Were both onshore. He was 10 weeks from application to grant, mine 8.5 weeks

MikeyD... did you update your visa information in the excel tracker sheet??

Mine got updated automatically!! How is that possible? I was the one who entered my information, but someone updated my visa grant date there!! I'm confused.

Your info is also updated, so i wanted to know if you were the one who updated it or ...!!!

Thanks mate.

:arghh:

I just got a direct grant. Didn't expect it quite so soon. Perfect timing as work is slow in queensland.

Applied 17th August

WOW!! received a direct grant yesterday.

Applied onshore and front loaded all docs.. except form 80.

Applied on 17th august.

direct grant on 16 october.

Guys, from my experience-- its always good to make ur application decision ready by frontloading the necessary docs (ofcourse some of us cant because of individual case scenarios), but if ur case is not too complicated go ahead and upload. This is my personal opinion!!

Good luck to all of u waiting.. and congratulations to those who got their visas.

I did not use an agent!!

all the best to everyone.

Congratulations,does direct grant mean that u did not hear from case officer at all? I mean did u get any notification mail saying u have been assigned a case officer? Or just one direct mail saying ur visa has been granted?

Hi!

I applied for a 189 and frontloaded docs on 11th August.

Did anyone else include defacto partners on their application?

 

I see someone from 28th July got their visa this week - we're next!!
