Thanks for the motivation Pratik
How do I go about migrating to Australia for work
Thank you, Karl, for all of your updates. While I was waiting for my visa, your updates helped me stay motivated throughout these 12 months. Finally, we have received our 190 Victoria visa regards Anil
Wonderful! Well done!
How long for your processing time of Vic 190 visa?
Thank you, Karl! We're grateful for your weekly immigration news updates, which have been incredibly insightful. However, I've noticed that no one has yet explained the intricacies of the 'Caveat!' in the 482 Visa. Could you please provide more details on this for us? Additionally, if possible, shed some light on whether a company can sponsor an individual with only three employees. Your expertise is invaluable to us. Thanks again!
Ah yes that is true and a very good point. Will put it on my list to mention.
So happy for Tuvalu! They truly need the help. Way to go Australia 👏🏼
Yeah!
Thanks Karl, we wait for your video each week to learn of any visa updates on 189 grants. Thank you !
Your welcome, stay tuned and fingers crossed for you
Thank you Karl, Dama for 186 visa has Victoria agreements?
You’re a legend, Karl! Great video as always. Maybe a stupid question. I’m currently 1 year into my 482 - 2 year visa. When should I start looking at extending my visa or maybe apply for a 186 (not sure if my occupation is on the medium or long term stream). Thank you again.
Hi, Daniel
Please book an appointment to discuss your circumstances via our website at www.australiavisa.com or call us on +61 (02) 8054 2537. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.
Hi Karl. I applied for 482 under Dama labour agreement. I've been waiting since October 15th and my wife is also waiting offshore. She received an S56 request for other documents for polio certificate i already submitted in just one day after we submitted our applications. She is the secondary applicant, so I'm wondering how long it will take to process our applications?
Thanks Karl again for this weekly immigration updates. This December will mark my 1 year of long waiting 189 PR approval, and I do not know what the department is up to apart from the nonsense median figures. My employer is showing helps with my PR application but it seems that I have to wait till the expiration of visa 407 in order to move on. May I ask if there is any advice on my issue Karl?

One question Karl regarding NAATI test as one side aus immig is having marks for good english 10/20 and at the same time they want some other language capability which is not spoken in aus and give 5 marks for that. Which is contradictory with each other!! Also common sense wise did not get what is use of these NAATI marks in skilled immigration?
Hi Karl, Thank you. I would like to ask is there any chance for 189 this year??
Hmmmm, have a feeling they maybe keeping the 189 invitations until after they modify the points test, but have to wait and see. Best og luck to you and thanks for watching
Thank you, Karl, for all of your updates. While my niece was waiting for her visa. She finally got her 189 visa last week after waiting since Dec 2022. your updates helped us stay motivated and gave us hope.
Thanks for sharing great news ! Glad we could help out with your journey.
Thanks Karl!
Any 491 visa grants recently?
Not many, sorry
thank you karl for sharing updating us regarding visa and changes, but there is no mention time period in subsequent 491 visa even i call immigration department they also don’t know can you update me if you have some information regarding that thank you
You can expect 6mths+ these days I'm afraid but it can get better anytime
Hey Carl, I watch your update every week and it seems that it's all about the same issue. How can you help with subclass 300 and where are we at with that?
I have raised it numerous times I'm afraid. We need people to come on the show and talk about themselves
Hello Karl
Thanks for this amazing video
Can you please tell me how much time does it take for the case officer to grant 491 vjsa after S56 documents submission.
Hello Karl, Great way of covering the required announcements and real records.
Thank you for the positive comment.
Hi Karl
Thank you for all the information. I’m just wondering is this 482 visa changes including for Dama sponsorship as well? I’m in 482 Dama in NT. Am I eligible for 186 after I completed my 2 years?
Please book an appointment to discuss your circumstances via our website at www.australiavisa.com or call us on +61 (02) 8054 2537. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.
Through my solicitor, I've been waiting for my FOI for me and my parents for almost half a year before I received a decline. They ask I have a handwritten letter from my parents and I when our IDs and signature is not enough?? No such thing is mentioned until the last response and their decision letter.
Not sure of all the circumstances, please book a time if you need assistance
Hi Karl..thank you for the updates..just wanted to know when will 491 visa grants will be issued to offshore for those applied in 2022 November?
Please keep an eye on processing times and we talk about the updates when they occur
Thanks Karl, look forward to your video each weekend as we wait for a 190 invitation. It was interesting seeing how far Tasmania is through their 190 quota. Is it possible to see this or estimate it for the other states?
Other states don’t really follow the same data transparency based on what I can find on state and territory websites. ACT and WA do offer regular data updates but NSW is one of such state that provides no official data and all you can do is wait.
