this is actually ARTICLE,,,,POST FOR REFUND
Thank for doing this program and raising this issue - as a practitioner with a number of General Skilled Migration clients I, too, feel at a loss as to what to advise those who have been waiting for a good part of 18 months now and are likely to have to wait for up to 2 years or more for their applications to be processed. They are in limbo, they cannot plan their future, it affects them in the first instance and subsequently their families overseas. The emotional investment, let alone the financial one, is significant, with little to show for it, except for a bridging visa A that allows them to stay Australia and work, albeit with little opportunities for well paid and/or permanent employment, and a transaction record number (TRN)with which they can ring the department, with a next-to-no chance of getting any guidance as to when their applications are likely to be processed or where things are at.
According to conservative calculations, if there are about 60,000 applicants in the pipeline, that's about $150mil in income to DIAC for not doing terribly much but let s not shoot the messengers this requires political will.
Consideration must be given to the refund of visa application charges for those who simply cannot or don t want to wait that long. It would be the right and fair thing to do.
We are all complicit in the active promotion of a different class of people who have little access to services, who definitely experience a sort of 'voluntary' detention (as one cannot leave Australia unless there are compelling reasons to get a Bridging Visa B) and are still expected to pay their way and live their lives as do citizens of this country, but with no support, and put up with it for what seems to be a very long period of time.
No-one wants to know about this because it's too difficult to deal with and general opinion is likely to be that they are somehow privileged to be here so they should put up or shup up .
We don t seem to owe any duty of care to temporary residents because that s just what they are, temps, which need to prove themselves worthy of a permanent visa by being highly skilled, points-tested, English-speaking, of impeccable character, in optimum health and relatively young (under 45). They are paying significant amounts of money for the privilige of having to show all of this and yet, it s going to be a very, very long wait
This situation has led to confusion, false hopes and despair for many GSM applicants and current students who aspire to apply for permanent residency after their studies - a perfectly legal and genuine pathway to permanent migraiton. s
I've been in Australia for over 35 years and this is not all that new - all governments have chopped and changed rules and processes when it comes to managing migration numbers. Migration law is, after all, administrative law - however, it affects people. They re not just TRNs or labels according to visa subclasses, they are people like us, with aspirations and hopes for a better future and they are part of Australia's future.
