Hi i applied for Aussie PR at the LA consulate about 2 months back.
lot of people have been stating that the processing time has been extended now as some people in the pas got their Pr in about 2-3 months from the date the application was filed.

Infact they asked for my Originals and i sent them and then they sent those back.

I havent heard anything else.
Im confused ...does somebody knows anything about this...or how their process goes.
plz advise

Hi, How did you submit proof of English Language ability? Can you also please tell me what are the documents did you submit? I got my ACS skills assessment letter and I want to apply. From 1st Nov 2001, we need to submit directly to Australia itseems. Please let me know about the documents. Thank you.

I had taken TOEFEL test about 3 yrs back, that was the only english Language ability proof that i submitted,
The documents i submitted were
1. Degrees and Marksheets
2. High School certificates
3. Experience letters from my employers.
4. ACS assesment letter proving you are suitable for migration.
5. Certificates of couple of courses which i took for specialization in a particular field.
That was all i submitted i guess. Yes thats true from 1st Nov all the applications need to be submitted to Australia.
If u have any more questions let me know

Thank you very much for your response.
I do not have anything like TOEFEL as a proof of English Language ability. Will it be a probelm? Do you have any idea whether I need to take any test before I submit the application? or wait until I get a response from them?

Also, did you submit your original ACS assessment letter?
 
No Title

Yes i submitted the original ACS assesment,
Well i used an immigration agent to file my case, you can apply and it might be possible that they can ask for the English Language Ability, so i would suggest that you can apply right away and also take the test so by the time they ask you for the proof of Anglish Language ability you could have already cleared it and it saves you time too.
Also they are taking too long to process applications now it is taking between 6-8 months to process the cases filed in Australia as this is the case now but mine was filed at LA...but thats the response i got from them.
 
Re: Aussie Migration

I applied almost a year ago and then it was quite fast.
You should be receiving medical forms soon. Once they
were ready to send me the medical forms they sent
me an email telling me that I would receive them.
You will also need a Police clearance certifiate for the last
10 yrs. If you got your passport renewed in US,
and haven\'t lived here for 10yrs, you can get a clearance from the
Indian Consulate in US, otherwise, you will have to get one from
India.

(ps: I did not send original certificates but only sent them certified copies
which were acceptable to them)
 
How long does it take after medical papers have been sent & what are the next steps

I submitted my medical papers 4 weeks ago to LA consulate. What to expect now?

Thanks

Hi,
As long as you have a degree from an American University, you should be fine. TOEFL was not required from me. Hope this helps.

Hi, so did you apply without TOEFL cert. and they did not ask you for any proof of English? But I do not have degreee from American University. I have my Masters degree in Computers from Indian University. I am not sure how they consider this degree.

I dont think thats a problem , like i said apply for ur PR and then take proof of english test side by side so that incase they ask you for that u have it and u save time too..
