Generally how much time it takes to process visa application? If you trust the spreadsheet it looks like it can be fast, but takes about 1.5 months in average. Good luck, hope you get it before Xmas, keep us posted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are most of them Permanent Residents and/or Australian citizens? I guess this is also influencing on the scrutinity and eye the department is putting into this visas, especially DE one's. Its a large business, over 30 employees and a mixture of residents and citizen's. Yes I agree, my employer had 2 transition applications granted just 6 months ago which where applied for at the same time as mine In August 2016. I think that has impacted on my timescale and caused it to be delayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mind sharing some details like what was the date of your application lodging and were you on TRT. or DE. AND OCCUPATION please. Hey mate of course. My date of application for both nomination and PR visa was lodge through MA on 23rd June 2017. I suspect it could be lodged not until the 25th June 2017 though he told me it's on 23rd June but anyway... Nomination Approved: 14th November 2017 - we've been asked for health check, police clearance, Form 80 and home country certificate of good conduct. All documents submitted on 27th November 2017 Occupation: Geophysicist (Transition Stream) Approved: 20th December 2017 It was interesting bcoz I was chatting with my colleague ytd regarding PR visa. He told me he gave DIBP a call after 6 months and got it approved straight away within few hours. So today decided to give it a go and I'm guessing just a random guy picked up the phone (extremely helpful and polite). He went through my application and said shouldn't be too long and it's been 6 days after the 28th day document submission deadline. And then few hours later my migration agent called me with this good news! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I told my agent I actually called them he was quite surprised - so I’d say go for it, no harm asking how’s your application going. Good luck to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
