Guest FAMILYSTONE Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Just to let everyone know, I am a pre diploma RGN with 20 years experience. I applied for a 121 visa on 13/12/2010 and today it was refused as I did not meet the qualification criteria. so to all 'old school' RGN's who have applied be prepared for some bad news. If there is any RGN's who did get their visa let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ITengineer Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hi all, I am new to this forum. I just applied for 856 through a RMA in Perth. Since the nominating company is in Sydney, my application is lodged at paramatta. I am coming over from 457 and has been with same employer for last three years. I have lodged an front loaded application with DRC. How long is it normally taking paramatta to grant visa these days? Thanks! My timeline is: Lodged: 08 Feb 2011 Money taken out from a/c: 11 Feb 2011 I will add that to the spreadsheet ASAP. Hi..It can be anything between 2-3 weeks to 5 months.I submitted mine on 3rd sept and a colleague of mine did after a month.He got his in 3 weeks and its been 5 months waiting for me now..

Guest Cass Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Hi to all As I mentioned a while ago, I have not really spent any time thinking about my visa at all but thought I would check in today to see how everyone else is going. Congrats to everyone who have received their visas. Richiko, you have the patience of a saint! I hope that you will receive an answer soon so that you can stop living in limbo. Have a great week and let's hope for a massive amount of golden tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lisa maughan Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hi We got it at long last (ens 856) submitted Aug 24th 2010. All front loaded, sent to Paramatta then it was transferred to WA due to backlogs. Had no idea it was being looked at til Friday 4th Feb when the CO asked for some more info from us and from our nominating company - we returned the info on Monday and got the decision on Tuesday 8th Feb. Could have blown me down with a feather!! Huge weight off :laugh: NOt sure who updates the spreadsheet. Good luck to everyone else waiting.

Guest guest17520 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I am starting to lose my patience with this whole application. It's coming up to 11 months since I applied for my part and over a year since my employer applied, how can they justify making me wait this long? Does anyone know if any of the case officers at Parra work full time? I have had two CO's, the first one worked Monday to Thursday and my current CO works Monday - Wednesday. It's a joke. :mad: :arghh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sharry Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hi everyone, just thought I would update, something is moving at the Melbourne office!!!! My employer nomination part was approved on the 14/02/2011. They emailed my employer straight away and they sent the nomination approval letter onto me so I can submit a copy when I do my bit. I dont know how to add these details to the spreadsheet. Employer nomination part submitted 26/10/2010, approved 14/02/2011. We are just sorting our paperwork out and I am on a diet before I go for my medical, then we will submit our bit. I know it will be another wait but at least the first step is sorted. Though it might help others to know something is moving at the Melbourne office if any one has applied via there. Good luck to everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ashish Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hi all, I have created a new spreadsheet with all the visa application lodged this year.

Guest mikeskinner1272 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 have tried that.....for some reason my case officer....who was ****ing more than usless, told me that my employer didn't comply with the 457 visa....Yet they had been given the all clear to sponsor on the RSMS.....When I questioned my CO....I asked why they had been refused she couldn't tell me, I said can't or won't tell me....All she said was I could appeal at a cost of $1400.....My sponsor hit the roof. We were told by the DIAC to go down the route of the 457 when my sponsor had to move 60 miles for a contract they had just landed, but it was on the Gold Coast, which is a no no for RSMS.....I have lost 12 weeks on the 457 and been waiting for another 16 weeks with the ENS, my sponsor applied in October 2010......Doing my head in....Plus I now have to do my medicals again.......DEEP JOY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cherylant78 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Just to let everyone know, I am a pre diploma RGN with 20 years experience. I applied for a 121 visa on 13/12/2010 and today it was refused as I did not meet the qualification criteria.so to all 'old school' RGN's who have applied be prepared for some bad news. If there is any RGN's who did get their visa let me know Hi, Im assuming if you applied for the 121 you had a job lined up, did you also have a positive skills assessment from the ANMC if not this may be why it was refused, they sometimes insist on it, are you currently registered with AHPRA too? We applied for ours in May it was granted in October but we did diploma course, as far as im aware the course you have completed is irrelevant to immigration but registration and skills assesment are what is important to them, feel free to pm me if you think i might be able to help, hopefully you will get it sorted. cheryl.
