Just want to understand the timelines since it looks like DE is given more preference than the TRTS stream.:-)

Mate, There is no specific timeline I believe. Some gets very fast and some are waiting for ages. 🙂   I am waiting for further assessment since feb and I noticed, application from same code applied in april and already got it. They don't have any SOP and its all about luck

Hello guys,

I just want to say that the PR process is to push your patience to the limit.

There is nothing you can do besides waiting but please ensure you are consistent in documentation & write up of the documents you submit. 

I think it is also about how confident you are with your application which definitely helps you go through it.

I have just received my 186 DE visa half an hour ago.

My timeline was as follows:

All applications & monitoring done through agent.

Visa : 186 DE

Nomination Applied : 11 MAY 2020

Visa Applied : 14 MAY 2020

Onshore : Yes

State: VIC

No. of applicants : 2

Role : CIVIL ENGINEER 233211

Medicals completed: 14 July 2020

Case officer appointed: 17 July 2020, requested further information same day (overseas police check expired, reference letters from overseas & letter from Australian Employer to show that job is still available, proof from firm to show financial capability to support the nominee)

Documents submitted to CO: 12 AUG 2020

Nomination approval: 14 AUG 2020

Requested for extension to submit visa documents: 14 AUG 2020 (Australian police check expired - took 2 weeks to be delivered, Name wrongly written on overseas police check)

Submitted documents to CO: 28 AUG 2020

Waited for nearly a month... reading the threads on this forum.

Visa status: Granted 23 SEPT 2020

 

All the best to those who are still waiting. I am sure you are not far from receiving your permanent residency.

Hey,

Thanks!

I had to write an authorisation letter to my parents back to my country. Then they applied for it, waited & collected it. They then sent me a scanned pdf version of it. If that's what you are asking.

I was waiting for this date when I share this news with you folks.

 

Today I got the golden email by my agent. I used to login to the portal to check the status check 10times in a day but from past week I was not bothered to check. Today when I got the mail from agent then I checked the portal and status is finally finalized.

Thanks all for your support and happy to share my experiences

Thanks everyone. 

@raj4949 I hate to be the one with the news but there is no set timeline for this. 

I've seen some get a response within 1 day and others take up to 10+ months... Really it all depends on the case officer and application (what checks they doing etc.) as this typically implies they need to do some additional checks / work on the application file (this could be anything really). 

Sorry it's not useful, nor what you'd want to hear - but it does mean someone has your file and that you will get an update / response. Which is good news! Have patience and stay strong.
