Hi Jeremy

I received my ACS results in March with my experience to be relevant from Aug 2009 to date...statutory declarations were submitted for all experiences...in my current company I joined recently (October 2017) and don't want verification to be done as they will not vouch for me and I don't want them to get a hint of PR...so can I mark my most recent experience as not relevant in visa filing and proceed...I will still have 8 years of experience for 15 points based on the previous job that can be counted until August 2017............(I received positive assessment for current job)...

Also, I had filed my EOI under 189, ICT BA last week marking current job as relevant and received an invite with a score of 80.
a) Should I withdraw my current EOI and file a new one marking current job as non - relevant
b) Should I file a new ACS and show the current job as non-relevant
c)Any other options?

Dear Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

I have been following your posts for a while now. Just wanted to know something about the impact of a declined New Zealand residence works visa on my future Australian visa applications.

I have been working as a cafe manager in New Zealand, and I received a positive skill assessment from Vetassess. Moreover, I scored a band score of 7.0 on IELTS that makes my point a total of 65 if I get a nomination from any states. Hopefully, I will approval from SA or NT.

My employer in New Zealand breached some employment laws so my residence application was declined. I did not do anything wrong. I have all the documents say about employer's wrongdoing.

Will this declined New Zealand application affect my future applications in Australia (DIBP)? Also, I will contact you when I apply for the State nomination and main application. What would be your fees?

Thanks in advance and I hope to hear from you soon.

Kind regards,
Ushi

Dear Jeremy

I’ve got few queries and please need your advise on the below.
I did Employment Assessment from EA for the work experience from Sep 2006 to Oct 2010 and Feb 2011 to May 2016 (9 years 4 months) and filled these details exactly in the EOI.

I worked in a company from Oct 2005 to Aug 2006 (10 months) on a temporary assignment and Sep 2006 to May 2008 (1 yr 8 months months) as a permanent employee with company sponsored visa. The company didn’t mention the temporary experience (10 months) on the reference letter.
1. Can I add this 10 months of experience as not related to the nominated position on the visa application to show complete 10 yrs of experience?
2. Is it ok to add with the same employer one experience as related and other as not related or will it be confusing to the case officer?
3. I’ve read on the forums providing new employment details on visa application which was not mentioned on the EOI will be subjected to rejection.

Thank you !

Hello Jeremy!
Can you please help me on how to activate visa sub class 189 for my secondary applicant after the mine (primary applicant) has been granted.
We have one immiaccount and they also have submitted and met all requirements except that they have not paid the visa application fee. I want to pay the fee now but don't know how to initiate the process.

Best regards

What visa are you applying for? Your application would typically be linked to the nomination, so if the nomination is withdrawn you also need to withdraw your application so your bridging visa would...

If they say you must have a job offer from an employer, you'll need to include a copy of this job offer in your application. Showing your job is available on Seek won't be sufficient.

There is no bridging visa and you must be outside Australia for the grant of your 309 visa. You can get a bridging visa only if you lodge a valid application for another visa in Australia. You...

It sounds like No, they did not consider your new IELTS results, as you had to provide them with the results of the test dated at or BEFORE you lodged your visa (unless I'm mistaken). The...

I saw a professional yesterday and I asked every single question I could think of. They told me I couldn't do a family visa through my mom since I'm not the last remaining relative. I couldn't do a...

So you've applied offshore, that means it's a 309/100 application (309 being TR and 100 being PR). The onshore option is 820/801 (TR/PR) and no, you can't convert your 309/100 to that. You can...

1. Check the content of your qualification against the duties disclosed by ANZSCO for likely occupations.

If you are unable to find such basic information, are you sure you should be doing this yourself? Furthermore, your question is so general, that it is impossible to answer. What skills assessment...

If you have been refused a visa onshore and you still hold a substantive visa, you might be able to apply sucessfully for a further visa and possibly in due course for a further 485. May I suggest...

Probably very few options given what you've described, but perhaps they should have a consultation with a registered migration agent to review their situation and see what may be possible.

Depending on how long your CO is on leave for, they'll either look at your email when they return or someone else will be handling your application. More often now there are teams handling...

There is no age limit. If you meet the relationship and other requirements for a sc.820 visa and you’re in a position to apply onshore, then that is most likely your best option.

My remarks were based on the many refusals I have seen of especially sc. 485 visas. The Department will not assist you and their web-site cannot be relied on. It should not be that way, but...

Ken, the question of right or wrong does not enter into the equation. You will have to prove that the Department has made a mistake when arriving at a decision regarding you application. From what...

Unfortunately for you, the Department has no responsibility to do ANYTHING! The onus falls 100% on the applicant. If you take the time to read through the posts you will see countless cases where...