I wish it was! WA is quite good and ACT not bad either but the others are hopeless. Thanks for your support.
Been waiting for 189 grant for 11 months. Getting so paranoid now.
Thanks for digging out such information all of your viewers ❤❤
Thank you for the positive comment.
My spouse is on PR in Australia.
Me and my child have also applied for Patner and child PR recently
Can we travel on any other visa and stay with my Spouse until our Partner Visa comes??
Hey karl! You talked about 189 invite delays a couple weeks ago, any updates? My whv expires in january and need the invite before then!
Not sure what is going on with them these days. Fingers crossed for you
Thanks, Karl, for all the informations.
My pleasure! Preethi.
I have a question. Once you become a citizen and say it’s dual can I travel outside of Australia on my native country’s passport or is it an absolute must to use my Australian passport? When I read articles it says you should which I am not reading is an absolute must. Am I wrong for my interpretation of the advice?
@@TheJonnyP54 are you a migration agent?
@@TheJonnyP54 yep ok this is why I am asking this guy. I have read and multiple times it says should but that’s not the same as must.
@@TheJonnyP54 travel for work 4 days after ceremony. I know there is urgent passport but what are the options if can’t delay travel and passport is not ready in time.
Thanks Karl
Can Dama system be part of 186 visa application ??
What is the processing time for 186 visa.
Thanks
186 usually take about 12 months. Yes to go to PR DAMA visa holders use the 186.
Hello Karl, your video is so informative.
I have a question about a Labour Market Agreement.
How long does it take to a Company from Australia to process their Labour Market Agreement right now?
I have applied a 482 Visa and the Company said that they are currently applying the Labour Market Agreement.
Hmm, if it is for the aged care agreement maybe quicker but usually about 6 months at least.
Hello Karl, Thanks for sharing such invaluable information. Always wait for your new updates. One of my query is on processing time for 190 visa- Now since govt. has reduced processing time to 9 months (90% appl.) from 13 months, will it affect visa timings for visa lodged in March 23 for Management Consultant ? By when we can expect final approval?
Usually about 12 months for 190 so hopefully soon for you
Hi Karl,
You mentioned that occupations in Medium-Long term stream can access to PR stream earlier than years if your sponsor wants to do that. Does it mean I can apply for my 186 Trt lets say three months after of getting 482 medium-long term visa?
Was talking about DE stream there if they want to or can depending upon the occupation. Thanks for your comment
Hi Karl, do you know long your English test needs to be valid before you apply for your visa?
Im afraid that depends upon the visa so you will ned to check
Good afternoon sir thanks for informational video and why 491 visa global processing time increased ...what are chances for state territory nominated people?
This year is not good so far but it will improve for next FY
Hi karl, a big fan of you. I lodged subclass 190 on March,4, 22023. Can i expect a grant in this fiscal year ? Or will they grant me in the next fy ? What do you expect?
Congratulations and thanks for watching. Probably not going to be granted this FY but dont worry it will happen
Hey Karl, thanks for another amazing video
I have a question
Do you think studying Graduate diploma of early childhood a good option and would it still be in demand in the future?
Yes it is a great option as the demand will be there for some time into the future
Hi karl,
Your interview with Mr Phil honeywood about the GST in student visa and migration review changes in sep/oct hasn't proved to be true till now.
What are your thoughts on it?
Yes not yet but it is coming we expect along with many other changes so stay tuned
DHA can put Visa with flowers on the Grave of backlog applicants. There is no updates till now. It's been 4 years. What we do Karl? Who can help us? Xmas vacation is coming. Life is going to darker to darker. Any leagel movement can help us?
I really wish I could but theya re so unaccountable that it produces crazy situations like yours. Hang in there they have to process it.
Hi karl, can you update please on 491 visa processing. Thanks
We did last week in the processing times and it was not preety
Hello Karl, the 476 visa grants have been stopped since two weeks, any update that you know of?
Have not heard about this , I hope that is not going to continue
Yes, I hope that too.
Hi Karl, thank you for your information. Please i want to ask; after getting a 482 visa, can i study a masters degree online part time and use it to gain points for the 189 visa application?
Yes you can study but it depends what points you are looking for
@@ailsaustralia to gain points for studies in Australia.. that's an extra additional points
Hi Karl. Your channel is very informative and helpful. I recently submitted my visa fee and got S-56 request next day for me and my wife medical and more employment proofs. I was very surprised and happy. Is this normal to receive S-56 within 1 day? Thanks for weekely updates mate.
