Congrats C2A,

what a lovely X'mas gift!

when did you say you submitted your application? How long did it take?

When do you leave for Darwin?

congrats again...

Thanks dv4. My status is still on application received, since over 3 weeks - drives me nuts.

 

Canada2Australia and TimTam - any updates on your side?

It took all of a month for my application to be approved, from the time of complete submission. Perhaps it was because my application period straddled the time the website and medical exam changes came in. I was just praying that my approval would come before mid-December as I was told(rumour) that processing really slowed down from then until early Jan. (I know this doesn't help at all...but that's the info that I was given)

What were the new changes to the health questionnaire/medical exam?

Wishing everyone luck with their applications...hopefully there's good news in your Christmas stockings!

Hi jmo,

I think it changed to "processing" within a week but then stayed that way for almost a month, until it got finalised!

good luck!

dv4, do you remember when the status on your immi account changed from application received to being processed?

just thought I'd update everyone...

457 lodged online on 30/10/2015, offshore

Approval received 27/11/15, Brisbane Office

was told by employer that turnaround time for previous applications was about 2 weeks. Not sure why mine took almost 4 weeks. Had the only single request for information such as passport, marriage, birth certs and health insurance cert. perhaps it's the end of the year...everyone's in a holiday mood?

good luck to everyone else waiting!

Anyone with any updates? Things seem to have slowed down quite a bit...
