Still nothing here yet. Applied 5th Feb. Still no CO.

Any news from anyone? I'm still waiting! Next week will be 3 months since submitting my application. Guess I'm one of the 25% who fall outside of the 75% service agreement.

No news at all. Still no contact from CO and no delay email either. We lodged 5th feb so still have 2 weeks til we hit 3 month mark.

best of luck!

So the three of us in the same boat, it seems! I didn't receive the delay mail, Charlie, so I'm hoping to hear back WAY before June. Hoping we all do! I also front loaded my docs. I mailed them about two weeks ago and they said I'd hear back in due course. I don't know why a 190 visa would take longer than a 189 lodged at the same time. It should be quicker, given that a state has assessed everything already and chosen to sponsor.

Hi Melbourne.

Did you get allocated a CO or did you just decide to email a general email address?

We lodged 5th feb but ain't heard nothing yet. Whereas other people after us have been given COs. I am assuming they have been contacted by a CO because they required further info from them which is fair enough as we have uploaded everything and have a straight forward case. But it's frustrating that they have been allocated to a team and we have not as we would like a named contact so we can ask about the likelihood of a delay etc.

The wait is killing me and my new oz employers are wondering how long too!

Hi D

I am not a GP myself but no you wont need PSV again. I have just applied to AHPRA and had to do everything again inc getting documents certified etc. I don't know about GP college registration sorry.

Best wishes

Thanks scouseman

does anyone know what priority group 3 and 4 means? How do u know what group you are in?

Hi Joachim

It is on the immi website. Priority 1 is for regional sponsored visas. 190 is priority 3 and 189 priority 4.

Good stuff buddy. Keep us posted about the progress.

CO's are into 'first two weeks of feb' applicants. Phew...

Hi Harryc

Where did you get your info from re your quote about COs being into first 2 weeks of feb? The immi website states for the 189 and 190 that if you applied in Jan you have been allocated to a team. But after Jan the it seems the processing is Indeed slowing down.

Hey guys this wait is killing me. I applied 4th feb. Any one from 190 stream had a February grant? The 189 stream seems to be progressing with some one from 7th and now 11th getting their visa!

Yes they seem to be up to the 30th jan for the 189. The 190 seems to not have been updated for ages and the last person to have a grant was 24th jan. I applied for a 190 feb 4 th so I'm hoping I'm soon!

Hi guys

Are there any doctors on here that have been through the AHPRA registration process recently?

I sent my application form in last week but wondering how long it takes. I know the website says 10 days for aus residents and 4-6 weeks for overseas drs but I was wondering if it really does take that long? I have a job waiting for me and they need me ASAP. I have been registered previously when I worked in aus in 2012 so hoping this may speed the process up.

It will be nice to hear other people's experiences.

Haha I know I think we have become spoilt seeing earlier applicants get their visa after 1 month! . Now 2 months waiting seems too long!

Hi I am also having g trouble accessing the tracker. I too check it dozens of times per day! I am in withdrawal haha

We are doing it ourselves. Didn't feel the need to pay an agent!

We sent our police checks 11 days ago so when they come back we are hoping we will possibly get a direct grant before a case officer is assigned as we have done everything. Hope it is soon as I have a job waiting for me!

Hi. We applied for 190 vic 5th feb. Still no CO! You got yours after

4 days wow. Keep us updated with your progress. We are applying from UK and have uploaded medicals. Still waiting for

UK police checks to arrive.

Hey guys.

Just wondering what people's experiences are for how long the 190 visa takes?

I know DIBP say 3 months.... anyone had it sooner?

Thanks

Claire

For those interested. ... we received a positive assessment yesterday. So process took 3 months. It only took 2 days once a case officer was allocated!

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone else is going through vetasses at the moment?

We have been waiting since the end of October. I know it takes 10-12 weeks but getting impatient as just want to apply for our visa.

My partner is a physicist and is getting his degree and experience assessed. We are in the UK and are hoping to apply for a 190 from Vic.

Cheers

Claire and Ant

What occupation have you applied for Olly8? You can check the invitation rounds by occupation code to see what the point cut-off was for issuing invitations.

Hi

My partner is shortly going to apply for a 190 vic ss visa. How can I check what the cut off was for his occupation? He has a phd and can be sponsored by vic for that.

Cheers
