As international students affected by the age cap on 485 TGR visa we tend to look for some respite. But so far we are living in despair, completely devastated and helpless. Thank you as you have been standing by truth and fairness. We will need your support Karl.
For Now we can only keep hassling them that they might relent. Thanks for your support
My partner and I are in your same situation. We still believe in a solution or pack everything up and say good by to our dreams and money invested. We have this feeling too
me too, everything is meaningless now

My two girls and I are in this situation
Hello, Karl. Thank you as usual for the update. In your opinion, when do you think the new point system will be applied?
Hi Karl,
Thanks for the great insight, as usual of great quality.
Any clue if the TRA processing times are affecting all of their programs? Waiting on a MSA outcome since October, an estimate of 120 days was given upon lodging. However, in February it has been stated that it may take longer than that.
Hi,
I have A question that the DHA has leaked the confidential state allocation data to the AFR as it’s a private entity is it right…..? or it’s not leaked as it’s normal release to a newspaper by minister really confused kindly clear this thank you.
Can you comment on the huge 190 visa backlog? around 20,000 190 visa applications lodged between Mar - Jun 2023 have not received their grants. Most of their health examinations have expired (over 12 months), is it possible for the DHA to issue 20,000 S56 for health examinations in recent weeks? or they will have mercy and not send out those S56s. Can you answer that thanks
Once again, Karl, his company and this channel is doing wayyy more than others are able to in giving migrants a voice for the injustice they face in this country.
Well done, Karl ❤
Thank you!
What's that location where you're basking in the sun near a creek?
Conrad, your video has lots of information however you are forgetting that Australia needs highly skilled and experienced people who will contribute more to Australia. I am also a migrant but got tons of experience overseas before moving to Australia. I think you should be transparent to highlight that Australia needs highly skilled workers with lots of experience and not just newly grad from University It doesn’t make sense to get a cadet engineer for a highly skilled worker/ engineer required by the company. My point is to be straightforward to state that highly skilled is required and not just a pure education background, e.g. process engineers, mining engineers, geologists, petroleum engineers, drillers, riggers, wind or turbine engineers, etc.
My employer applied for 186 normination for my Australia RN job for 2 weeks now.
How many weeks or months does it take for Home Affairs to approve my 186 employer nomination application?.
Thank you Karl🙏
Hi karl
Can you please provide information regarding 191 visa processing times.
There hasn’t been a single grant since may this year if you can please provide any info regarding this .
Thank you
any news when the visa grants for 491 will resume still a huge backup piling up for last year
Hi Karl, I applied for 485 visa on 26/06/2024, however, I received the letter of completion on 28/06/2024. And accordingly, updated or uploaded the letter on the same day. However, recently I saw few visa refusals based on application of 485 Visa before or on the same day of course completion date. Can you provide some insights on this?
Hi Karl, can’t restriction >35 yrs for current students taken as movement appeal to government?
Great vids and amazing channel! Could you kindly give ur view on when to wait any updates on 491 visas, Sir? I lodged my application on 26.03.23 and got s56 request on 10.05.24 but no response from here.. Is there any actual time frames? Thank you in advance, Sir.
Hi Karl, has the invitation opened in Western Auatralia for construction? Whats the minimum poibt for lodging if I have finished Advance Diploma of Civil Construction Design for EOI? Also, how long does the opening of invitation goes for? Thank you.
No details yet but there will be, stay tuned
What happens if you leave your job before the TRA skills assessment (Job Ready Program) is processed but after having worked the required amount of time?
Because your contract can end before the TRA skills assessment is processed with the new random processing time.
If you apply but have to wait 15 months while your contract was 13 months with a given company, what's next?
Im sorry but you will have to ask the TRA that question
It takes soooo longgggg for my 190 visa application to get finalized. what's going on with the system. it's 17 months for my application already :(
Hi Karl, just a quick question, is it posibble to book a consultation with you via online? I'm from offshore and need some advices for my current EOI. Please let me know on how to book an appointment. Thanks Karl
it was all on the website
I have submitted Expression of Interest (EOI) last night as an offshore candidate
- for the 491 visa with 100 points
- for the 190 visa with 90 points
- for the 189 visa with 85 points
applying as a production engineer and my wife is chemical engineer. .
What are my chances?
Will it take years to get a response?
Is there any chance to reduce the matrix points in ACT for 190/491 in this financial year??
Unfortunately that is above my paygrade
Hello sir!!!! I’m looking forward to migrate to Australia, is there a sponsorship program I can apply?
Hello sir i have a question my husband have the all requirements for visa 494 employer , skill assessment , PTE but we cant lodge the application as we have to get Market rate salary approval from the home-affairs and it takes so long around 2 months and we can know what we can do
Do you know any thing about this step
Hi, what are the chances for ICT business development manager offshore, 190 with 90points and 491 with 100points?
Sir like now days many loophole visas like sc600/485 also kn future 408 are in danger and the loophole of changing tourist and theses visas to student are fully closed soo please say me will they also make same as these to training visa 407 also in future what you think? According to me 407 to student in same occupation is genuine soo it shouldn't affect in future to change in 407 to student am i right?
After losing my visa due to Covid border closures I did the V-assess skills assessment, which took 11 months to complete. Had I have known it would take this long of course I would have opted for priority processing. Nearing 40 now, I am on a knifes edges to try and get back to my previous life (7+ years in Aus with family in country).
Wow that is a crazy long time to wait. Good luck in your EOI's
Hello
I need some advise. I am confused with my experience
I have completed my 2 years of Masters of technology (enterprise systems and business analytics)
IT Professional year is also done
I have 1 year of experience as an Logistics Business Analyst
And currently I am working as an Business Planning Analyst.
So does this experience will be valid for PR ?
Im assuming the TRA internal complaint system will be pointless? Is there an ombudsman that governs them that’s worth complaining to?
Not that we are aware of unfortunately
How many scores require in pte exam for 491 dairy farmer

