Cheers Hi @kashyap, Good luck, mate! Just be patient. I was requested for s56 last June 21 and the status moved to further assessment when I submitted the docs on 28 June 2019. So, the waiting period in my case was around 59-60 days from s56. Best of luck, mate! :)) Edited August 20, 2019 by TBO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobie46 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 When people receive their golden emails do they get them from Immi themselves or do they get emails from the agent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Jobie, It depends if you have used a Migration Agent (MA) then they will receive the notification of the visa grant, if not then you will receive yourself. It will also update in your immi account under messages - so if you check that you will also be aware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In short, if you don't terminate you employment on good grounds and they go to immigration, there is a chance they could have a case against you and reject your PR. - This is a sensitive topic and should be handled with care. It's not worth having a case opened against you for (especially as it's only 2 years additional). When in doubt, contact and ask your MA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your employer reports this to immigration your PR is at risk as you have provided fraudulent information as you have not intended to complete the 2 year employment post PR grant.

Hope this helps. - https://www.etax.com.au/medicare-levy-versus-medicare-levy-surcharge/ Hi @Hex This article says whoever , working full time are required to pay a medical levy. But my medical levy was not deducted on previous years on 457 visa. Do you reckon it is because i applied for 186 trt now? And another quick question. If i have to pay medicare levy anyway can i opt out from my private health insurance and apply for a medicare card instead ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Saugat Correct, it is because you have applied for your 186 - which means you are eligible for Medicare. However, as your 457 visa probably has the condition to maintain private health insurance it is probably best you keep your private health insurance until you have your PR grant.

You are not qualified as someone who uses Medicare based off on if you have a card or not. It's based off PR application / approval. Regardless, if you have applied for PR or have PR, you will have to pay the levy (unless you earn under the bracket in the link provided). Opting out of private medical is a personal decision and up to you - there are consequences to this, which are also covered in the link provided. - I feel that link had pretty much all the information you needed. Outside of that, I wouldn't be able to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpenter19 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hi all, newbie here. This thread is such comfort in such a stressful period in all of our lives. We applied for PR in mid June 2019, no news yet. Interesting to see the newer applications moving through quickly (from what we see on the thread and the sheet). Have asked for access to the spreadsheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your employer reports this to immigration your PR is at risk as you have provided fraudulent information as you have not intended to complete the 2 year employment post PR grant. Resignation is not fraudulent. This is bad information. You should have the intention to be in a 2 yr contract before applying and during the processing. That's it. The conditions of a 186 PR says " Nil". You are not an Indentured servant to do whatever your employer wants out of you! You can resign properly. Its up to your contract to determine how the resignation can be effected. 1 months notice or whatever. All contracts can be terminated legally. Illegal termination of contract(absconding in bad faith) is ofcourse grounds for fraud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illegal termination of contract(absconding in bad faith) is ofcourse grounds for fraud I did not say resignation is fraudulent. 186 is granted on the basis that you intend to stay with your employer for the 2 years. if as soon as he receives the PR and resigns to change employer than if his Nominating employer reports to Immi then he is at risk that the visa may be cancelled - as clear did not intend to work for the 2 years. Also on Immi website it clearly states that once you have the 186 VISA: We expect that you will work for your nominating employer for at least 2 years. If you don't, we might cancel your visa.

Could you please point to the immi website link which provides this statement?

Well I was clearly staying that if your nominating employer reports you to Immi then could lead to issues, especially if the PR has been recently granted. SOURCE: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/employer-nomination-scheme-186/temporary-residence-transition-stream#When In this section; What you must do on this visa (your obligations) You and your family members must obey all Australian laws. We expect that you will work for your nominating employer for at least 2 years. If you don't, we might cancel your visa. You must begin your employment within 6 months of: entering Australia if we granted you the visa outside Australia the visa grant date if we granted you the visa in Australia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your preference is accepting what the MA says then please leave it there, there is no point asking this forum further, especially if it's full of "silly posts". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to read my post again - the silly post was referring to someone making their intentions of leaving their employer during the visa application process .that would be fraudulent and silly (shooting one's own foot) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
