Guest Jess1976 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 I was wondering if it is possible to change your choice of state sponsorship after you have submitted your visa application at all? We want to go to Vic but don't think we will hear back from them in time so are considering applying to WA. If we get WA SS and apply for visa, what would happen if we got a positive reply from Vic? Would we be able to change to there? We need to have our visa in by the end of June as we won't have enough points when the July changes happen. Thanks in advance for any help, Jess
Guest tarchik Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 What visa subclass is it that you wish to apply for?
Guest Jess1976 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 What visa subclass is it that you wish to apply for? Sorry, it's the 176 we're applying for. Jess
Guest tarchik Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 I am using an agent so I do not have much info but i get your point.
Guest tarchik Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Am not sure about that. Hopefully someone will come along and give you a good answer.
Guest Jess1976 Posted May 14, 2011 Posted May 14, 2011 Thanks Tarchik, hopefully someone will have some experience of it. Jess

Thanks in advance for any help, Jess Hi, You need to have your state nomination On hand before you apply for 176. This applies for all applications lodged after 1.7.2010. So I don't think so you can change the sponsoring state. Get this confirmed by a registered agent. Good luck Alex

Guest redprimrose Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Hi, I change the state sponsorship from QLD to VIC. Since My app is paper-based, the situation might be different from yours. I called up DIAC twice to confirm that I could change SS by sending form 1023 and the approval letter from VIC. You'd better contact DIAC, and ask the operator to transfer the line to post lodgment office cuz sometimes the answers given by operators are not professional. Btw, if form 1100 have been sent by WA, I don't think there will be a chance to change SS. Regards
