Really Frustrated, Its been many months. loosing confidence

Yeah, same here. Lodged on 24 MAR 17 and last updated 22 SEP 17. Really much frustrating.

Hi All, Seems like all of the applicants of MAR/APR batch have been granted. No comments from last few days. Now a days grants seem very low in number as compared to last month.

Hi All,

I have a query i.e. my PCC was valid for 180 days and it has been expired on 21st SEP 17. But my visa application has not yet been finalized. Should I renew my PCC and upload it again? OR Should I contact my CO to raise this flag?

Thanks

Visa granted. 

190 general plumber.

Submitted 20th march.

Every thing uploaded by 14th April.

No further information required.

Granted 14th September.

Hi Simons, many congratulations on the grant. Finally wait is over.

You lodged on 20 MAR and I on 24 MAR. Means I also should hope to get soon. What was your GSM, Adelaid or Brisbane?

I have updated my newborn baby to DIBP for twice but still my application is not updated and off course his medical yet to be done. Application status is 'assessment in progress". Can anyone suggest how much time they will take to respond? 190 visa application submitted on 24 MAR 17. 

Yes, it seems very few grants today.

Hi All, Any grant today?

Hope MAR/APR applications will also get through soon. Just keep the fingers crossed.

Many congratulations and best wishes to all of those who got the grants.

Lodged 20th march, not bothered anymore. Totally put it on back burner. Wife has brought a horse I've joint a football team, going Vietnam and Bali in december/Jan. We not waiting for the visa any more. 

Simons, That's good. It is the only way to get out of stress, not to wait but doing other things.

We lodged on 20 March, every thing uploaded by 8 April. Still waiting.                Bored.

We lodged on 24 MAR, Still assessment in progress. aaah painful wait.

Hi guys,

• Lodged 190 visa with 60 points on 24 MAR 17
• Medical done on 5 APR 17
• PCC and form 80 and 1221 submitted
• CO contacted regarding functional English for my wife on 18 MAY 17 which we submitted her educational records on 8 JUN 17 to fulfill the requirement. Since then my application status is "assessment in progress" and "Last updated 8 JUN 17"
• We blessed with a new born baby on 6 JUL 17 which we updated as per their requirement i.e. submitted birth certificate, passport & form 1022

Still there is no response from their side. Application status is still "assessment in progress" and "Last updated on 8 JUN 17".

Can anyone comment on that when they will response? What is the usual processing timelines for the visa of this category? Anybody got the grant during this period of time?

Everyday check the status in immi account, and realize how the wait is painful.