Yes sometimes so that is a good sign. Good luck
@hasnan7 . I also got s56 in one day for my wife case officer asked for polio certificate card
@@janiahhsjsjisn Thats great man. If you don't mind asking who was the primary applicant and what are your professions?
I think they should increase the age limit for 186 visa as well because most of the skilled labour are above the age of 45 ...
Yes and that will probably happen soon enough. Probably will start with limited occupations.
Hello Karl thank you so much can I apply 186 after 6 years of full time as a Chef with RPL thru?
Please book an appointment to discuss your circumstances via our website at www.australiavisa.com or call us on +61 (02) 8054 2537. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.
Thanks for the update Karl! I feel 190 is still taking 12 months, despite the processing time showing as 9 months for 90%... still long wait...
Compared to partner visa application, 12 month waiting, while not good, imo is not too bad either. At least one can have some hope this is how long one generally needs to wait.
@@estellebright2579 I understand, we are also in this visa journey for 6 years now.. hope we all get it soon..
Fingers crossed for you but yes 12months seem the norm
@@ThisIsAmita me 8 and heading towards 9. Fingers crossed.
5 years this side. 189 waiting😢
What are the chances of winning in AAT 189 refusal on expired and renewed English test within sixty days of invite?
Ah that is complicated as english levels have their own definitions under the law which is different to skill assessment results. Please book a time if you need assistance
Hi Karl, thank you for the updates. I would like to get your opinion about the best route to PR. My son is studying bachelor of electrical and electronic engineering in Western Australia right now. After completing his studies, he plans to apply for the post graduate visa and find a job there and eventually apply for PR.. but what is the best way to take to increase his chances of getting PR?
if your son job is in the skill occupation list then he can apply for pr
there is many pr visas and he can choose the one he prefer to apply for
being a bachelor graduate, he can apply for post study work visa instead of post graduate work visa
post study work visa has a longer duration
also australia has a pr quota of 190000 per year so if he get the chance to get pr, he can get pr

Thanks for making it so much easier for us👍👍👍
Thank you for the positive comment.
Please explain about 485 visa holders applying for 186 DE who worked for the same employer for 3 years.
Nope, unless you meet the usual DE requirements
Average processing time for 491has increased from 16 months to 22 months. Which feels like never ending process. Worst part is applicants cant even ask questions for the long visa processing time.
I know they are completely unaccountable regarding their service delivery
Why Australia government is not worried for years waiting period for visas
What are your thoughts on 190 invitations for NSW, Karl ?
Some are trickling through, many for offshore people
For those seeking NSW 190/491 nomination in 2023-2024 FY, there is a subtle but easy to miss new requirement in 2023-2024 FY being added compared to 2022-2023 FY:
You CANNOT modify your EOI after receiving invitation from NSW. The NSW government says they will check the last update date in your EOI to ensure compliance.
If you login to your SkillSelect account, there is a DOHA correspondence section that records every time you make any change to your EOI regardless of the reason. I guess NSW government will check that section to know if you modify the EOI post-invitation.
This new requirement DID NOT EXIST in previous financial year.
Moral of the story is: check your EOI thoroughly and make sure it is flawless while you wait for NSW 190/491 invitation.
Thanks Estelle
Any idea what is government planning on doing with subclass 189???
They could be waiting for the new points test to be rolled out
Plz inquire about the partner visa offshore ? What is the news.
Sorry no news to give you any cheer
Thank you Karl. God bless you!
Love you xoxoo
You are so welcome. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.
482! What minefield!
I am waiting for 190 visa for 7 months, I do not know how long it will take.
12 months is more the usual time frame
Sir, i have question I’m mechanic almost 5 years but I am struggling to my English test is that any alternative way I’m 3 times test already but failed. There is easy yes way to apply the 186 visa without any English test if only possible. Atleast for children im already 41 years old.

Kiwis used to be the infrastructure builders, but Aussie deports them now in huge numbers.
How many days it takes to grant visa after lodging visa application in subclass 482 medium term
Depends but sometimes only a few days
Nobody raising voice over waiting periods for visas
Hi Karl, thanks for the videos
Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.
Hello sir,
I submitted my application before 2 months,still I don't get outcome of my skill assessment first step documentary evidence .
Please guide and give me a reason.
You have to be patient, it took 4 months for me to get my skill assessment outcome, hang in there buddy 😊
You need to ask them for we are not the skill assessment authority
Hy Karl I apply my Graduate visa 485 on July but haven't get yet. I'm currently on student visa and will expire on September 2024 does that mean I will not get visa till next September.
No they should not take long to process it.
