Thanks so much for your answer! I get there are delays with Covid, but we havent had to resubmit any info so it just seems ridiculous. I had a scan through a few pages back, but only seemed to find people who were getting visas issued a lot faster. Guess I will hang out here any see how everyone goes!? Has anyone complained to the ombudsman at all and had any success?

Hi all, Hope I am writing this in the right place as I have just found this forum. We are onshore applicants in Perth with a family application under my partners role as a Diesel Mechanic, and we have only just received our Employer Nomination Approval yesterday, 17 months after we submitted the application (through a visa agent), and 15 months after we completed our medicals. This seems unusual to me that the first part of the application took so long. Does this sound right to anyone else? I have queried this with the visa agent and am awaiting a response. Just wondering if anyone has put through a complaint with the ombudsman at all? Its not something I want to do, but this seems to be an exceptionally long time, Thank you! 186 ENS, onshore Applied on: May 2020 Occupation: Diesel Mechanic Medical Complete: Cleared July 2020 No of Applicants: 4 Nomination Grant: yesterday 19Oct21 (17 months after application)
