Alanlisa Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 We applied 8th July but not heard anything yet [emoji30] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indianinoz Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) just want to share. an applicant who lodged on 6 July got direct grant last 21 August... so i guess, they're starting July applications now... good luck! When was he/she invited? From my observation no one has got a grant so far within 60 days of invitation so I assume that this guy was invited in June or earlier. Or was he/she invited on 6th July's invitation round itself? Edited August 24, 2015 by CaptainC Removed external website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanlisa Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 There's been 3 who lodged on 06/07/2015 who have received direct grants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mageea3 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Hey guys, just thought I'd share the great news that I received my grant this morning!

supercow Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Can anyone here tell me, when I can expect a verdict on my application? I've submitted (well, my agent has), my 190 application on the 16th June. I have been requested my medicals / form 80 and police clearance a while later, which in turn then was submitted to them on the 6th August. From when should I start to count the "3 month" wait? Should it be from June, or August? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you mind telling me which country ur in as all the grants from the 6th have all been china and the philippines , I wondered if they were done in country order [emoji16] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indianinoz Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Is the processing time for 189 and 190 visas similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the answer for you is August...but it shouldn't take that long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainC Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Is the processing time for 189 and 190 visas similar? It's in the same priority processing group so they are processed in similar timeframes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the answer for you is August...but it shouldn't take that long Drats, thanks for confirming @CaptainC How do you mean it shouldn't take that long (3 months) - have you seen them go quicker than that of late. I odn;t think my application is particularly complicated (though I did go via the RPL route for my skills assessment, and I'm a South African living in the UK for more than 10 years... not sure if that makes it any more complicated) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I odn;t think my application is particularly complicated (though I did go via the RPL route for my skills assessment, and I'm a South African living in the UK for more than 10 years... not sure if that makes it any more complicated) I wouldn't have thought that it would make much difference at all, so I wouldn't worry about it as long as you application is complete and correct. The processing standards are more related to the performance of the department rather than useful information for an applicant. If an application is processed within the times they publish then the processing team gets a gold star, if it's longer, then they get flogged! Many....actually most....applications get processed and finalised a lot quicker than the processing standards. Mine for example took 3 months to the day from lodgement. I was contacted for more information after about 2 months and received the grant a month after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