Hi Sir,
Hope you are doing well.
I need a clarification regarding AITSL Skill Assessment..
Below are my Australian Qualifications:
Masters - 2 Years (Full-time)
Diploma of L & M- 1 Year (Full-time)
Advanced Diploma of L & M- 1 Year (Full-time).
Graduate diploma in ECE- 1 Year (full-time).
So, did i meet 4 years Australian study requirements to eliminate IELTS test scores R-7, W-7, L-8, S-7 for the skill assessment?
Because Advanced diploma of L & M comes under AQF Level -6, and on the AITSL Website it says qualifications comparable to AQF Level 7 or higher...
So, could you please give a clarification on my case.
Thank you
Create an account with Ailts for skill assessment and the system will tell if you are eligible . I did create mine and upload the documents but while I wanted to cheat the system by telling it I studied in English speaking countries it couldn’t accept and required eilts . It’s automatic n easy
Please raise your question with them or book a time to discuss
Thanks Karl for ur efforts!
I dun understand what u r referring to 6:54 .. does that mean if I applied before 1st of July and I am over 35 and I have done a master of IT two years, I wont be granted the five yrs 485?
that seems to have been occuring lately, yes
No you won’t based on others experience
@@sarah9029, will the visa be refused, or will the duration be shorter?
Sir if they officially remove chef from csol core skills pathway in skill in demand visa will it affect 186DE chef
Can I apply for 186 visa? I just received my 482 visa 2 months ago. Do I have to cancel my 482 visa first and apply for 186 visa? Thank you Karl.
No you can lodge the 186 visa whilst holding the 482 visa
@@ailsaustraliafor 186 do I need to do skill assessment as a teacher with Ailts? Also do I need to get something from employer for I to lodge
For me the most annoying point is we can’t do anything path way to get PR without the skill assessment so as he said we run out of time and not available to apply to any PR way because we (485)can’t apply to another visa to wait for the express of interest
Karl is a star❤
Not really but thanks for the support anyway
I am a civil engineer applied for 190 visa in the month of Aug 2023 when can I expect the grant
Hi Karl,
Is there any updates on partner visa? Is there any chance of improvement in waiting period?
There should be but unfortunately not. Just need to wait them out
Hello Karl, you're doing fabulous work. Appreciate you work. Can you please rise a voice for 191 visa pending for approval. Its been 5 months on but no update on our applications. Please help us.
Yes that has slowed down and we will keep an eye on it after the grants start flowing again
Will the student visa restrictions for 485 holders be applied at the time of decision? If someone’s 485 expired in June and applied student visa in June but not granted student visa yet, should there be any issue?
If you applied before the 1st of July it should not be an issue
Thanks Karl!
Sir how we Will get sponsor?
Hi AILS
Just fyi, for some of those cases about the 485 where the length should have been 4+, and got 2 instead, DOHA has acknowledge an error and has communicated that the visas shall be rectified. It seems that there was an error with their system, which has been a common occurrence over the years with the changes to the 485.
If you have any evidence of that communication please share it with everyone so we can place it on the channel
Please share that information!!
@@ailsaustralia Apologies. As this wan't my case I don't have those communications. The information was posted by those affected. There is a thread on this subreddit
r/AusVisa/comments/1dspn4n/485_visa_grant/
I am also waiting on my JRWA but i really appreciate your work ❤
Thanks I hope yours goes as quickly as possible
Hi Karl, so can we stil hope something positive about age cap for existing students for 485? What do you think?
It's not over yet, stay tuned
Waiting since 28month for 491 grant multiple requests for s56, can we sue?

Hi Sir, ACS has cut off two years of experience, so in the employment section in EOI should i cut those two years and show the years of experience or should we show the actual experience from starting to end?
Hi. Is it because your degree(major) does not match with work experience ?
@@vyshakmadhusudan441 as far as i know, ACS normally deducts 2 yrs of exp. Irrespective of ur occupation & May be they consider it as a training period.

