veri-3.09.09|Visa Grant-Waiting(Category 6)Non CSL,NOn MODL Now I would like to apply for ACT sponsorship. As I fall under this state list.As U all must have read my detailed timeline. This is a provisional visa. My agent says u can not apply for state sponsorship in this category(I mean under 496 visa).Can somebody answer some of the questions here.. 1. How much cost will be involved If I go for state sponsorship( As my bother who sponsored me is in Victoria not in ACT)? 2. How much time it would take to processing of this visa class? 3. Should I refer to my earlier application if I apply for new state sponsorship?What effect it will make it on my new application? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant answer all of your questions but if you go for state sponsorship the cost is approx 285 AUD but you must also show that you have 20000 AUD in your bank account for the last three months and 10000 for each each dependant. As you have already applied for a visa I think you would be low priority and it would take 3-4 months for your SS to be approved I cant answer your third question sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
