Great news Ellie! My partner just got his! 8 months 26 days! He got a 309 even though we have lived together for 3.5 years and have been in a relationship for 4.5 years (only living apart for the last 6 months due to this visa wait) but we can't complain as we will get to see each other in one weeks' time. Flight booked: Heathrow to Melbourne one way!! Good luck to everyone else waiting for their visa or their partner's visa. I certainly empathise with everyone waiting! Applied 309/100 defacto: 12th February 2014| CO assigned: 15th March| Medical complete: 27th May| Police check complete: 10th June| 309 visa granted 7th November 2014!

I am new to this but my partner applied for his visa on the 12th Feb 2014, CO assigned 15th March, Medical done 27th May, police check on June 10th and he is still waiting. Is anyone else still waiting from the 12th Feb? It is killing us! He has already missed out on one job opportunity as the visa has taken to long! Emailed the CO a few weeks back and got a reponse from a different guy called Luis saying our CO was away. Also does anyone know if we have been together for 4 years, will my partner automatically get a 100 visa? I haven't seen him for 6 months and it is driving us mad all this waiting!!