So helpful content.
Fantastic, thanks so much for your support!
hey mate ... how you going,..
thanks for the awesome video...
Thank you for watching.
Its already 2 and half year still my skill assessment also havent done my visa also almost about to expire i hold 485 visa and new changes of 485 visa killing too. Even i am working my occupation.
So karl when will they start granting to 491 visa applicants who got s56
That cannot be answered because getting the request often does not mean a great deal

Any preferences/ advantages for onshore and offshore applicants for 491 visa?
Not really
@ailsaustralia I heard that preferences are given to onshore applicants.
Thank you Karl and team, appreciate the updates, ur work, ur humanity and support at the darkest hours. Really hope you would lead the class action and i am more than willing to contribute however i can, even tho i have to leave this year, being 35+. Im applauded by the government's inhumanity. But i am thankful to have studied here. Invested in my dream career, and now i will be of use as a nurse in another country that would accept me, my skills and my potentials 😂
lets see what can be arranged
Can you help me to apply 190 visa
What happens if his 485 expires while TRA is still assessing his eligibility for the Job-Ready Program?
Yes that is the issue. You will need then to rely upon the employer to sponsor you
you can apply for another skill visa if you are eligible

Can I apply for 190 or 491 for accountant with only 70 points without work experience ?
No
Thank you Karl
Thank you for your support. Helena.
Everyone will agreed that the time spent waiting for the processing is really unacceptable. If staffing is the problem, the dept have to solve it. Saying Sorry will not help those applicants or anyone.
Yes I know, they should be warned if they cant process in time some other organisation can take over the job and enjoy the cash flow
I believe a Transitional Arrangement for Post-Higher Education Graduate Visa age limit such as allowing all graduates who studied in Australia before the migration strategy announcement of the migration strategy could be one of the most profound, just, and grandfatherly decisions Australia could ever make. ❤ I think immigration lawyers should come together to help the government see this. These students who have invested significant amount of resources to carry on with their studies with the expectation of an Australian workplace integration after graduation deserve to be treated fairly.
Thanks mate for your words. I wish we get work experience after studying in Australia. We are not old at all. We are as strong as rest of the people. Health matters more than the age.
Can we do something so that the government should reduce the delay time in TRA times ????
We are looking into it
which VISA is good for my brother to come to Australia ?
In all honesty try a different country. They change their rules every 6 months here. Absolutely no stability
hi Karl, what can be done by us who are crushed by government's denial of 485 transition? my friend who finished her semester on May got 5 yrs TR even though she is 35+ and i m starting my final semester but wont get TR not even for a day as I am 35+, hilarious predicament 😂
We are working on it, stay tuned
Thanks a lot Karl. I am in so much stress because of age cap even for existing students, please do something@@ailsaustralia

Hi Karl, Thanks for the update as always! You are doing a great job! Quick question! Do you think 190 state sponsorship allocation for NSW and VIC will be reduced in this FY2425 when compared to FY2324? It was 2650 and 2700 for NSW & VIC respectively. Please let me know your thoughts. Just trying to understand whether it will reduce or increase compared to last FY2324.
They are all getting a little more but nothing compared to before
Hi Karl, Thank you for keeping us updated as always. Do you know of any cases where South Australia has not updated ROI status? Apparently, they were supposed to update all the status by 30 June, but few ROI status are still not updated and remains as lodged in the portal. In this case, should applicants withdraw the ROI and reapply when its open or leave it as it is? Since there is no information around this situation, your insights would be highly beneficial for the applicants who are stuck without any update even after the due date.
Thank you for your help as always.
Karl is a Hero🎉

Hi Karl thank you for speaking on behalf of international students specially this 485 recent unfair changes. Karl DoHA said there will be no changes to second post higher education stream other than the proposed name but now you can age eligibility for second post study visa has been changed to 35 or younger. Because of this decision lot of people are in dark. I don’t know how they change this second visa without informing anyone? When you go to 485 visa changes web page in home affairs website still they mentioned there is no changes but when you open the visa details page you can see the changes. This is total surprise
Yeah I know, it is disgraceful behaviour from the government
The Australian government does not consider myself as ‘SKILLED’, even though I have 3+ years of on-site experience working as a Civil Engineer, furthermore, they have little to no information about; any pathways to PR for those individuals who are currently working in their field and have more than decent experience. Now the government is trying to put brakes even hard enough on us, leaving no options other than leaving the Country!
REALLY DISAPPOINTED! 🇦🇺
Yes they say they need skilled workers but are not giving the places needed
I’m on the same boat 😢having 3 years of experience as a civil drafter but it is still hard to find a way to become a PR. Government only made it much easier for the short term occupations last year so now they also can do 186 trt pathway after 482. But for long term, it’s still as hard as always been and nothing has become easier.
Too many people coming to Australia causing the cost of living going up.
