Guest Doc Googles Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Great information.. !!! what does this week processing mean? My application is dated 23 Jun 2009 ( i submitted re-assesmetn results on 20 JUN 2011) .. still not picked up.. .. Hi DCAL - Thanx for doing this. If DIAC continue to work through applications at the current rate they will hav cleared their backlog by end of 2011. This is in keeping with my migration agent who told DIAC would have everything cleared by Jan / Feb 2012. I lodged my 176 Family Sponsor Jun 2011 and my agent told me I would hav in next Fb a the latest but she expects it earlier. Looking at your table I ll have it in Oct 2011.

Guest dholden Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 today I got an email from my case officer informing me that my 175 application has been refused on the following grounds: quoting extract from "Decision Record" PDF: SKILLS ASSESSMENT The prescribed criteria for the grant of a subclass 175 (Skilled - Independent) visa are set out in Schedule 2 of the Regulations. Clause 175.212 is a criterion to be satisfied at the time of application. Invalid Skills Assessment obtained AFTER lodgement It is a legislative requirement that you provide evidence of having a favourable skills assessment for your nominated occupation at the time that you lodged your application. As you have not demonstrated that at the time of making the application your skills had been assessed as suitable for your nominated occupation you do not satisfy the requirements of subclause 175.212(1). ----end quote----- I lodged my skills assessment with the Australian Computing Society (ACS) on 11/8/10 and my visa application on 6/9/10. So it looks like the skills assessment must be complete prior to lodgment, this appears to be an oversight on my part, but I am struggling to see how the online application allowed me to select "no" on the "have you completed your skills assessment?" page and then complete my lodgment (and payment). Effectively my lodgment was invalid from day 1.... I know of another person in the same boat who like me assumed we could complete the skills assessment post lodgment. Can anyone offer any advice or assistance? Thanks, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IoanHoria Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I'm sorry Dan. This was your mistake and unfortunatly you can't change it... Make quickly another application, using the docs that you've obtain for the old one... Other then this advice, just that I'm sorry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other then this advice, just that I'm sorry... thanks for the response, I realize this is my mistake, but it is exactly that...I'd expect immigration would at least ensure the prerequisites are met prior to allowing me to lodge. I do not have $2500 spare to simply reapply without at least appealing my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IoanHoria Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Usually they inform you if there is a problem with your application, but only in situations which might be missinterpreted, or when your provided documents seems to be false, or not in concordance with your statements... In cases like yours, the law states clear that you must have a suitable skill assesment to apply for visa, so there is nothig foggy... I won't bother with making appeal at the Tribunal, or bothering the CO with requests...you have disregarded one of the first immigration law... Sorry man, but it really seems that either you make a new application or try some other country...:sad::sad::sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogdan Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 What's the point of the "have you completed your skills assessment?" question then? Any decent web application validates user input according to a set of business rules which in this case are the prerequisites that need to met in order to be eligible for the 175 visa. It's very convenient for them to allow ineligible candidates to apply as the fee is non-refundable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Doc Googles Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 DIAC currently anticipates assigning a case officer to any unallocated case by 30/9/2011 or 30/09/2010???? Probably 30/09/2008 - of course 2011 ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not have $2500 spare to simply reapply without at least appealing my case. :cry::cry: Maybe its just me but if they asked the question if your skills assessment has been completed on the application and you clearly stated "no" I would not leave it at that and just accept the decision. You have nothing to loose by trying to appeal the decision. Either that or lodge a new application...so if I were you..I'd try fighting a bit first (in the nicest possible way offcourse:goofy:) Or maybe get advice from an agent:unsure: I can recommend a good agent if you decide to go that route.

Good luck! that's the route I'm going to take, I'm not sure how I'll go based on the feedback so far, but I've got to try. I've just checked the online application: https://www.ecom.immi.gov.au/visas/app/uu/cs On the second screen you are asked: Skills Assessment Has a relevant assessing authority assessed your skills as suitable for your nominated skilled occupation? I am able to select "No" then "Next" and the form continues. I am not disagreeing with anyone that says I've not fulfilled my legal obligation...agreed it appears I haven't. But I have followed an official DIAC form which completes with me handing over $2500. This in my opinion obligates DIAC to create an online application that accurately warns of the risks of not doing certain things (at the right time). If you could private message me your agent contact I'd appreciate that!. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lori2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Dan, sorry to hear this. I wanted to lodge my application on october 2010 but my agent told me to wait until my skills assesment was ready, which is the reason why I didn't lodge it until march 2011!!!! It is really sad what happened, but I checked this on the internet site and actually says the assesment is a requisite before lodging. I don't think there is much to do now, but you can always try.

Guest koko1 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Hi Dholden, I strongly agree with your idea of appealing your case if you can. It's DIAC's fault because the essence of the online application questions is help guide you to know if you have met the requirment before you are finally allowed to make payment. Men, this is **** DIAC is funny at times. Well I wish you good luck and hope they will consider. But I used hear that if you apply for 176, 175, 475 which are for those outside OZ and it gets to refusal that you can't appeal because it's visa applied for in the country but oustside. Well let your agent advise you well but make sure you know what to do so that you don't waste your money again. Take care! Regards Koks that's the route I'm going to take, I'm not sure how I'll go based on the feedback so far, but I've got to try.
