Reluctant to say this but maybe we should put "luck" as a general answer to who gets approval first... I do believe that occupation is a key factor which affects their priority... Got a bad feel as mine is quite general. Anyway, good luck to you and me and everyone on this Forum... Hi @Elliotkan, you never know - I had a good feeling and was riding the wave of optimism the first several months...until we went past 7 months and still nothing..and then 9, 10, 11 months and still nothing, ha ha. Now we're a few days from 365 and I'm a bit resigned and sad. I'd really like to know though what the maximum wait time is for a CO to be allocated - at least that much information would help us plan our lives better. Good luck to you - who knows, you might be one of the fortunate ones! Edited April 5, 2017 by Izzielizzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take is "LR + Transition + SOL Skill" applicants are more likely to fall within the 6 months approval timeline. It looks like a bus coming to pick up waiting passengers. No one knows number of seats in each sortie, time of pick up, next schedule of bus, or order of the queue which appears to get dis-oriented after each sortie and then the poor left out passengers look at each other's face trying to figure some logic behind why they are left out and someone got the ride! Waiting patiently is a virtue!! I pray that mine and everyone's PR is approved asap. Cheers... Yes, @syd2016 I agree although some HRs get approved quickly so I wonder if it's dependent on actual nationalities, ie. some countries are looked at less favourably in this Trump world. For instance, I read that Australia will now have stricter border processes for all flights coming in from the middle east, following the US and the UK. Just wondering if they have similar filters for visa applicants? Or maybe they cap per country. Who knows..it's all so secret isn't it? Funny bus analogy - maybe they should've invested in a high speed train system given how much $ immigration brings in to the economy. By the way I think @scorpion69 is a software engineer - congrats mate, so lucky! Edited April 5, 2017 by Izzielizzie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LYWY Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) Hi.... I am new here... Just wondering what spreadsheet you all are referring to? Anywhere I can find it? I am going to apply 186 transition steam from 457, accountant, on shore.... Anyone has similar situation as me? How long is the processing time normally? Thanks in advance...

Thanks in advance... @LYWY - Welcome and Good Luck. The spreadsheet link is given below (https://goo.gl/bFWMIY). Processing time is dependent on your luck to be honest, but probability of getting approval within 6 months is high for "SOL+LR+Transition" applicants (a candidate whose skill is on SOL, belongs to Low Risk Country and applied on Transition stream) Edited April 6, 2017 by syd2016 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ther Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Hi everyone! My 186 nomination refused due to not enough training benchmark fee, my company paid the training again ASAP. Can we pay back date? My MA said will re-apply again. Thanks Very upset on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SABASAI Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) Did the training fee meet the minimum of 1% of the company's annual expense? Edited April 6, 2017 by SABASAI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
