I submitted on the 21st November. Meaning you're 85 days into your wait. The average wait time is roughly 120 days.

Hmm I thought that's what the column was. I didn't realise they process them in a different state than where you live or emigrating too etc

Guys, I'm wonder whether to add an additional "state" column (NSW, Qld, SA, Tas., Vic., WA). I see some October applicants being granted before September and I wonder if it's due to the state they will/are be living in? Might remove the ENS\RSMS column too. Don't see the point in that. Thoughts? Congrats to Josh

Whoever is CPB on the spreadsheet, can you please check your dates? Nom app submitted after your visa app. I don't think that's right?

We can't be certain of processing times, and as we've seen a small number of grants occur in the past few days I don't think it's as bad as you mention. Let's wait and see. Are your details on the spreadsheet?

Hi Sumon, please take a look at the spreadsheet, you'll see a notice about ICSE. Basically, any applications submitted on or after the 22nd November will be processed using the ICSE (Integrated Client Services Environment) whereas, previously they were using the GVP (General Visa Portal). I can't say for certain what impact that will have on processing speeds, however, it is known that some applications after the 22nd November will be processed before older applications. We believe this is because of internal training.

The new system is for applications after the 22nd Nov, Gem lodged on the 16th Oct. FWIW, I spoke with my MA and also noted that the ICSE message we all saw is in fact prioritising applications prior to Nov 22nd. So the new system will be a slower queue even though they are processing some before the older applications. I think were the lucky ones the more I think about is CSI :-)

True that! Was starting to panic ever so slightly. Your news didn't help this morning either Do we think that's a bit of glorified headlining or is that a legit source of news? Enjoy Caterinoz. Thanks for updating the spreadsheet.

It seems that someone got a little bit careless and trigger happy. They deleted all the data and associated graphs. Luckily google docs has revision history and I was able to restore back to an earlier copy. Let's hope its only a one time event. I've made a synced offline copy in the event we need to reupload. Cheers Byron

Does anyone know if there is a list that contains how many ENS 186 visas where applied for, and granted/refused, over the course of last year? Obviously our spreadsheet is only a very small percentage of what really is being processed, but it would be nice to see what sort of percentage that is.

They are still working on September, it's all very quiet on the visa grant side of things. According to the spreadsheet, you can probably expect your visa in 113 days on average but that number is climbing very fast, so best not get to excited :-) You're going to have to test your patience for a little while longer, as we all are. Keep an eye on the spreadsheet and you'll know more. Cheers
