Melbourne maz Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Hi does anyone know how long the spouse visa is taking at the moment? Subclass 100- we have been together 15 years and married almost 13 so not anticipating any problems but we don't want to travel until march 16 I have done the forms but not medical or police checks yet. I don't want to do it too soon but timing is a worry any ideas and help appreciated x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
engaus Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 From the London embassy they are advising 10-14 months. I wouldn't bother doing the medical or the police check until asked by the CO. They only last 12 months. This is all if you are applying from London. Each embassy is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melbourne maz Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 Oh thanks I didn't realise I could do that I thought police checks had to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of embassies these days explicitly ask for people not to submit the police checks and medical exam until asked because they only last for a year and processing times are longer than this at the moment. So it would result in you having to complete the medical and police checks again because they expire before your grant.
