CarmenChung Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I don't understand why can't they process files in chronological order! If they find some file suspicious/high risk, why don't they refuse them faster? Much better than letting someone wait for 2 years then refusing them. Finger crossed for everyone! Hopefully it will get faster soon because very few can lodge after March. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not how it works :) Once they open the file (regardless how 'suspicious' or 'high risk' it is) they can request further documents if needed and then resolve it within 28 days. In some cases it can take another 28 days for the final resolution. So it's the opening of the case that takes long, not the decision itself once it's open. Once it's open they are pretty quick at approving and refusing. The processing time was yet again extended today, we can only hope it was done for the last time. Try not to fall into 'waiting' mode but instead live your life in the moment and enjoy every day of it. Overthinking and stressing wont make your file open faster, or get a positive outcome. Everything is in the mind really so just set your mind to think positive and to deal with the things as they come. We only live once. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case (the numbers were changed based on previous month processing time - factual), they could as well drop. Could have been a difficult month as in too many not decision-ready applications, the CO waiting for additional documents for too long, other issues with the applications, etc. Will see.

Yeah I agree. I wasnt saying it will increase as per my original post (factual). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ring3018 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 It’s ridiculous the money we pay for the department increased up to 300% compared to the years before (not including the medical, police check, the continuous regulation changes so we need migration agents to keep up). Then they fired half of the staffs in the department even though they increase the visa fee every year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did say 'unfortunately' which can only mean increase though. As a decrease would be very fortunate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely! Thinking about it myself. I guess the whole point of the regional visa is to grow the economy in those areas. More people and therefore more investment and job creation. Its a good thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markix Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 hi all! I got an important question: I have applied for the 187 visa through a MA, I have an application ID, but after asking him how I could check my application he replied only he could do that through the immi account, that I had given him the power to do so (true of course), but can I also check my immi account? can you guys check your immi account even if you have applied through a MA? thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ring3018 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 2 hours ago, Garry-88 said: Well he can’t say that 7000 in 190,000. 190,000 is the numbers combined partner visa, skilled migration, employer sponsored etc... 189, partner visa can basically live anywhere. 489,190 can live depend on their state sponsored but even so, they can live in Melbourne or Sydney as well. In 2017-2018, the actual number of pp get approved for 186-187 is only 25,000-35,000. But you can work in big cities with 186 and 187 employer sponsored is only 10,000-15,000. So in my opinion, 7,000 is kind of acceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably needs it if im honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't say so that is why it is misleading as it is mention the people who lives in regional area highlighted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
