Guest The Davidsons Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 G Day all. Not been on for a while as family stuff took over but joy oh joy! Our GP called today with the tracking number for the medicals and when we got home from work the Police reports had landed the same day! We were granted our Skilled visa subject to medicals and clean police reports, so we are on our way. Now heres hoping they arrive quickly. It appears the waiting time from arrival of meds to visa granted is two months. Does this appear correct? I cant wait to get my house on the market!
Guest Gollywobbler Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Hi there The LCU are taking about 4-6 weeks to process some of the PR meds at the minute, though it looks to be a bit quicker than that with the new sc 175 visa. If you know the date that the meds were delivered to the LCU (the courier will know this) you can sometimes get help from the LCU as to progress. Please see here: Local Clearance Unit Health Processing Centre You can also e-mail or ring the Australian High Commissin in London to check progress. Please see here: Visas and migration - Australian High Commission What happens is that when the meds reach the LCU, somebody in the Mil Room stamps them with the date received on them. I think (but am not sure) that they are then stashed in piles according to which visa is being sought. The ICSE Databas (DIAC's Pride & Joy) has o record of meds received until they are actually processed. Don't expect answers to e-mails or help on the phone util the meds have had a reasonable period in which to get on to the radar known as the database. Having said that, a lady on here was tearing her hair out earlier this week. Eventually she could not stand the suspense any longer and rang the AHC today, asking whether their meds had been cleared yet? She was told, "Your visas were granted yesterday, Ma'am." Cheers Gill
