  1. Morning guys. Thank you for updating my timeline on that helpful magic spreadsheet. I just had a look, someone must put 30/05/0209 instead of 2019 by mistake, and it says that I waited minus 660820 days. Can anyone update it please? I don't want to mess up the statistical data.
  2. Hi Kelly. Are you from China? None of those names you mentioned seems to be Chinese name, and I don’t think you can get police certificates for those names from China.
  3. Hey guys! Good news from our side. Finally we got our visa finalized. Just checked immi account, I saw it's shown as Granted. I am not so excited as I thought I would be when I saw the status finally being changed to Finalized. It was a long way. I migrated to NZ and lived there for 2 years to fulfill the requirement to a NZ permanent resident visa before moving to Canada, where I lived for 11 months. Then I continued with moving to Australia when I secured a job and got a 457 visa. However, Australian immigration policy changed immediately after I moved here, so I decided to apply for 186 visa under DE stream. I think I have to eventually give up my Canadian permanent residency as I won't be able to fulfill the requirement of Australian and Canadian residency at the same time. But the good side is that I do like living in Australia. My full timeline is: ENS 186 Visa and Nomination applied: 3 Sep 2018 Nomination approved: 3rd April, same day requested for NZ and Canadian police certificates and proof of relationship the same day, status changed to initial assessment. Documents uploaded: 16 April, status immediately changed to further assessment. Visa approved: 30 May 2019
  4. Hi Toto Thank you for sharing so much information. May I ask if you were requested for new NZ police certificates? They are only valid for 6 months, so I suppose that yours were expired during the processing. Do you still remember when was the last time that you updated your NZ police certificates on your application?
  5. Hey guys. Today I didn’t answer a phone call from unknown number (caller ID was blocked), cause I thought it might be a scam. But after that I realised it could be from a CO as well. If it was from a CO and I didn’t answer it, will he call me again?
  6. It’s bad. It has become even longer. I’ve been waiting for 50 days now after my nomination approval. This waiting is killing me.
  7. Just checked. It’s still showing the old processing time on my immi account. I thought it would be updated on immi account first, usually a couple of days prior to being updated on the website.
  8. Good morning. Was your application in further assessment status since November last year, and only AFP was requested at that time? Do you know if and when your nomination was approved?
  9. I’m still waiting, about 50 days now. When and from which state did your friend apply? I see your signature. So you have been requested for only NZ police certificate with MOJ form, nothing else, and you have provided them in March. But you are still waiting, aren’t you? 97 days waiting would be too terrible...
  10. OK. I thought they would always ask for something before changing to further assessment, otherwise it would be from received directly to finalised.
  11. Hi Kashif. I just noticed your signature. How did your application go to further assessment with no document requested? Was it just all of a sudden changed from received to further assessment?
  12. The global visa processing time hasn’t been changed this month, which used to be updated on 20th each month, has it? I’m still seeing the same estimated time.
  13. Congratulations! Was your nomination approved today as well just before the grant of visa? And which state did you apply from?
  14. Thank you for the information. Yes, it helps. I was assuming that the application goes into a queue after the request for new documents, and it will be picked up again after some time. So you case that a different CO finalised your application supports my assumption. I know that applications normally get finalised after 30-40 days after the request, with some exceptions that were finalised either within 1-2 days or more than couple of months, according to the forum posts. Hopefully they are still on track with the increased amount of pending visa applications due to the recent trend of fast nomination approvals.
  15. Ah, I see. Thanks for sharing. I see your nomination was approved on 13th March and your visa was approved 9 weeks after that on 14th May. Were there any documents requested for your visa application after nomination approval?
  16. I’m feeling that nowadays nominations are generally approved extremely fast (eg. in 3 days), however more people are waiting for their visa after nomination approval for a longer period of time. Do you guys see the same? What do you think?
  17. How did you know the time so precisely? Can I know in which state your application was processed?
  18. Hi everyone. I’m thinking what time the department normally updates the applications (eg. approve or request additional information). I saw many people said they got their applications approved around 10am. I know some people check their immi account 10 times a day, but we can save our time and energy if we know what time to check.
  19. Nope, I applied my NZ police certificates myself, which I had to. You must apply for a full record, which you have to apply yourself. You can only get a clean state certificate if you request through third party. Regarding the MOJ consent form, you can read the below link on DoHA website: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/contact-us/offices-and-locations/list?locationid=842#infoSummaryHtml I quote the following for you: "If you receive only one letter from the NZ Ministry of Justice, indicating 'no convictions' you will need to supply this letter and your consent for the Department to seek confirmation from the NZ Ministry of Justice in relation to the number of letters issued. Your consent must include the following information: You Full Name; Date of Birth; Gender; Address; email; contact number; your MOJ reference number and the following declaration: I hereby consent to the disclosure, by the Ministry of Justice New Zealand information to the Australian Department of Home Affairs that is restricted to whether I was issued more than one letter in response to my application for a Criminal Records Check. I understand that the response from the Ministry of Justice will be a Yes/No response only. The disclosure of this information to the Australian Department of Home Affairs is to be used for visa and citizenship purposes only. The declaration must be signed and dated."
  20. I applied via MA. What about you? I think you’re likely to be asked for the MOJ consent form by CO if you haven’t supplied one. Unless they changed the procedure recently.
  21. Me too. I hold NZ PR as well. You have submitted a MOJ consent form with your NZ police certificate, right? That’s to give consent to DoHA to verify your NZ police certificate with MOJ.
  22. I’ve been waiting for 45 days now since nomination approved and documents requested. Does anyone have experience on how long it takes DoHA to verify NZ police certificates with MOJ?
