+1 here. Nomination applied: ~8th May More info requested: end of May Visa application: 9th June More info sent back: ~20th June Not a word since...

Hey Tony, I'm afraid it doesn't work based on the processing time on the date of submission. When we submitted our application, the processing time was ~56 days. We're now 6 months in, with no answer yet... The waiting game is a nightmare...!

For sure! It’s frustrating as the processing times keep getting longer. As you get closer, they extend it again. Did you get asked to provide extra information? Or is your application still ‘received’?

Hey Shelley, Still no luck either? I’ve been waiting since May. Apparently ours is held up on the nomination approval, but no timescale...

Not a thing - we’re going a bit spare! How about you?

No idea around reasoning - all correspondence went through my sponsor. Timescale was approx 1 week.

No idea - they didn't give an ETA on when the checks would be wrapped up, or what the checks were. Guess it's just a waiting game...!

I'm in the same boat - been on the priority queue for ~1week now. I rang them up earlier as there had been no movement, and they said things were progressing with the application. Apparently the case officer is waiting on security checks coming back. My ImmiAccount only shows Application Received as the status, so it's interesting that there is actually stuff going on behind the scenes.

Yeah definitely - I'm from the UK and heading out as a Software Engineer. How about yourself?

Hey Mhson, Our timelines are pretty much the same. Nomination application ~9th May, more information requested end of May and submitted back 2 weeks after. The 457 visa application has just stuck at “Received” since it was submitted. Hope there isn’t too much more of a wait...! Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

Hey Jamie! Did you request the priority processing? Or does it have to be the employer?

Brilliant news! Congrats [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz
