Hi Jackie and Steve

We are also December applicants and are hoping to be in Melbourne February / March 2008. We have meds booked for the 18th, going to York who do E-Meds, then the waiting begins, hopefully they won't anything else from us and we will have the visa by the end of Jan

Good Luck with yours

Tracy & Jason

My employer firm is big gaint in IT industry. So, I would like to understand from you guys experience that whether it is possible to get 457 visa in 3-4 weeks time.

Thanks,

Thanks. It is their regular task to sponsor 457 visa.

Medical done and received by immigration office as per courier status I checked online.

Lets see what happens, basically I have resigned my current company and 31st is my last day.

PS: I am working in singapore now.

I think this is because most are still waiting for their nursing registrations when they apply for the visa. I've been registered since April so I guess this is just how long Brisbane must be taking at the moment. Looking at the timeline about 2 months seems to be the average

Default Re: who applying 457 thread

Well its ten weeks since we applied tomorrow! No movement at all for five of those very long weeks. My husband's company have never sponsored before so we reckon this is the hold up. I just wish they would ask for some further info or something just so we know its being dealt with. I'm going mad at work because I still haven't told my employer, we were hoping to know by Christmas so I could hand in my notice.

Ah well, they will have to let us know eventually!

Hi all. Please can you advise. I agreed a contract with my future amployer a couple of weeks ago and had a e mail saying they would start the ball rolling for the visas. I have never done anything like this before so could do with all the help i can get. Basically, i havent done anything from my end. But are there things i am supposed to be doing / forms to fill out etc. We are pretty ignorant of all of this - it was only by reading here that i discovered we will need medicals. Time isnt a issue, as we cant go till end of May at the earliest.

Hi

Sorry I can't really help with your questions as our sponsor is using an agent who is dealing with our application, I just wanted to say Congratulations on the job and welcome to the thread. I am sure one of the others who is dealing with there bit can assist.
