Got my visas granted today - together w my de facto partner! Nomination and Visa application on 15 Sept 2016. Health assessments submitted on 22 Sept 2016. Visa granted on 3 November 2016. From a LR Country. That's 7 weeks on the dot; no further information was asked at all. So shocked and surprised! Was expecting the department to ask for further information esp regarding my da facto relationship, but none was asked! Goodluck everyone!

What do you mean by allocation time? my MA did mention 6-8 weeks too, but i thought that's for the approval, meaning the whole process?

Yeah,i'm on my 7 week mark (lodged on 15 Sept) and still no news at all ):

i am heading to Sydney. i am still in my home country, and my MA who is based in Sydney applied it on my behalf. So i'm not too sure if its considered an onshore or an offshore application.

ive had a friend who was granted a visa in about a week too! But apparently, the employers would have to pay a little extra for priority processing.

hey me too! my MA lodged the application on 15 Sept and no news till now ): But my MA did tell me that it'll take 6-8 weeks. its been such a long wait!
