IMPORTANT INFORMATION

 

 

This mailbox handles enquiries about applications under the Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) and Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (RSMS).

 

 

It is important that you read this entire email as it provides answers to many questions about ENS/RSMS processing. Please be aware that if your query is addressed by this email or does not relate to an ENS/RSMS application already lodged you will not receive an individual response.

 

 

If your enquiry is urgent and relates to an ENS or RSMS case currently with the Parramatta Processing Centre you can expect a reply within 5 working days.

 

 

 

 

ALLOCATION TIMEFRAMES

 

 

Pre 1 July 2012 Applications

 

 

The network is currently allocating applications for assessment as below:

 

 

Processing Centre

ENS

RSMS

Parramatta

28 June 2012

6 June 2012

Melbourne

1 April 2012

1 April 2012

Perth

28 June 2012

26 April 2012

Applications declared as “Decision Ready” by registered migration agents continue to receive priority allocation. However, due to the unprecedented number of applications lodged in June 2012 we cannot provide an estimated allocation timeframe.

 

 

If your application was lodged before the dates listed above please explain this in your email and we will respond to you as soon as possible.

 

 

We are working through our large caseload in the most efficient manner possible and thank you for your patience during this busy period.

Post 1 July 2012 electronically lodged Applications

 

 

Due to the large influx of applications in June 2012, our capacity to allocate post July 2012 electronic applications has been affected. Decision Ready applications are a priority. We are currently allocating

e-lodged applications received July-August 2012.

 

 

Attachments for e-lodged applications

 

 

We appreciate that there have been some challenges around e-lodging attachments.

All supporting documentation for e-lodged applications however should be uploaded through the e-lodge system as they will be automatically filed and linked to your case.

 

 

Attachments forwarded by other means have been known to go astray causing delays in the finalisation of the application. Please ensure that you are familiar with the advice around attachments on the DIAC website.

 

 

Information/documents specifically requested by a case officer should be emailed directly to that case officer.

 

 

PROCESSING TIMEFRAMES

 

 

Once your application is allocated to a case officer they will contact you within 7 working days of your application being allocated.

 

 

If you have not been contacted by a case officer, and your application was lodged after the above dates, then it has not yet been allocated.

 

 

There are a range of factors that can impact the processing time of an application, including:

 

 

- whether the application was complete at time of lodgement;

- how quickly you respond to requests to provide documentation;

- complications obtaining health clearances;

- if police checks haven’t been completed they may take significant time to obtain; and

- checks with third parties to verify claims made in an application.

 

 

The Department’s published service standards for the processing of ENS/RSMS applications can be found at: http://www.immi.gov.au/about/charters/client-services-charter/visas/8.0.htm'>http://www.immi.gov.au/about/charters/client-services-charter/visas/8.0.htm

 

 

While we attempt to finalise all applications as soon as possible, the service standards acknowledge that 25% of cases will be finalised outside of these time frames.

 

 

INTERESTED IN APPLYING FOR ENS/RSMS?

 

 

You will not receive a response to your email if your query relates to any of the following scenarios. Please refer to the following information and where applicable re-direct your query as instructed below.

 

 

Information about applying for ENS/RSMS

 

 

The processing centre is not able to respond to pre-lodgement enquiries. The following links to the department’s website however provide information about ENS/RSMS visas:

 

 

- Information Booklet No. 5 Employer Sponsored Migration

 

 

- Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186)

 

 

- Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (subclass 187)

 

 

- Skillselect

 

 

Note: While ENS and RSMS visas have been located on the DIAC website within the SkillSelect group of visas this does not mean that clients need to use the SkillSelect system to lodge an ENS/RSMS application. SkillSelect would only need to be used where an employer wishes to nominate a person they have identified through the SkillSelect system.

 

 

How to lodge an application

 

 

From 1 July 2012 all applications must be made online. The e-lodgement portal can be accessed from the following link on the DIAC website: http://www.immi.gov.au/e_visa/ens-rsms.htm'>http://www.immi.gov.au/e_visa/ens-rsms.htm

 

 

The processing centres have developed “document checklists” that highlight key information and evidence required in your application. These checklists can be found under SkillSelect on the DIAC website, or you can use the following links:

 

 

- Checklist for visa applicants

- Checklist for sponsoring employer

 

 

We encourage you to lodge all required information and supporting documentation with your application. A “complete” application will make the processing quicker.

 

 

Having difficulties lodging your application on-line?

If you experience any difficulties with this process please ensure that you are familiar with the material at http://skillselect.govspace.gov.au/

 

 

You can also call the Service Centre on 131 881 who can also assist with pre-lodgment queries or any issues you may be having with lodging applications online.

 

 

HAVING ISSUES WITH ACKNOWLEDGEMENT EMAILS FOR YOUR SUBCLASS 186 OR 187 APPLICATION?

 

 

We have had a number of clients follow-up missing acknowledgement letters where the letter has been sent.

 

A common explanation has been the clients junk mail filter as commonly used in Hotmail or Google. These filters may prevent legitimate emails from reaching your inbox. To ensure that you are receiving emails from the department be sure to check the settings on your junk mail filter.

 

For further directions please see the following links:

AGENT ENQUIRIES

 

 

 

 

Policy questions from Registered Migration Agents

The Agents Gateway provides information for registered migration agents on visa applications, legislation, registration as well as useful links resources. An on-line form is provided for migration agents with complex policy or procedural questions. Registered Migration Agents should re-direct policy enquiries using this on-line form: http://www.immi.gov.au/gateways/agents/contact/feedback/'>http://www.immi.gov.au/gateways/agents/contact/feedback/

 

 

Please note that responses to queries sent to this mailbox will generally only be given on complex enquiries not already covered through legislation and policy documents.

 

 

 

 

 

 

ALL OTHER ENQUIRIES

 

 

If you have a general enquiry that is not about an application for ENS or RSMS you should consult the Department’s website http://www.immi.gov.au and/or ring the department’s general enquiry telephone number of 131 881. The processing centre is not able to respond further to your email.

i got this info from immigration websit if u all guys study this thing and try to rember immigration press release early July they said they have received 9000 RSMS files in last week of June and they already have 11000 RSMS file in there hand so there is expecting delay in RSMS application result. But according to these fig this year they have target only 16000 file to approval but they have more than 20000 RSMS files in end of June . So this means till end of june2013 they ll only give result to the file received in 2011-2012. Becoz they do not have budget for more applications. So my question is there in no approval for 187 in 2012-2013 and last 4000 files which is received last day of June . If I am wrong plz clear my drought. I reAlly appreciate.

thanks

DIAC have allocation for 16000 RSMS in year 2012-2013. The rest of more than 4000 applications (4000+ allocation to DRC submitted after June) submitted in last week of June 2012 will be forced into new allocation year and will be processed July/August 2013.

 

So NON DRC last week June applications will be decided after July/August 2013. For some applications wait will be more than 14 months. Also 187 DRC will be using same quota and further delay RSMS 119/857
