Re: Anyone got RSMS Visa
I need help asap. Did anyone who applied for RSMS attached a copy of the nomination approval letter with the application? Is it really required? The reason being I was told my sponsor recieved a permission requiest ID but the formal approval form will not arrive until a few weeks later.
The approval letter is not just a print out of an email is it?
Can Anyone give me a reply asap? thanks.

I spoke to australia house and they said to send the passports and it would be done within the week.
However I need my passport every day for work so they also said you could turn up at the public counter between 9 and 11am.
I am planning on doing this tomorrow so I will let you know if any problems.

ponyrama-no problems at all at getting the visas validated at australia house.
Including queuing I was in and out in 45 minutes with visas validated in three passports.
Cheers!

Re: Anyone got RSMS Visa
Immigration still haven't decided the casual / permanent saga
...... sometime next week we hope now.
In the mean time employer waiting (and hopefully not going cold on us) and I have even less hair left. And our exisiting visa expires in 9 weeks !!!!!
And we've realised that we can't get bridging visas for our plan b or c so this has to get sorted soon or else we are booking removals in reverse and being sent home!!!
- can we get eta's onshore and have a bloody good holiday before having to leave!!!!!? (hopefully joking on that point!)

Re: Anyone got RSMS Visa
yep I think they can - that's another thing we are worried about - them getting fed up of the whole thing and saying sort your own visa - which we can't as we don't have enough points to do it without them!
Guess it depends how much they want you, their understanding and their ability/desire to wait for you!

Morning everyone
I posted our passports to the Australian embassy in London on Tuesday evening recorded delivery and included a special delivery pre-paid envelope as requested. We had the passports back on the Saturday morning.
It does state 5 working days on the e-mail that you get instructing you to do this.
Fingers crossed you hear something soon.
