Barney500 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hey guys, should time frame be affected by which office or situation in Australia you apply from? or do 186s all go through central point anyhow. (I applied from Perth WA). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessiejam Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hey Barney, there are 3 processing offices, wa vic and nsw. Some offices are a bit quicker, I think vic was having some delays recently, but it probably won't make much of a difference. 12-14 weeks seems to be the average. There is a central processing centre in nsw, but each application goes to a regional office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kmchu Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 It has been 16 weeks since my lodgement...over the average. still no any news! I am just not satisfied with the information transparency of the whole process! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessiejam Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hey kmchu, I am sorry this process is taking so long for you it's not much comfort but you are still week within the DIBP guideline of 5-6 months. Recently sikofbrit and Fiji had extended waits compared to others who had applied at the same time, but they did get their visas in the end. It can't be much longer now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neohope Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Congratulations samsen... Did you receive any notification when CO assigned or just from "In Progress" to "Granted"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I'm wondering about the same thing as well.. By the way, anyone knows if it is a must to submit supporting evidence marked as "recommended" in ur immiaccount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsen Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Congratulations samsen... Did you receive any notification when CO assigned or just from "In Progress" to "Granted"? Thanks Neohope, Megan, Barney500, Kmchu.... on the Visa it went straight from "In Prgoress" to "Granted" .....no CO assigned notification. On the nomination the MA received a query from CO on Sep 22nd, my employer responded on 23rd and Nomination approved on Sep 24th. Query was on Leave entitlement policy.

Barney500 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I'm wondering about the same thing as well.. By the way, anyone knows if it is a must to submit supporting evidence marked as "recommended" in ur immiaccount? Hi Megan, when I spoke to Immigration they advised me not all "recommended" were required, and that I should look through the document check list for my visa type (186), and ensure all those documents were uploaded, I have completed everthing on the checklist and uploaded, form 80, Medicals, PC etc. Have others done similar?

Jessiejam Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 We put everything in, form 80, pcc and meds. Although, we waited for the referral for the meds, only took about a week to come through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kseafield Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hey guys, so I logged into my immiacount about 5 minutes ago for the 100000th time and saw "granted" where processing used to be, about two minutes later I received my golden email from my CO in Parramatta. My time line is as follows: Nomination lodged, 27/02/2014 Nomination granted, 14/04/2014 186 Visa lodged, 24/06/2014 (Melbourne) Loaded all docs except medicals, 26/06/2014 Medicals done, with high blood pressure on the day, 29/08/2014 186 Visa granted, 25/09/2014 (Parramatta) High risk country Never heard anything from my CO until now. Hell yeah, time to pop the champers. Good-luck to all you guys still waiting. You next jessiejam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
