I have a colleague who applied as Marketing Specialist in mid2017 (I would say april/may 17, but I'm not 100% sure, so take this with a grain of salt) and got her PR after 7 months. LR, DE, 2 people. 

Good to hear. I do think it's hard to speculate on patterns based on job type when we've only got visibility of a few hundred (max) applications in our sample group, out of tens of thousands actually being processed (i also want to believe this as i'm in application as a marketing specialist too ;))

My Marketing Specialist friend (July 2016, 2 applicants, LR, DE) was finally given a bit of an update yesterday from immigration - they were told that as they've only just finished processing April 2016 applications, it's probably going to be another couple of months until their application is looked at. Either they're saying this to manage expectations (i.e. to underpromise and overdeliver), or it's true they've literally left the older applications behind while they process the newer ones.

It's been 20 MONTHS!

20 months...that insane

Yeah i agree. It's just when you hear nothing at all about that particular occupation it becomes hard not to speculate..

11 months - cook trt.. no news.. nothing.. call immigration 3 times. They told us to wait patiently, nothing else. 

Is there any cook got their visa before 11 months recently?

any other accountant whose visa granted recently?

Just IMO, they seem to work based on the occupation of the applicant?

I heard there is also quota/ceiling per year for those occupations?

If so, they will not process for jobs that is almost or nearly hit the ceiling figure.

And just a suggestion for those who've  been waiting longer than 70-90% advised processing time, you may need to go to lawyer in a group to represent your case, once it goes to public then hopefully the immi would be watched closely and hopefully they would speed up all the process?  sounds risky but i'd try if I am in that position which i hope i would not be

I very much doubt the Australian public cares about people trying to emigrate here. In fact most Australians according to the latest figures are against migration to their country thats not essential.

And yes there are caps on occupations, they sat in on the website but do not specify which occupations it relates too. From what I can decipher though it is almost certainly marketing specialists, cooks/chefs, and accountants.

BAS not lodged? did you lodge it till date or till the recent one? My MA advised me recently to get Latest BAS from company as you need to keep it up to date till they decide or start working on your case.

Worst thing is when they refuse visa after waiting so long. This is just fully waste of time. If we get the result on time we can plan something else for our future. By the time they give their decision the decision visa runs out. And we loose all the money time and opportunities.

I keep asking my MA if we need any thing to submit and she always says to provide with till date BAS , Payroll etc things from company to attach on 186 application. I didn't know whats the rationale behind it until I  read heena's refusal. I'm trying to connect dots (perhaps)
