Guest PriyaReddy Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Thank you so much guys and gals. It feels really good seeing you all back here where it all began. Thank you for the warm wishes :hug:. Let the planning begin ! I still feel totally bowled over by that grant. It's just been 7 weeks since I received the VIC-grant and now I got a visa :nah: Being in cat4 before I did not expect anything to happen in the next 3-30 years but look how it turned out. Uli (still baffled) Congratulations Uli.. so happy for you, I wish you good luck for you and your family.. :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest la la Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I have been asked to take a survey on behalf of Victoria Migration Programme. One of the questions was: Q40. If you applied for state sponsorship in the last 12 months, how satisfied were you with the following: a) Information on how to apply :smile: b) The sponsorship application process :realmad: c) kept informed about the progress of your application :arghh: The faces represent my answers!!

Will see if they accept smileys :biggrin: Cheerio Captain Purple :wink: Hey El Capitano, I got the same and was going to wait 5 months before I replied lol. Quick question: All my docs are still set to 'required'??. I've had a CO for a number of weeks and have had a letter from him requesting to get medicals and PCCs. Meds are booked and PPCs should be back this week. Any idea why?? PM me if you want Yoyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our was a hard-working fellow and marked every change very diligent (team7 / CG). Anyway, you wouldn't be the first to get a grant with the online-monitor still showing everything as "requested". So there's no need to worry. Get the paperwork done and enjoy the show. :wink: Uli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And did anyone notice this link. https://www.liveinvictoria.vic.gov.au/working-and-employment/occupations/computing-professionals It says Victoria is currently offering sponsorship for computing professionals however their eligibility list seems to still carry the old information of ICT applications closed.
