Just received a response from the acting immigration minister office

Receiving Direct grants is a clear indication that applications are complete. ..it is matter of just working on those files. Just answering round the bush away from the topic. 

Anyways.. it seems they have got the underlying message here.. the grants for last few days are certainly stating that.. 

Applicants - Please keep all the documentation up to date.. dont wait for a query.. this forum has enough info and support on most the documents...

This e mail came from  Senator Kristina Keneally now. After our mailbomb

Good afternoon

 

Thank you for contacting me with your concerns regarding the 887 Regional Skilled Visa wait times. I note the Department of Home Affairs website states they are currently assessing applications submitted before November 2018.

 

These delays are having major impacts on individuals and families waiting for visas to be processed. The Morrison Government has made many statements about the significance of regional migration, yet have failed to provide support to people seeking to live and work regionally. 

 

Visa processing delays are a problem of the Morrison Government’s own making as they’ve slashed frontline staff in the Department of Home Affairs who process visa applications. 

 

Delays in visa processing times mean people are waiting longer to be reunited with family members, businesses are waiting longer to access the skills they require, and people are putting their lives on hold waiting for visa decisions – particularly regional Australia.

 

Labor strongly believes in upholding the integrity of Australia’s immigration system.

 

However, with the COVID-19 crisis confronting Australia, I am aware that many visa holders in Australia cannot get clear answers out of the Department of Home Affairs about when their visas will be processed. This is unacceptable. 

 

I note that the Acting Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs, Alan Tudge, has not provided any indication of how the Government will manage the issue of visa processing delays.

 

It is important that the Government explain how they will ensure that visas are processed in a timely manner during this time. 

 

I urge you to contact the Acting Minister: 

 

The Hon Alan Tudge MP 

Acting Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs 

Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600  

Phone: (02) 6277 7790  

alan.tudge.mp@aph.gov.au

 

I am also concerned that the Government has not yet provided meaningful support to temporary visa holders who cannot return home. 

 

Labor has lobbied hard for the expansion of appropriate government support to a wide range of workers who miss out of the JobKeeper program, including casuals, university workers, local council workers, and temporary visa holders who cannot get home.

 

While the Government has rejected many of Labor’s constructive suggestions, it is important for you to know that two Federal Government Ministers can, with a stroke of a pen, change all of that. 

 

Thanks to Labor’s work in the Parliament, the Treasurer, Josh Frydenberg, and the Social Services Minister, Anne Ruston, can now provide any temporary visa holders with access to JobKeeper, JobSeeker, or another appropriate social security payments. 

 

I don’t think that Minister Ruston or the Treasurer appreciate that, with the stroke of a pen, they can change real lives. They need to hear the stories of people with temporary visas who are stuck in Australia and need help. 

 

If you have a story that you think Minister Ruston or the Treasurer should hear, or you know a temporary visa holder who has a story these two ministers should hear, please complete this form. 

 

I will be taking these stories and asking Minister Ruston and the Treasurer to respond. This is your chance to have your story heard by the two people who can provide meaningful support to temporary visa holders who cannot return home.

 

During this challenging time, I believe it is imperative for us to look after all people in our community – including those on temporary visas.  

 

Yours sincerely, 

 

Kristina
