New Visa processing time for month ending December has been updated 

186DE - 4 months to 7 months

186 TRT : 5 months to 10 months 

These are numbers for 75% and 90% processing of applications. 

Don't trust this processing time

many people waiting more than 12 months

Anybody know if 186 DE for PMSOL occupations are being processed for offshore candidates? I currently have a 482 visa with travel exemption but finding it very difficult to return to Australia due to the flight caps otherwise I would have been onshore.

Have you tried booking business class or first class? 

Yes, my last flight was business but got bumped off cos of the 50% reduction in flight caps. Have to wait for the refund and increase in caps before I can shell out $6k again.

Who told you that the status was "AWAITING APPROVAL" as there is no such message on the ImmiAccount. 

@Raul Senise - you are correct - I went and saw the HR, and when they showed it to me on screen it is "Received". Nomination was submitted on 31 October 2020. Company is large ASX listed with over $500m in Revenue - any clue how long the nomination approval would take? I've already submitted a "decision ready" visa application with medicals etc. all done. Applied onshore

What is the Request for VAC2??

My wife is required to provide functional English evidence, such as IELTS 4.5 for each section. However, she did not take any test before. Another option for her is to  pay second  instalment fee, which usually is called VAC2

Waiting for vac 2  invoice from March 2020

Waiting without any useful information is upset. We know and experienced this.  After expressing our feeling, we will feel better. Really thank this forum, we know that we are not alone. Be strong.

Great you've got so far ! My nomination was lodged on 31 Oct 2020 and visa application on 7 November 2020. Medical completed on 9 November and all decision ready documents provided. Haven't heard anything on my nomination or visa yet ! The nominating company is ASX listed and over $500m revenue. Just 2 applicants, both onshore as well. The waiting is creating so much anxiety!
