Newbie question (sorry!)
 

Hi everyone,

I have recently got an application in and have had the fee taken. I am going on Regional Sponsored Migration, Subclass 119 with a sponsoring relative in Oz.

It may be a stupid question, but how long do you think it will take?

Sorry if its a dull request, only the posts I have seen are frightening the hell out of me.

You've got something wrong here. Subclass 119 is the Regional
Sponsored Migration Scheme where a regional *employer* sponsors you.

If you're sponsored by a relative in a regional area it's subclass
139. Totally different visa.

You need to be more clear about precisely what you are applying for.

I'm using an agent and that is the subclass that they have quoted on a letter to me. Have they got it wrong as I am not being sponsored by an employer.

If you're not been sponsored by an employer it certainly is wrong.
Ask them - maybe it's a typographical error.

Thanks Jeremy, I will.

By the way, does the fact that my credit card has been debited in Adelaide mean that my application is being dealt with there or all payments handled that way?

Right,

Got it straightened out. Subclass 139 regional sponsored.

Apparently the application has gone to Adelaide with a lodging date of 2/9/02.

The wait begins......
