I have been an international student at the university of Western Australia from 2020 to 2023 and due to the pandemic and several health conditions i had, I completed only 1 year's course load and recently applied for a 2 years student visa. Unfortunately, it was refused and I applied for a second student visa and it has been 20 days already. My course started this week and if the decison maker takes any more time, I might have to defer another semester resulting in me losing 2 years. Furthermore, I showed about 70,000 AUD in my finances indicating that I have sufficient funds to live about 2 years in Australia. Oh well, Australia's decision makers are stealing about 42 billion dollars from rejected applicants blatantly like that shows how much the country cares

@estellebright2579 7 месяцев назад

In 2022-2023, Australia was desperate to get more people to come. In 2023-2024, Australia is desperate to get more people to leave. What a stark contrast in the span of just 12 months. I have a message to DOHA: Can we leave this roller coaster for good?

VETASSESS - I AM AT WEEK 41 OF PROCESSING. At this rate I will have my 40th birthday before my EOI is accepted and lose rightful points. My only crime? Being offshore when the Covid border closures happened. And now I have spent near 5 years in limbo. Unacceptable.

@estellebright2579 7 месяцев назад

@@jawadalikhan2077 EOI number barely means anything since one applicant can have many EOIs under their name. For example, just for 189/190/491, they can have 9 EOI if they are offshore. For visa applications backlog, this year’s far lower quota means fewer people will contribute to the backlog, aka being slowed down. I’m not going to be surprised by next year’s number unless something drastic happens.

Hi Karl, have you noticed your cases for 190 lodged after march 31 2023? There seems to be no s56 or commencement emails which is usually received 2-3 months from grants. So far not more tha 5 have been granted from April 2023 lodgements. IS THERE A HARD LINE BETWEEN MARCH AND APRIL 2023 LODGEMENT ONWARDS? HAVE DHA RAN OUT OF PLACES/QUOTA?

@estellebright2579 7 месяцев назад

DOHA already had enough quota for this FY and if they want to clear the backlog they would have to slow down the invites for another FY. There were just too many invites issued in 2022-2023. And no, there’s no “hard line” between March and April 2023 lodgement, noting DOHA does not finalise visa strictly on date lodgement order. I would personally use commencement email as an indication of potential imminent visa application finalisation, but thats just me. Regardless, finger crossed DOHA still have some quota left and can grant some visas in March 2024.

@cocoy01 7 месяцев назад

@@estellebright2579 what i was trying to conclude was, so far until now there is no s56 or commencement email being given to April 2024 lodged 190 visa applications to date.

@estellebright2579 7 месяцев назад

@@cocoy01 we both don’t have the full picture of how the visa grant goes. Only DOHA knows. What I mean is prior to March 2024 we already knew they have so much backlog that even if they didn’t issue any new invites 2023-2024 FY it’d still take them 2 years of planning levels to clear them all. And with this in mind, while there is no HARD LINE per se, DOHA would unlikely grant too many more visas not we are heading towards March. Most have been used to deal with pre April 2023 lodgements.

Hi Karl, I submitted my EOI last year in September for skilled visa 190 on 85 points and still waiting for response. My 485 is expiring soon and am not eligible for extension. I understand that we cannot the follow up with immigration for the processing of EOI but is there any waiting time period we suppose to wait for? Your videos are very informative and helpful, thank you!

@estellebright2579 7 месяцев назад

190 for 85 points seems low to me to get an invite in 2023-2024 FY unless your occupation is in extremely high demand and your profile is good. States like VIC and TAS don't care as much about EOI points compared to NSW, QLD and WA. ACT technically doesn't care about EOI points but their matrix is even harder to get competitive points. Maybe you can give 491 invite a try.

@@IKARIS87 it IS a prioritization issue because there are only so many COs working on processing visas and there are lots of visas to go through. Take a look at 482 visas. They are being processed in a matter of days, weeks, sometimes 1-3 months, not a matter of 10+ months or even years. 189/190/491's prioritised occupations get their PR/Provisional visa grant in an average of 3 months as well, compared to everyone else's average of 10-12 months.

