blossom Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Welcome to poms in oz. I would do as you have planned and send the receipt. They can then look it up electronically as soon as it comes in. I would imagine, as long as they know you have done it, you should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pai Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Hi I am new to this forum... Just wanted to know what is the procedure once we receive pre grant letter from immi ?? Is it necessary to get the PR stamped from the corresponding country aus embassy (which ever country we fly) or just wait for the grant letter and we can use the same letter as proof to enter australia. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blossom Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 It at least used to be that you had to physically turn up at the embassy where you fly to. Not sure if it is still the same since the changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonicBlue82 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Normally, 4 weeks payslip,police clearance are absolutely necessary document once you get co What exactly is it they are looking for with regards to the pay slip? Just to verify that onshore applicants are in fact working for their nominating employers? I've been working for my nominating employer for just over a year, but still technically casual (with full time hours). My pay slips don't detail that I'm a casual staff member, but it shows the number of hours I've done in a fortnight. Will this be OK? Obviously once my visa is granted my employer will comply with the requirements and start paying me by salary, but I just hope that my pay slips won't be any issue when a case officer requests them...?

Kayes49 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 G'"day Blossom Thanks for reply But i am worried as my friends said me that if contact DIAC about your application, they might get your CO but then they will ask more paper work. thats true what you reckon Blossom Cheers Yes, 9 months is over the time lines quoted, so can't hurt.

This is what I dont understand, does it really matter if the applicant is working with the business before the grant of visa because the commitment is after the grant of visa....

kevander Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Hi guys. First time poster, long time watcher. Engineer in WA, 187 visa DRC lodged on 27/2/13 (Still in for a long wait). I know I’m not the only one who scans the forums on a daily basis in an attempt to find some positive news on processing times. Something that I think would be helpful is if there are any migration agents that read these pages, if they could post (anonymously if preferred) how long, in their experience, it has taken till CO allocation/visa grant etc. for their clients.

Way, way, way back on this thread someone was refused as they were not being paid at the level the employer had told immigration the job was at. Their excuse was that they were going to be doing the higher level job once the visa came through, but I'm guessing immigration were asking themselves why they were not already doing that role if it was a genuine role. If you are on casual you should be fine as that should be about 25% more than the contract rate they will have told immigration you will be on. They are only worried if you are being paid less. I was also on casual rates before my visa was granted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blossom Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 G'"day BlossomThanks for reply But i am worried as my friends said me that if contact DIAC about your application, they might get your CO but then they will ask more paper work. thats true what you reckon Blossom Cheers no, they will only ask for more paperwork if it is needed. In that case they will ask for it whenever they get to your file. My agent chased up mine (while asking where to send new police checks) and my visa was granted an hour and a half from the phone call.

I was also on casual rates before my visa was granted. Cheers Blossom79. Interesting... Well, in my situation, I'm not in my managerial role yet as it is pending on the grant of my visa. So despite the fact that I am currently a casual staff member, my wage is slightly less (we're talking maybe $600 less) than the salary package will offer, if I were to take my current weekly gross earnings and times that by 52. I just thought of having another look at my Job Offer Letter, which goes along with my application and I recall my MA being very specific with the wording of the first paragraph. It goes on to offer me a permanent employment for not less than 2 years as (position) with (company) commencing from the date of the visa grant. And then later in the letter it details the salary package, etc... So I think this should be fine as it is perfectly clear that from the date of the visa grant that is what I will be paid. And as my current earnings are just a few hundred dollars off what I will be earning on the salary package I think it's nothing to worry about.

If your payslips don't mention casual, and it is only $600 a year hopefully you won't have any problems. I was a little panicky about wage slips, but they didn't actually ask for mine (not sure if my employer sent them in with the application though). Might be worth getting your boss to practice his speech on who is doing the job at the moment, and why you are not though incase you get a work place visit or a phone call.

Welcome to poms in oz! Unfortunately there isn't a solid answer to this. Some people are straight away, some people it can be months. It seems to be a lucky dip which is not fun for everyone waiting.
