peterxyz Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Hi everyone.! I am new to this thread but share the same anxiety as everyone else. Lodged on June 15th (without MA) and waiting...... Hope everything is fine on the other end.I have a doubt though: I got my meds done on June27th but the progress tab on immiaccount still says recommended. I called the panel docs to check and they said that they had uploaded all the results long back. Dont know if the immigration website doesn't update about health examinations. I had uploaded PCC after that which have been received as per the progress tab there. Wonder what's going on. Hi I see the same thing. Under "Persona 1" I have a button which says "Get Health Details". When I click on this, some text which says "Health requirement – health clearance provided – no action required All health examinations required for the specified visa subclass have been finalised. Processing of this person's visa application can now continue. This will not occur until a case officer investigates the case in line with published processing times for the visa that has been applied for. Do not contact the department about health examinations in the meantime." pops up under each applicant. Hope this helps Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Peter pointed out in the post above if you click the get health details button underneath each applicant then you'll see if it has been updated with your medical clearance.

vats Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Was reading through experiences of other people on the spreadsheet. I must say it is quiet an efficient way of keeping a track on the progress on everyone's application. Someone mentioned verification from employers. Do they verify from employers for whom we have not claimed points too? One of the company where I worked no longer exists, so I did not claim points for my experience there to keep myself safe. Hoping it should be ok. Do they call current employers as well.? It will become a 'News' in my office if they do.. :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgies2Oz Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Thank you captain. Is this just a spreadsheet for those that have had a CO assigned? We aren't on there and hoping it's just because there's no CO assigned. Thank you. X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brokenlizard Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hey, so last week I went for my bupa medical in perth. I've applied for my 189 thru an agent but he's being very vague with answers. How long will it take for my visa to be approved from here? Any help would be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long will it take for my visa to be approved from here? Any help would be good It normally takes around 3 months from the date you've paid visa fees and uploaded all the documents along with the medicals receipt(documents usually include Police Clearing Certificate and Form 80 among other documents).

Kymmbo Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hi everyone, I lodged my 189 application on 21st June, have finished uploading all docs, police certificates received and had my medical last week so hopefully it's just a waiting game now! Wee question - what is the deal with 'form 80'? Should I fill this in and upload it too or wait and see if it's requested by a CO? Doing this all myself so don't wanna miss anything out! Congrats to those who have got their result and fingers crossed for the rest of us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on where you've lived, traveled and worked, it can take a while to track down all of the information. I've uploaded mine while waiting on the theory that I don't want to add a couple of weeks delay if they do ask for it. If you haven't lived/worked in a lot of places, then its relatively quick. If you have, then all the more reason to be prepared, even if you don't submit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyba Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Can anyone give me an idea of how long they are waiting for a CO? My agent said it's usually between 8 and 9 weeks Our agent submitted our EOI yesterday and I've only got 60 points so not expecting an invite this round which isn't a tragedy as we aren't planning on going until September October next year so we're hoping to time the Medicals and police checks so we won't have to do a visa run.

Your agent is not far off. But it all depends on your application, some don't get a CO and just get a grant. Unfortunately there's no real set timeframe, but if you work on 8-9 weeks that's a good starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarahb1986 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Morning All, Anymore updates from anyone? We lodged on the 24th June, and have our medicals booked for the 8th August! Still awaiting a CO to be assigned, we were told 6-8 weeks for that to be picked up. 5 weeks in and counting! Dying to book flights etc, we are aiming to be out in Melbourne for the beginning of November :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cafp06 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I phoned the general 1300 number and they said my CO was assigned a calendar month after I submitted my application however I have not been notified as they did an initial check and didn't require anything from me. I was approaching three months in the same week, but they said the three months starts from the date of CO allocation. Thereby meaning 4 months from date of submission. They said you will only be notified if the case officer needs something from you. I did find that a bit hard to believe as the website states that you will be notified of CO allocation within two weeks. They said that's not always the case and it's just a matter of waiting.

Guest LandL Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 That must be so frustrating!! I have seen other people say that CO will only contact you if they need something. Has you application status changed on you immi account to reflect that it has been assigned to someone? It amazes me that they still need 3 months even though they say they have everything!! I did see from your signature that you did your medicals after your EOI but before your application .. I remember reading on the website that doing that can sometimes slow your application down and it is best to do it before you submit your EOI or after you apply .. i am only taking a wild guess but maybe thats why they are being so slow?! Good luck i hope your grant comes through soon!! !

vats Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) Hey all, Can't say its a golden email but yeah I received the one grand email today morning. Mine was a direct grant.

You lodged on 15th June and got a grant on 3rd August which is less than 2 months despite the fact that you uploaded the PCC only a few weeks back. By this logic I can hope to get a Visa by 30th Sept!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