Rather they dont say it right away and are rejecting visas of these poor people. There is so much money and time these students spend, often from poorer countries and then the rejection, it is extremely selfish, brutal, and disgusting. Only if these decision-makers had ever gone through this ordeal themselves then they would have known how much damage they are inflicting. These students might get there visas rejected to other countries as well based on their Australian rejection. What a country, what a government, soo damn greedy. Feel so sad for those students.

Hi Karl, Does labor market testing required for 482 nomination? I heard WTO countries applicants are exempt. In that case, Nepal is also listed on WTO list and i am a Nepali citizen. Will i be exempt?

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

Non labout market testing is based upon FTA with other countries

Thanks for the update. Gov keep saying that they need global talents, but what they actually need are talents of immigration, the top-3 researchers in my Lab just moved back to Europe, cuz they found the immigration is too complex for them. I tried to convince them to hire an agent, but they still annoyed by those NATTI and Skill assessment. At the end, another coworker managed to get his PR, but he’s actually the worst in our team in terms of H-index, productivity, and teamwork, except bluffing. Those left are pretty good at what they’re doing, but it turns out that Government just need people that good at immigration and bluffing. it’s just frustrating to see true talents leave.

It’s sad to see those good people leave and less good people able to wiggle around immigration system survives. Dunno how the migration reform could change this, especially for researchers and PhD degree holders.

Hi karl, I am currently in Australia QLD as a student dependent visa. I’m planning to study soon and will apply for my student visa onshore. Would I have a chance to be approved?

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

That depends upon so many factors but yes onshore applications still have a reasonable chance

Is Australia accepting students from Bangladesh? As I have lodged my application for post-graduation in the University of wollongong as well as Adelaide university. But no response yet even after 1.5 months about the offer.

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

Just need to wait for a response but it takes time these days

I am from Ghana but grew up in South Africa. Being an African, would I have a chance to receive a study visa for a master in medical laboratory science?

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

For the top line courses at good institutions then yes there is always a good chance

Hi Karl, You are a legend, thanks for all the information. Any idea when the new Skills in Demand visa will actually be launched for applications? I'm 47, do you think there will be any concessions on the horizon, especially for regional areas? I have a job offer using a DAMA visa, would you say just stick with that or there might be hope on the Skills in Demand for a 47 year old? Once again thanks mate, you are doing a great job!

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the feedback. Stick to the DAMA for I dont think they are going to lower the 186 age requirements

I got the invitation from south Australia under 491 sub class and paid the Visa fees and filed my application in 2022. It’s been close to 2 years waiting for my grant letter even after making the visa payment. This will only weaken the trust in Australia migration system. Neither I can move forward for something else nor I lose hope lot of money and efforts have gone towards it. This is not fair on Australia migration system.

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

Hang in there at least you have a visa in the system that will be eventually granted. Live your life to the fullest while your waiting you will have plenty of time to come to Australia later

Hi Karl, I have lodged my EOI since last May 2023 for Motor Mechanic 185 and 190(NSW) at 85 and 90 points respectively. It's really frustrating. Do you think I have any chance in this year ?

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

Probably not this FY but later on yes. Best of luck

@muhammadsaqib1314 7 месяцев назад

Hi Karl Thanks for such informative videos. Why the department is not processing 2021 and 2022 491 visa application? Most of the applicants are out of standard global processing timeline.There are plenty of people who are waiting for their grants more than two years, on the other hand 2023 applicants related to priority and non priority occupations getting grants. Any idea why the department has been slowed down to older applications???

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

They have this crazy system of processing the newer applications first to make themselves look good I'm afraid. Dont worry they will get to you. Keep yourself busy until they do

@dhavalvelariya 7 месяцев назад

Hi Karl and team. I saw on some fb groups that people are getting 189 & 190 VISA grants on priority for non-priority applicants, if they have claimed 10 points for spouse and spouse is from priority sector. Have you come across any such cases?

@ailsaustralia 7 месяцев назад

189 and 190's are taking about 12 months, cannot comment on the other matter, sorry
