Wen66 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Police Checks done and Uploaded. Medicals done today. Was told by medical centre that it would take 7 days to finalise the results and send to IMMI. The waiting game continues....:twitcy: Lets hope we get a Visa grant shortly after, and not having to wait until July. Good luck, hope good news follows soon:-) We have our meds on the 15th. (earliest date we could get for family of 4, don't mind really as it coincides with school hols and work commitments) Doing Police checks at the mo. Keep us posted:biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe with everything uploaded, and the hold up, it will make the decision quicker come July. Long time to wait but.....hoping it's good news for all:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weaz Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Hi All, I want to let you know that I have also received the famous "delay email" saying there are serious delays due to planning levels being reached for this program year. I do not get an indication of when the visa will be finalized. I guess there is not much else to do than to be patient, again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting is hard enough, but to have the waiting time extended is frustrating. Seems to be folk that have applied for State Sponsprship for SA and WA that are receiving the email. Has anybody out there applying for Victoria State Sponsorship received the dreaded "delay email"??? Cheers Eddie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddieb7 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 We had the delay email and we are going to Victoria Not good news. I've been build my hopes up that we would hear soon, and that it was mainly SA and WA that have been receiving the email. We haven't received any email yet, so still keeping fingers crossed that there may be some positive movement soon What occupation have you got sponsorship for?

eddieb7 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Sent an email to my CO to double check that Health Checks have been received. I was hoping they would give an indication of how much longer we would have to wait, but the reply email was short and sweet. They only confirmed that all medicals had been cleared, but no mention of time-scales or any delays to the granting of a visa. Not sure if this is good news or not. Just need to keep waiting and see what happens. :unsure: Fingers and toes crossed we hear something soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how some COs are telling others that it will now likely be July and others dont mention timeframes. Mine just said "as soon as possible". Maybe they say this on the off-chance that visa places become available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
