rebejes3 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 8 April 2011 - Important update about your sponsorship applicationSponsorship Applications under current Points Test - submit by 5pm on 2 May 2011. to allow enough time for visa applications to be lodged with DIAC under the current Points Test, all completed applications should be received by Immigration SA before 5pm (Adelaide local time) on Monday 2 May 2011. this means that your online sponsorship application and supporting documents should be submitted to and registered by Immigration SA before 5pm (Adelaide local time) on Monday 2 May 2011. please be aware that the Online Application System will be closed at 5pm (Adelaide local time) on Monday 2 May 2011. If your application is received after that time, it will not be processed. Immigration SA will endeavour to finalise applications received by the May deadline before 1 July 2011, to enable you to lodge your visa application with DIAC under the current Points Test. Please check the Online Client Tracking System for results, which will be available as soon as a decision is made on your application. all applications will be processed in order of receipt of complete documentation. Please be aware that due to the anticipated volume of applications, Immigration SA cannot guarantee that all applications will be finalised before 1 July 2011. you should also be aware that there are Planning Levels for all occupations on the current State Sponsored Migration List. Once the Planning Level for a specific occupation has been reached, that occupation will no longer be available for sponsorship. This means that applications already submitted for that occupation will not proceed to be considered under the current Points Test, you need to lodge your visa application with DIAC before 1 July 2011; otherwise your visa application will be assessed against the new Points Test and criteria. once details of South Australia’s Sponsorship criteria for 2011-2012 have been finalised, the Online Application System will be reopened. please regularly check the Immigration SA website for updated information.

Oz 4 sure Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Hi OZ,How is situation in Jordan now. Is it safe on the streets? You see all these images on TV about what is happening across Arab world atm, demonstrations, protests etc. Kind regards, MOTO Thanks mate for your concern :smile: Actually, I don't live in Jordan, and in fact I'm originally not Arabian. I just hold the Jordanian citizenship and currently reside outside of Jordan. So, really I don't know what's going on there. However, people around me chatting and saying everything is normal. Clashes and actions occur in certain locations and everything running normally. Thanks again mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mongobear Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Hey VICings, sorry that I did not have much time during the last week. I'm not sure whether I responded to each and every post but just to be on the safe side: I'm sorry for our Brownies especially for those who were actively posting in this thread during the last couple of months. I really hope all of you have some alternative plans to go for. I know most of you have so I don't feel that bad. So chins up, bite the bullet and get it done. Don't waste time and get the ball running. Even if the option is a 2nd application and will cost you another 2575AU$. Better shelling out another lump of gold than to be left out in the cold. It's worth it, so do it. Our Blueys. Well, most of them won't even remember that thread any longer since they're already in the cat2 thread (which is by the way by far not that personal) or are busy preparing an last-minute application. Again, well done fellaz and I really hope all of you will receive their 886/176 in no time. DIAC's is moving very fast so I don't think it will take very long. Just remember that one guy (edit: lady (thanks armandra :wink:) from our VIC-thread (auzsci?)... 3 months for getting the sponsorship, lodging the visa-application and receiving the PR. Wow! That's how it should work for all applications. And finally those who are still waiting for an outcome. I hope Big Daddy Bob is right and all applicants will have an outcome until April 15th. I think also VIC want's to clear the backlog and get some applications into DIAC before the new points test hits so I think it's likely that they're finally moving fast. My fingers are crossed for you guys. Enjoy the weekend VICings and of course also those who now (have to) join other crews! Cheerio Uli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Armandra for pointing out that I'm indeed all woman! :biglaugh: It was very fast. VIC SS took longer (2 months) than getting the PR (1 month!)...

Guest DRose Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Hello allI have been following this thread since day 1, I check it like 20 times a day... and I wanted to add my info long time ago, but was too depressed, mostly with DIAC when they cancelled the CSL and MODL lists. .............................................. yesterday in the morning an email from VIC was sitting at the top of my inbox, I swear you could hear my old ticker racing up! my eyes gazed through the very long email, and it was there "successful" I yelled for my wife, I hugged my two little nippers, and let us say that I got "emotional" right away, I logged in to the DIAC's website, to find out my old 175 is still there! I went through it, updated the information, and pulled out my credit card, it took me 16 hours! I did not want to waist a single day, I have learnt my lesson very well. I will spend the next few days attaching documents to my 176 application. I want to congratulate everyone who got an SS and to condoles everyone who didn't, and wish you best luck with your alternative plans. I will move to the Priority 2 thread, but I will also keep reading here every day as long as the thread remains alive. I feel I know you all, like a big family, thank you all, every single one of you. yours, Abdul Yahoo!!! Yes!!! It was hard and long waiting. Definitely you deserve it! :hug: Your deserve to be an Aussi PR soon. :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lankan1 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Guys and girls! I hope most of you have previous experience with 175 online application. Since I'm going to prepare one I will need your valuable help! We have submitted ACS apps on Feb 24th and still its in the "processing" state, I'm just wondering whether it is possible to SUBMIT an online 175 application without attaching ACS outcome letter. I'm really nervous that DIAC will suspend by the time I get the ACS and with new point test it'll be bit harder for me. I have everything in hand except for ACS letter. Any idea?

Hi Lankan, Unfortunately, one cannot lodge 175 visa application without having obtained skills assessment first. Moreover, you will be asked to provide a ref. number of your skills assessment. There is a separate text field for it. Hope it helps, MOTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it helps, MOTO True however, if you are really tight on time and have to submit a 175 before you receive your ACS PASA letter, you can lodge your 175 and supply the reference number you received online from ACS, keep in mind you are gambling away 2600$ AUD... I wont do so unless I am 99% sure I will get a positive PASA, AND I am really desperate on submitting my 175 now. otherwise just wait and play it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tycsee Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Quick question for the ones getting the results from Vic - are these the application dates (4th Nov or 5th Nov) or the dates when Vic sent you the acknowledgement? I understand usually there is a gap of about a week to two weeks... between application and acknowledgement email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
