mikepat Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 As far i know , if a person has high risk country passport , it normally takes longer than the low-risk country such as UK, NZ, US, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tabbo Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Congrats... when did the asked for medical??? were there any changes on the status online during application process??/ Hi mikepat, My agent told me to do the medical after a couple of months of waiting (he just said that you may as well do it to get it out of the way!) There was no change in the online status - it just said 'in progress'. (which isn't very helpful!!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tabbo Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Thanks - That was low risk country of residence . My lawyer send me an email about this that low risk application are processed faster. Yeah, that's the theory... However, reading this forum over the last few months has taught me that there's no real rhyme or reason to the order in which the visas are processed!...

HayleyUK9 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Hi Bonza - congrats on your grant that's so quick! I only lodged my nomination and application yesterday. In your timeline you say that your employer lodged their BAS statement. BAS wasn't listed in the checklists as needing to be lodged. Do you think I should lodge it anyway? If so how many statements did your employer lodge? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HayleyUK9 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Another question...can't you all tell I'm new hehe. Only lodged yesterday and I've just been online to submit some further documents and it gave me access to the "organise your medical examination link". So i've printed the forms. My question is - should I go ahead and book my medicals in now and submit then or should I wait for the CO to ask for them? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
