Guest RobynT84 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Hey Robyn, there's no better place to post your details :wink:. Thanks for the update and good luck for your application. Did VIC ask for your skills assessment already or did you just attach it to complete your application? Cheerio Uli Hi Uli, Well, we submitted our SS application to Vic back in March but they've not requested any further information as yet. Now our agent is talking about applying to WA or NT as they are the states currently sponsoring our profession (with no mention of the application already mnade to Vic!). I'm just waiting to hear back from them as to whether our pending Vic application is still in progress following the recent 1st July changes. A little confused right now to be honest:confused: Still happy though! Robyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest soumya Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Hi Robyn, Not sure what relationship the 1st July changes have to do with VIC's SMP processing. In my opinion, their is no relation. Though if you have your profession on the state's list, then you can wait - I read on this forum March applicants having got their SS in early July. So its still taking 4 months nowadays also. **Purely my thoughts** Cheers, Soumya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were concerned about the status of our Vic application as there was no mention of it when our skills assessment was confirmed approved by our agency company. However, our actual agent is currently away so we haven't been able to discuss the details fully. I feel much better no that I know our SS app with vic is still pending!

Hey Robyn, unfortunately he's right. VIC doesn't like being chased and if done they don't care at all. So it's really a waiting game .... hang in there :wink: Cheers Uli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
