Bigger agents tend to be more thorough, based on experience, but that their name is not supposed to have any impact on the processing of the application. In terms of the sponsoring employer, bigger ones will tend to get their way (not necessarily quicker) only because from a CO perspective, they have less to investigate about in terms of the legitimacy of the company. I will agree on that because that is the exact route we went. I know a lot of Accountants that is still on pending and applied earlier than us that works in smaller companies and/or done the application themselves. However I think the size of the company does carry more weight than doing the PR yourself or using a smaller migration agency. That is why the nomination part of the process (can the company afford you, stable company, size, turnover, etc.) is the most difficult part and your actual PR part the "easy" part. Always here to assist and will not run away, this forum helped me a lot so it's my turn to give back some knowledge and experiences we had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akiradiaz Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Hi everybody Been a silent reader for a long while now. My details below. Want to thank you all for the support and encoragement you are keen to share which really help me through this emotionally draining process. One question somebody may be able to help me with; been offered long term relocation from Melbourne to Sydney within my company (same position, same tasks, different project)...is this something to impact my application? Am I supposed not to leave the state for professional reasons?...I don't get a clear answer from my company's lawyer... Thanks... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my case Nomination was approved within three months but i am waiting almost an year still my visa is not granted. Yes Nomination is main part but not very sure how the immigration is processing the applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been sponsored by PwC and initially thought because of the size, reputation etc, nomination would be fairly straightforward, but following this forum over the past year or so, now I'm not so sure of anything anymore!!!

If a corporate sponsor you it the process is a lot less intense as a small company because of the red tape of smaller company, this does not mean your application will be done sooner it just mean that you have less "pressure" for the nomination to go through successfully.

RMF Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Hi all, Mostly silent reader here - just to let you know of some good news and pass on some advice. We have finally got our golden email but for those who have the question about whether to wait until after nomination to submit a visa application - don't! We were advised by my employer to do so and as we were not using an agent we just followed their advice. Nomination was made in August 2017, nomination was approved in Dec 2017. Visa application (for 4 people with medicals and police checks completed) was submitted 16 Feb 2018. Visa approval came through on the 5 Feb 2019. That delay has cost us many opportunities which we can hopefully get on top of this year - so while it is a relief to be finalised, it is also bittersweet. I thought I would share this cautionary tale!! That said, I have still opened the champagne Good luck to everyone RMF 1 1 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sachin1983 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Hi Everyone, I think we can have both the option, .both the approval options are not wrong. The reason to get 1 week of nomination and PR approval may be that the person has already completed 2 years on 457. Those who have not completed 2 years hence probably it takes time for nomination and PR approval. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the quickest time is 1 day. what is the maximum they take to grant visa? please share your views. It would be greatly appreciated if you stopped spamming the forum with all your messages thanks make very little sense. You have also been asked repeatedly to update your signature. You aren’t getting your PR anytime soon so stop asking stupid questions it’s irritating 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gigio Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Hi! I've just been told by the MA that our nomination has been approved on the 12th of January, with no additional documents being requested. IMMI status is still on "Received" though. This is way more painful than I expected to be... Thanks to you all for the precious support. Cheers 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame it took your MA almost a month to let you know! Imagine they'd requested additional documents... ____________________ What is the process for importing your Application?

Kashif.Iqbal Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Guys, I'm really sorry for being annoying for everyone. I'll update my signatures shortly, and I would like to update all of you, that i applied for my nomination first time through DE in 29th June 2017 which rejected in may 2018 without giving any solid reason, than my MA applied again for my nomination and visa together in june 2018 through TRT. So the first nomination was rejected and the second got approval. This is my story. And actually i spoke with my MA this morning and he told me that, either it could take a day to grant visa after nomination approval or i could take 6 months, no body can tell you about the exact dates. I'm sorry again for being annoying, I'm typing this message in my phone, I'll update my signature when I'll login in my computer. Thanks everyone for your words and your patience. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess, once you have an immi account, you just have to input your application reference no? cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
