Hope this is of some use: we have fast-racked our skills assessment via agents on 29/10/04, received acknowledgment from TRA 05/11/04. Agents say expect a result on or around 03/02/05. Nail biting stuff eh?

Good luck with all yours

Jees Oh...

Have they opened a really good pub next door to the TRA office, or something??
What's taking so long these days?

When I did mine, I got it back in less than 3 weeks!

Check out this site for timescales.

Incidentally we are also waiting for TRA response for Electrician - acknowledged by TRA 2/11/04, hopefully the wait will soon be over.

My partner is an electrician so we plan to try and get over on the skilled visa. We sent our first application away to TRA and we expect to hear back within next 2 weeks. We were meant to hear back in 60 days and I swear it feels like a year has passed already. In general does anyone know approx how long they take to get back?

Great site, some of the posts on the forum have been top notch, cheers.

Hiya - watch out for www.austimeline.com as it is ADDICTIVE! You begin to start looking at the timelines of everybody else and thinking why is their;s faster than mine.. oh god somethings going on, etc, etc, etc, & it can really make you paranoid! LOL

I found this site about 7 months ago, & ended up a nervous wreck!

Hopefully you will here soon as well, its not just the wait but also the worry that they might say no as well!!!! I agree with Scossie i think they might have opened a good pub next door and there out drinkin instead of checkin our forms lol.
