That is good to hear. My daughter's application was acknowledged on 9th April (no further questions asked), so that gives us a date of 9th July for a 'normal' date for a result. I think perhaps, come the end of June, she should give them a ring. The nudge may help if your experience is anything to go by. Thanks for the response.

From what I read on here, professional VETASSESS takes 12 /13 weeks, whereas trades are very much quicker. As my daughter is in the professional category, she can expect the longer wait. I think she has accepted that now - roll on July!

Congratulations!

Not far off. Took them 10 weeks for my daughter-in-law - no complications just time waiting. She finally got hers yesterday.

After 10 weeks, my daughter-in-law was finally granted her 457 Visa. At last!!!!

Congratulations!! How long did it take from when you submitted your VETASSESS?

My daughter in law was worried, until she checked with HR. They forgot to tell her that immigration asked a few questions last week - about the company, not her. They apologised and said they expected to hear end of next week as it was just minor stuff. ​The wait goes on.!!!!!

Congrats

​Congrats

The waiting game is a stressful one. ​As they didn't actually contact her for more info, I am assuming it is moving along nicely and that - being positive - she will get news soon.

My daughter was advised that her vetassess application was complete on 9th April. She has now been advised that it has moved to 'processing'. What does that mean?

​Any news as yet?

​Any news?

Good to hear they can be quick too.

As you have applied recently, I think your experience is relevant. It seems that there is a seasonal variation, and if she is unlucky enough to get an immigration officer that takes a holiday (I have been told) it sits on his or her desk until he/she gets back!
