I saw on the Facebook.

Guys .. just write your experience so far about 187.
Since Christmas the group chat is very slow.
Everyone reads but hardly writes.
Remember your experience, your journey can be motivation for others.. even can be helpful for others.

I guess the immi department will start functional fully from monday only

If you have a contract with a start date of your job etc, does it speed up the processing time?

Good news to share,
Residency granted yesterday. 
March 2018, Childcare room leader. No documents asked. 
Hopefully you all have your visas soon.
thank you

Guys any idea when the department will resume working after holidays ?

Submitted requested docs on 28th of December and on the same day status changed from initial assessment to further assessment.how do I know if  CO is  looking at my file or it is still in the Que?

Immi sent email to agent on 28 dec 
and my agent sent me today. 
Visa grant date is 28 dec

Happy New Year 2019 my Tapatalk family.
I would like to wish you all success and the golden email very soon.
All the best

Come on guys speak something.
This group is dead from 3 days.

Ok lets all share your timeline.

RCB APPLY DATE
NOMINATIONS APPLY DATE
VISA APPLY DATE

SPREAD POSITIVITY

As we know, each month DIBP publishes the global visa and citizenship processing times for the previous calendar month. It is important to understand what is the significance of that statistics.

So, what do you know from the global visa and citizenship processing times?

You know what is the maximum time taken for the quickest 75% and 90% grants among all the grants issued during that calendar month.

It is not the average time, it is the worst of the best 75% and 90%, respectively.

It does not necessarily have any relation to the average processing time. For example, hypothetically, if in July, total 100 grants were granted, out of those fastest 74 grants took 3 months, and 75th grant took 11 months, this statistics will show 11 months for the 75% grants.

It has nothing to do with your application date. It just gives you an idea about the last months' grants, some of which might be lodged a month earlier (e.g. processing time 1 month) and some might be a year old (e.g. processing time is 12 months or more). So, a question like "whether my application is affected by this processing time because I lodged X months ago" does not make any sense.

Why is group soo quite today..
Hangover of Christmas or
Stress of 187 ?

Hopefully department will start working from tommorow as per their normal hours.

Merry Christmas guys,

Spoke with my MA they said department only close on public holiday 25,26 and 1 so guys keep checking your email you might get the golden mails.

Only tomorrow is left before holidays.
Those who were hoping to get result soon specially those who have been allotted a case officer have to wait for atleast 15 days .
All the best guys. Now everyone will get PR in 2019.

Guys 2 more days left for the department to go on holidays.
Longest pause of year about to start.

Hey guys 
does anyone know how long immigration office closes over Christmas and new year 
 
Thanks

if your case officer starting to look at your application, the status should be changed from "received" to "initial assessment" OR "further assessment". I guess your application has not allocated to the case officer yet? but also that doesnt make sense because your allocated case officer approve your nomination... 

He is only the one who will help us settle.

Hi guys,I received my golden mail today.
from March 2017, my life been fluctuated a lot due to this Visa-at first time the MA said it just need 8-10 months. but now is around 21 months now.sometimes I was too nervous and couldn't fall in sleep,  cause I was afraid of lost everything I got.My partner and me are from different country, if I fail to get this Visa, we can't be together anymore, and I spent 5 years in Australia, if I go back to my country that means it's hard to get a new life in this age.
anyway, I'm  so happy and I almost cry when I got the golden mail.
my time line:
March 2017 RCB applied.
May 2017 RCB approved.nomination and VISA applied.
1st Nov 2018 nomination approved. AFP,medical test, birth certificate etc, required.
26th NOV  Documents updated.
7th Nov VISA granted. got the email today.
I want you guys know that how much encourages and faith you gave me. it helps me a lot and  I hope everyone in here can get the thing you want.
Thank you and best wishes!
