457 visa granted today!! Nomination and Application Lodged 28th Jan Visa Granted 14th March

Still waiting also. It's the 6 week mark today since nomination and application lodged.

Any guidance?

What information does the SAR give vs. the PCC?

All submitted at the same time.

Same here. Submitted at the same time, same cicumstances...so just waiting for the e-mail. Very surprised at how quick TL1's came back - that is great news considering the backlog of applications and shortage of personnel. Just checking...did you request priority processing?

My company has told me that visa applications lodged w/c 21st December were being granted w/c 8th Feb, so looking about 7 weeks.

dannysavagelfc...are you sure you applied for a 457 visa?

@dannysavagelfc...are you sure thats for the 457 Visa? @TL1 and Muzz...I heard from my company last week (w/c 8th February 2016) that they were seeing 457 visas granted that were lodged on w/c 21st December 2015. So about 7 weeks currently. I'm also meant to be starting work early April, so hoping it comes through in time.

Hi All, New poster, but not new to the forum Keen to see how people are getting on with 457 nomination and visa approval times. Seems to be a bit of variation at the moment given the backlog. Nomination and Visa application submitted by MA on 28th Jan - hoping for a quick turnaround.
