I had a very similar time frame, visa application submitted 20th May and visa granted today 19th June (would have been last week but I just done medicals last week and they were uploaded yesterday by clinic). Things are moving fast, good luck to everyone waiting visa grants, hopefully not long for you all now!! My case officer was from Adelaide too, maybe they are just super quick there!!

Yes I believe all applicants over the age of 16 are generally requested to complete a From 80, as there are lots of questions on this, I recommend you start filling this in as soon as you can as it appears that COs are being allocated within a few weeks from visa lodge. Good luck with your visa, hopefully your grant will be soon too

Delighted to post my visa was granted today!!! Yippppeeeeeeee!!! Meds uploaded by clinic yesterday, received by immi today and visa granted straight away!! Process was super quick from first doing my IELTS just over 2 months ago, to getting skills assessment, to visa application and grant, feels magic!!! Thank you to everyone on POI that guided me through it, I think I would still be months away with out all your help and guidance, a massive thank you to you all!! xx

UK police check takes 10 working days (excluding postage time)

Once you get a CO assigned you have 28 days to provide information requested (althought this can be extended under certain circumstances). Have the PCC form downloaded and filled in also, it takes 10 working days to process (assuming you just require a UK police check). Medicals can generally be booked within 1 week and require a few days to process for tests. So if you are in no rush for your visa then and are happy to wait then I guess this is the right strategy for you. I am hoping to go before 12 months so I've opted to get the information ready as soon as i can. Where in oz are you hoping to go?

CO requested medical (which I booked last week for this Thursday) and form 80 (just complete and ready to upload - I think this may be required for everyone over 16, so if you haven't it downloaded and filled in already, I suggest you do this while waiting on CO, lots and lots and lots of questions to fill in on this form!!). Hoping for a visa grant within a few weeks Good luck with your visa, looks like CO's are being assigned within a few weeks, so hopefully you will get yours next week (remember to check your junk mail too, that is were i found mine this morning!!)

Just got email this morning, CO assigned 3 weeks to the day I submitted my 189 application!! Excited!!!

Amazing news Lou, delighted for you!!! Really appreciated all your guidance through my visa process, I'm hoping mine will be arriving soon too!!

Congrats, great news!! Enjoy the champagne, i've mine in the fridge, but think it will be a few weeks yet before it's opened!! Things are certainly moving fast this month, good news for all!!

Great, I might try and download another internet browser and try that, i have tried microsoft internet explorer and google chrome. Which browser did you get it to work on? Thanks

Hi Hugh, Everyone with 60 points got an invite on 22nd May. It is date ranked, so it is more than likely with submitting your EOI on 24th May you will get an invite on 3rd June. Good luck!!

hi bijit, i havent booked medicals yet, hopefully in next few weeks. most people seem to be abel to access the forms online on the same page you upload your evidence documents. my link doesnt seem to work. i just rang one of the medical centres and gave them my trn and they could access all my details from this. think it is worthwhile pre-booking meds before a co is assigned from what people are posting!! good luck

Hi Lou, Hope your medicals go well today!! My link doesnt seem to bring anything up, not sure what is wrong with it. Rang one of hte centres that do medicals and gave them my TRN and they said they could access my details on the system, so hopefully it will be ok. Going to book medical in a few weeks time. Hope we are all in oz soon!!

Any May 189'ers visas progressed yet?
