briman Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 proof of Australian qualifications, strange request considering most of the qualifications were from the UK.

186applicant Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hi Guys So my nomination was finally approved on the 28/8/15, I completed my Medicals on 3/9/15 and was advised by my agent that I should be looking at around a week for approval of my visa. Nearly a month has passed now with no news...even he has commented that this is "very strange" and has emailed them to pursue the matter but says he won't again until after 6 months from my application (Nov). Everyone I know has had their visa approved within 1 - 2 weeks of taking their Medicals and I am really starting to wonder what is going on. Am I panicking unnecessarily? Could there be a problem with my results (34 and fit / healthy)? What potentially could be holding this up?! I've been waiting a very long time for this visa and have at many points thought it may never happen...hence my worry! Any advice much appreciated!

Bret Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 My MA lodged my Visa application on 24th June after I got the nomination granted, I wonder if I can get some priority compare to those who lodged Nomination and Visa at same time?

AusExpat Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Guys, please stop putting filters in the spreadsheet. If you need specific data apply filters and then disable them, otherwise the users won't be able to see the whole list. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely Singh Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hi Lovely Singh, did your MA told you these dates? Not really! In fact I haven't even spoken to my MA since I have lodged my visa. I have been following this website and a couple of others ,every now and then! And what I figured out is that in general it takes about four and half to six months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
