woody465 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hi, My husband and I applied for a 457 visa two weeks ago. I just wondered if anyone can advise if you status online gets updated as the visa progresses along or whether its only updated at the end when its approved? The agent advised us there was no point looking with the TRN number because it won't change until its all been approved but I had read conflicting things on here. At the moment it says: 03/08/2011 Application received - processing commenced. 03/08/2011 Application fee receieved. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody465 Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 Ha ha no I'm not you! I never expected it to come through this quickly, can finally hand my notice in! Where are you off to? So much to organise now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintpot Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Sorry - just noticed you have a husband. Hang on - you're not my wife, are you? :err: Also off to Sydney. I had a bit more bottle than you though - handed in my notice 2 weeks ago, couldn't bear it any longer. I managed to hold out long enough that the visa agent had confirmed the application was lodged and that they couldn't see anything that would cause a hold up Good luck with your move :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apc1 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Our online status states: 30 April 2012 application received 09 May 2012 application being processed further Primary applicant: 09 May 2012 further info requested (medicals and ceritifed copies of passports and birth certificates were requested, uploaded 10 May 2012) 10 May 2012 Health requirements finalised 10 Oct 2011 medicals received (we did our medicals in 2011 intended for a PR application but PR nomination was refused that is why we are gioing through the 457 route) dependents 30 April 2012 Health requirements outstanding I emailed HOC asking status of medical of my dependents and they replied all our health results has already been assessed and finalised. How come my online status indicates my dependents medicals are outstanding when it has already been finalised before we even lodge the 457 application? The CO was provided with the ID numbers from HOC to locate the results and obviously he was able to locate my result. Should I be worried that CO did not update the status of my dependents medicals?
