Good to see visas still being granted in under 10 months. Hopefully London continue this and speed things up a bit more.

Congratulations. I also have LC as case officer. That's me 5 months since I lodged my PMV 300 hopefully it stays around the 9 month mark.

I arrived in June last year and lodged PMV 300 in November and expected it to be granted around April going by the Australian immigration website. I'm on a one year holiday visa and had to leave the country every 3 months as well.

Ive no idea mate, but after their huge increases in visa prices youd expect them to employ more staff and honour what they advertise on the government site.

It would be not so bad if there were a month or so out from what they advertise on the site but it looks like a minimum of 5 months and by then it could be a bit more. I'm already in Australia living with my partner and I'm on a holiday visa, the quicker I get my visa then I can work and pay tax but unless I get an extension on my holiday visa in May it looks like I'm going back to cold wet scotland until the PMV gets granted.

Does anyone know why London embassy changed there grant times to 10-14 months and the Australian immigration website which was updated 27/02/2015 still has low risk at 5 months ? Very annoying and frustrating being so far out with there times. Good to see there onto June grants now, hopefully they don't slow down to much
