Armandra,

Extremely happy to hear about your VIC SS..

Welcome to blue county :)

 

From the day it all started, (mid June 2008), the happiest day for me was when i received the VIC SS.. I know how you feel..

 

Take off today and it's the time to party...

 

God Bless

Seban

Hi Uli,

 

Thank you for your kind message.

 

Do you know if NSW is accepting accountants at the moment?

 

Joey

 

Hi Joey and all other accountants.

 

We have received some great news this morning. We previously looked into NSW sponsorship but my OH hasn't got the taxation experience required by NSW. A few weeks ago WA opened their applications to accountants again. Last night we applied for SS and 3 hours later we were approved!

 

Please let me know if you want any more details about this.

Congrats Julie, that was so quick.. Good luck with your 176 application

 

Hope VIC guys are looking at the speed of WA SS Team, feel pity about the guys who are waiting since 5-6 months just to get the VIC SS.

Looks like a brown-out for me. SS was declined--lack of demand. Best wishes to everyone else.

 

HoutoMel,

 

Sorry to hear the news mate. Any other plans you got? May be 175??

Good luck with the future!! :hug:

Thanks. I'll try for the 175--if my skills assessment is positive from VETASSESS. I'm just curious about who is on the IP because I have an agent on the ground in Melbourne who's contacted many different potential employers who thought that my skill set met a demand. Oh well...

Well, no one exactly knows for sure who forms the so called IP, but my personal opinion (or rather guess) is it is comprised of a group of Recruitment Agents and may be a few HR Managers thrown in. But, I don't have any evidence for believing the same, of course.

 

The best possible option (other than 175) is trying to get an offer letter from an employer in Vic and then re-applying for SS, which would be granted without any questions asked. How does this sound?

 

And what's with your skills assessment? Why on earth is it taking so long?? The normal turn around time for VETASSESS is 4 weeks and as far as I recall, it's been way beyond that in your case.

 

And yeah, did you, by any chance, take time out to Australise your CV (please don't tell me you just went ahead and sent in your CV which happened to be in US style format)? :err:

 

 

armandra!
