Kev Rad Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I was just wondering if anyone has applied for WA S/S recently. I applied for a 190 S/S mid September as an Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Engineer, I know they say 30 days but I can't help that nervous anticipation of waiting for an answer. If you do get the invite what are the processing times under the new system?? How long has anyone else waited for replies? :unsure: Any info would be great.

bennyblueboy Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Hi kev, we recieved SS from WA a couple of days ago.It states 30 working days on their web site which is six weeks! we waited 35 working days,just under seven weeks . i phoned them after 30 days for an update and they said 6-7 weeks is about the norm.But on the plus side i got my invite the next day.Spoke to my agent and he said processing times for the application are about 6-8 weeks subject to police checks and medicals so not too bad really. good luck mate,hopefully yours will be a bit quicker.

d4ddyc00l Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Applied on 27th Sept and expecting 6-7 weeks wait. Just making sure all my other documents are ready for when we get it through so I'm ready for my visa application. Going to send off for police checks in a couple of weeks.

Kev Rad Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 Cheers Benny for the info. Good to know that they are moving...albeit at their own pace. Good luck with the rest of your application. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Rad Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 When you send off for the police checks, how do you actually go about that. It is something I have not looked at yet. Have you got to go to your local police station or can you apply online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d4ddyc00l Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 You can download the application form online - seems easy enough I think (hope!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Rad Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 All good. Answered my own question! Pretty easy to do really. Just in case any one else needs it here is the link to the application form: http://www.acro.police.uk/police_certificates.aspx I should have looked before asking. Doh!

mandjay Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Hi Kev We applied for WA SS on the 14th September, received a grant on 11th October and an EOI invite on the 12th October. We also submitted our 190 visa yesterday. Our agent said that things were moving quicker than stated. We have already done our PCCs, but advised to wait until we have a CO before booking medicals.
