Wots the waiting time from sending Meds/Cop checks in???

Hi all.........
Can anyone out there put me out of my misery and give me a rough idea on the current time scale on decisions for those "golden visa's", once you have a case officer/file number and the medicals & police checks have been sent in??????
I Know there is more waiting in store (getting good at it now!!!) but how much longer........!!!

Hi, is that the Perm Res Visa - my husband deals with all the paperwork. We have had our medicals done today - police checks are up to 40 days wait. Once that is back 1 - 3 months is the time scale we have been given by our agent.

We sent away our police checks 2 weeks ago and we got them back today. They said they would take up to 40 days so really please they came back so quickly.

I think on average when they have got all your paperwork it takes upto 4 week to make a decision,ours took bang on 4 week and a day hope this helps ,,dont worry your nearly there !!!

From the police check and meds to actual visa was 3mnths. I think it depends we applied ourselves and where in constant contact with our immigration officer
