You should apply both nomination and visa togather. Its helps getting both approved at the same time.

Heard from people saying that they can approve it the next day and in some cases they can even take a month. But make sure that you have already uploaded all the documents needs for fast processing.

Go to http://www.immi.gov..au/Services/Pages/immiaccount.aspx Login immiaccount (if you have one or create a new ID) When you are in the website: import application: there you have to fill you TRN number and all other details. And from there you can see the progress of you application. Hope it helps!!

Yup there are some changes in the processing of the application's but they have to process the applications which were submitted before 22nd November. I aske this from Immigration as well some1 who applied there visa first, she said thats lucky for him and all the cases are different so cant say anything about this. And she also said that the processing time is 6months. I really dont know what is happning man, if you just think about it every single day then evry day seems so long. That much i know that someone's visa got approved from mid Oct. So thats why i am guessing that 1 more month for me as i applied on 14th Nov. Now its just a wait game and thats the hardest part.

I called immigration today just to check on my progress. They said its not even allocated ATM. And they also said that there is a delay in processing the applications. If they are processing the applications for the Oct now that means it will take 1 or 1.5 months to allocate and process the application for the Nov.

Hey mate, When you appli for your visa after every other application that means you are lodging a new application and it is going to take normal processing time. And that is 6months at this time as i just called the immigration about my application and they just said, that my file is not even allocated at the moment. Which means i think another month for me at i applied in mid November.

Congratulations!! What is your profession??

What my MA told me that if you have applied both together then you can get your both nomination and visa approved on the same day or few days apart. Delaying on documents supplied will delay your visa process.

Hey Harry, Have you just got your 187 approved?? Can you please tell me about your processing center and occupation. thanks!

India is in high risk country.

Partner need to get 5band each in ielts or i think they have to pay alot of money.

yup sure i will keep you update and same goes for you.

You can only know about your processing center when you have been allocated a CA. So till the time you dont get your CA you wont be able to know about it.

Hey Riya I applied for my nomination and visa on 14th of November and still waiting. I think they are processing visa applications from late oct dates. i think 1-1.5months for both of us. Or maybe within this week for so. Its now a luck game as well i think.

Sorry that was my own thinking. That means this guy cant apply for his visa now. Sad for him and thank for correcting me

I think you should take some legal advice as well.

Hey mate, You can apply for your visa and Nomination, and give your ielts after it coz you wont need ielts for nomination and to get a case officer in your case will take atleast 3months otherwise your CA will ask for it and will give you more 28days to submit it, so should have it then otherwise it will be cancelled.

I am from high risk country.

Thanks a lot for your reply mate...i saw some1 got there visa approved on friday or somthing, who applied for there visa in mid Oct. Now i am just hoping that not many people have applied for there visa in the month of oct so that they can process my file. I am hopein another month for my result. So what is you time line??

There is one more factor in which they do process your application quicker then other people, if you are from low risk country they process your file within 3-4months altogether. And i think when you apply for your visa it would have gone in queue like all other application and it wont just break the queue just because your nomination is approved. If you would have applied your nomination and visa together. Then you would have got both at the same time coz as they are going to open your file then they would have checked your history and in that process they would have seen your visa application and processed that at the same time rather wasting another month on a file which is already ready to go. So right now your file is going to take the normal process time as others. Hope it helps.

When you check the processing time for the RSMS on IMMI website it does tell you that the processing time is 6months max. which is not included RCB and Nomination time. But usually what people do is apply RCB, nomination and Visa altogether, as it says that the RCB processing time is 8-10weeks and nominations usually get approved within 3-4months. So, RCB and Nomination processing times got merged in the processing time of actual Visa processing period, so altogether the time looks like 4.5moths for the whole process. But if you are going to apply all applications separate then the time frame would look like this: RCB: 5days, 10 days or even a months etc. Nomination: 1months or 2 months or 3 months ec. Then the final visa process which in most of the cases takes more then 3-5months. Altogether 6.5 or may be even 7-8months. So its better to apply all the applications together only if you know that you are going to get it 100%, otherwise you can lose all the money in a single blow. I lodged my Nomi and visa on 14 Nov. if i will hear anything before you then will surely tell you and same goes for you.

Hey!! I was having a chat with my MA yesterday and i asked him like after nomination how long does it going to take for the visa approval, he said usually they can grant the nomination and visa on the same day if your A-Z documents are uploaded alright. Other wise visa approval time is on the website which is between 3-6months. Hope it helps.

Thats right!!

You can only do you medical through my health declaration before applying your visa coz if you apply for your medical after lodging your visa then it will take more time as it says on immigration website. And when your MA will fill the application form for you then the last question in it is, Have you done medical in past 12 months, there you can fill the HAP ID which you have already got from My health declaration, otherwise haveing two hao ids will take much more longer.

Hey mate, In my opinion its better to submit all your documents before hand and medical done as well, as later on you have to do it then why not now. It saves some time as well in the process of asking additional documents. Upload all the forms and documents according to decision ready checklist. Hope it helps.
