derbygirl Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Hoping to put my application in this week after finally jumping over the hurdles of AQF 111 and TRA. I know there is a backlog and applications a slow but just wondered if anyone has any insight on how long likely to be? I'd prefer of course to go on the 190 but the dreaded ielts is standing in our way and so it looks like 489 FS is our only option. We have to get ITA before mid November as we lose 5 points after this date due to age. Just wondered what the likelihood is of this - are we being unrealistic to think we'll get the invite by then?

dewi Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 489 FS is family spknsored I assume? I think the number of invitation issued for family spons is only 30 every month. Better to try to apply for state sponsorship if you can..... it's an immediate invite when the state agrres to sponsor you (in my case at least) The processing time normally is 3- 4 mth. But due to the quota, it's around 6 month nowadays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