@@ailsaustralia yes theyshouldnt I have 3 friend who apply with me same time but they also haven't got it yet thank you Karl
Thanks karl your weekly updated video is amazing i wanted to ask you that their is some discripency between 186 English competency requirements in direct entry visa and on other site skill assessment for direct entry visa requires 65 score in PTE and same in ielts as well would u please elaborate more why their is differences?
DE needs competent English and a skill assessment on the LT list and 3 years experience in general. We have a vidoe on that already
Karl, when will the next 189 round be?
Hopefully soon!
494 visa holders also come under labour market ..why department not reduce years for 494 to apply 191 visa from 3 to 2 years? 494 also employer sponsor visa and even visa holder can stay only in regional which is more hard.. please raise a voice for 494 visa holders to reduce the years to appy 191 visa .. thanks
Yeah I know but the 494 is tied t the 191 so its more complicated
yes please help raise your voice for us 494 visa holders too...
amazing and informative videos as always
thank you for helping us
respect ❤
Thanks Jasveer for the feedback
Sir, any news for 489 visa waiting applicants??
Sorry have not heard of anything that can help. Hope it comes soon for you
Hey Karl, been following you`re channel for a long time, our education agents in Pakistan say that Australia is not issuing student visas in Pakistan as they are still deciding on a proper policy for visas, I really suffered as I had to enroll in bachelors in my own country while I wanted to pursue Studies in Australia. Kindly give your feedback on this, i`d really appreciate if you make a video about this, it`ll help alot of students willing to study in Australia.
It is sad if they are doing that waisting peoples time and money when they know already they have reduced numbers or even stopped alltogether. I wish I had some hard evidence to push this issue
Dear sir..
As dha has hired a lot of employees for clearing their backlog...
So can we expect a big round sooner for 189?
Your response will be appreciated
Thnks
Hope so, but maybe not till next year
I think nobody will go for 494 regional employer sponsor visa .. now regional employer will wait for employee . Why anyone go to regional for 494 if he can get PR by working in city area and in 2 years.. looks like very funny decision for regional employers..
True but there are many more occupations that can be used for the 494 visa
Whatever wait for grant for visas is extremely high….somebody will lose interest in Australia
Present Sir 😂
:)
Hi Karl, Totally disappointed this time from you for not raising the issue of prioritising offshore candidates instead of skilful onshore candidates which creates extra pressure on limited infrastructure in Australia including housing crisis and also ineligibility of skilled people working in their own occupation to apply EOI in another state baring the state they live and WA. It’s inhumane to bring skilled people from offshore by all the states and territories when we have heaps of skilled people already living and working in Australia in different states and territories. I hope you bring this issue in upcoming video. Thanks for the information as always
@@SuriSinghs your statement doesn’t make sense, if people are skilful and are contributing to the Australian economy, there’s no point in bringing candidates from offshore when we have heaps in onshore
There are already plentiful skilled people onshore, so why they shall bring more people from offshore and add problems to infrastructure, medical and housing?
@@ggill2311 Exactly that’s what I am saying and requesting Karl to raise this issue and bring attention of the government
@@ggill2311If those plentiful skilled people onshore had been sufficient for Australia, there wouldn’t have been any skilled shortage. You need to look at dozens of reports compiled by Jobs and Skills Australia. AU needs skilled migrants from offshore. For sure, visa system needs an overhaul. Those skilled onshore people who genuinely study/work should have an easier way to PR over offshore candidates.
That being said, we all know how plenty of onshore people exploit the system by jumping from a course to another, leave their studies, being permanent Uber driver, which is not in favour of Australia. Genuine skilled offshore candidates can do much better.
Last but not least, considering retiring boomers, AU needs young blood which is to be imported. At the end, this is a complex issue that requires clever politicians/strategies to solve.
PS: All onshore migrants were once offshore ;)
@@Johnwatto12 Sorry, I misread :(
One quick one for you, regardless of the visa I'll state that the visa system in Australia has become a maze.
Million conditions to throw you off make you seek a way in for PR while using your best years of your life.
No one will care about you at the end while you pay absolutely the same tax as everyone else but not getting any benefits that the worst donk worthless Aussie will do.
Well done to the land of missed opportunities
Understand how you feel and no matter how simpler the Labour government can make things, the immigration department themselves will take over and make things complicated and then the sates have their own versions of complicated.
First comment
Well done!
what about NSW 190 invitation round?????
As far as we know we have not heard of anyone, but maybe some lucky people have received invitations
@@ailsaustralia I received, but I made a mistake on my EOI...so I had to withdraw my EOI and submit a new one ....I'm a physiotherapist
@@OshoLee unfortunately NSW is one of those states that just invite whenever they feel like it, with no transparency whatsoever (they used to have some back in 2018 and before, but no longer).
