Sam Australia

Hello,

Can we join you in the waiting list please?

Just got Vic SS on 1st July and we lodged a 176 online visa this weekend.
Hopefully the 1100 form is on its way already. We've accepted SS via email with Vic, but how do we know its arrived with the DIAC?

Now getting settled in for a wait. But happy we've got this far.

Sam

HI,guys,
I'm really confused,how long will it take to get the case allocated on earth? look at the following replies,they are both from DIAC and giving the different answers.
1, If you have obtained state or territory sponsorship your visa
application will be processed as a priority. However it can
take up to 2 months from the time sponsorship is approved until
it is registered on our system. Once registered on our system
your application will be allocated to a case officer for assessment
and once conducted they will make contact if they require additional
information or documentation.

2, Once the department has received valid nomination from a state or
territory, applications will be allocated to a case officer within 10
working days. You should allow a further 10 working days for a case
officer to contact you.

sgreen

Although it can take less than 2 months to be registered in the system (mine took about 2 weeks from when nsw dept of state and regional development said they sent it) it seems to be taking much much longer now to be allocated a C.O. If you look at the most reccent aspc and gsmb information emails they have removed any mention of the 10 days to commence processing, and in gsmb it still says they are processing may09 sponsorships!

sanhuamao

Both of the above replies are made in July.these are both latest information!How flurried it could be! what's more, i know a person who lodged the form1100 on 3 July has got the information from his CO asking him to submit additional documents.However, i lodged the form1100 a week earlier than he did,no news from co...

Yeah i thought that may be happening

and just from today (which last update was the 7th july)

1. State or Territory Nominated Applications - These applications have the highest priority for allocation once the department has received and approved a nomination from a State or Territory authority.

2. Applications with a nominated occupation on the Critical Skills List
(CSL) - these applications are allocated and processed after the State and Territory Nominated applications.

sadly no mention of 10 working days anymore!

It could be less than 10 days . All SS must be exhausted !!!

sgreen

hmmm you'd think that but i have now been waiting a month and i am on state sponsorship and DIAC even confirmed i haven't been assigned a case officer yet, and they did say that there are lots of state sponsored applications they are trying to get through. Soon i hope i will get a CO

This came in response of a PLE I launched earlier today. For those converted from 175 to 176 are on lower priority Sorry If the information is repeated


IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Please read on about changes in the way applications are nowbeing processed. There are specific updates covering the following topics:- The order in which applications are currently being processed
- State or Territory Sponsored Applicants
- Changing to a State/Territory Sponsored visa applicationduring processing
- Applicants with occupations on the Critical Skills List (CSL)
- Information for Accountants - Information for Computing Professionals
- Applications that are not on the CSL - Options if your occupation is not on the CSL- Visa subclasses exempt from the new changes (485, 487, 476and 887)- Allocation dates

Even more confused! remember the person i mentioned? he was a 175 applicant previously and changed to 176 on 3 July.

Ajay.Venk

Oh !!! What a sad news!!!
Waiting waiting and now more waiting

namecaesar

Are you sure? Where did this information come from?

pragot

Now whats the meaning of this. Are you saying those with state sponsorship have been divided into two groups with those who initially applied for 175 getting lower priority.
Second part- Are these changes recent, were they intoduced in June/July.
If possible please attach the reply you got to your PLE.

helloshivahere

Come on you are interpreting wrongly. This is not PLE reply. This just an automated raply saying that this page containing details of .........

DIAC dont want unnecessary PLE for which they have information on website

SS on high priority but if you want change from 175 to 176 sometime it could take upto 2 months to register into DIAC system

Reason is that States might take its own time to send for 1100 and DIAC has to receive it and it has to process statenomination to your 175 and moreover already 176 are growing it might extend allocation co
