Folks,

I'm sure the answer is on one of the threads somewhere but could any one confirm the typical timeframe to process an application?

I have everything I need (I think) and could realistically post it tomorrow ....

Secondly, is it a good idea to lodge the visa application with Teach Australia assessment outstanding or am i missing the point here - applied once a long time ago and am having to re-educate myself.

Hi,

My skills assessment was sent on 23rd May and I received my certificate on the 8th August - they said 8 weeks was the average and weren't far off!

Hope this helps.

You can't apply for your visa until your skills assessment is completed.

I thought u had already been awarded state sponsorship by Victoria, from reading your other posts?

Jen,

Just waiting for the outcome of the state sponsored application but Vic don't require a Teach Australia assessment for their sponsorhsip - what they want is acceptance by VIT.

Hence the Teach Australia is for the 176 ....

So one visa - two skill assessments - agghhh!

Did you say u were Primary or Secondary?

Okies...roll on the summer hols eh! Less than 8 weeks for us! WOO HOO

Jen,

Glad to help.

Teaching Australia application good to go tomorrow and then hold on.

Once state sponsorship in then 176 to follow.

then wait a while again ....
