Guest whitleybairn Posted May 25, 2009 Wow, had my 119 RSMS visa granted today! :biggrin: ...is it normal to feel excited and very scared at the same time? For those currently applying for 119 visas (and other employer sponsored visas, here is my timeline so you can try and compare where you are. Nomination papers sent to DIAC by employer - January 15th 2009 Nomination approved by DIAC - March 6th 2009 Visa application sent (front loaded with PCCs and form 80) - March 12th 2009 Application acknowledged - March 19th 2009 Case officer appointed - 1st April 2009 Medicals done - 6th April 2009 Medicals arrived in Sydney - 20th April 2009 Meds acknowledged as received - 28th April 2009 Wife's medicals finalised - 12th May 2009 My medicals finalised - 21st May 2009 - still trying to figure out why the difference in finalisation time... Visa granted - 25th May 2009 I'm off to celebrate and expect to have a hangover tomorrow morning! Good luck to everyone. Regards, Scott. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
