187 Visa Processing Time


Big bird 12

Recommended Posts

Good morning everyone. 

I just call immigration department at the same time they answer my email (I send 2 weeks ago). 

Same  answer as before: 

Phone call: 

They currently allocating cases from 04/2016 to 03/2017. Can't give an estimated time, can't tell if case officer will accept expired documents and exams it depends of case by case.

 

Email: 

......

Thank you for your email.

Your application is not yet allocated to case officer. I am sure you can appreciate, most applications come with their own unique set of circumstances and are often lodged with claims of urgency. Please trust that we are also eager to progress your application as quickly as possible.

Please refer to the auto reply email you have received when you send below email for the current allocation dates.

Estimates of processing times that may apply to different types of applicants are provided as a guide only. As processing times are dependent on a range of factors, individual processing times may vary considerably from the published estimates. Processing times may be impacted each month by changes in application volumes, complex cases, and incomplete. 

.......

Let's wait and see what's going to happen ;-) 

Hopefully a lot of granted visas this week ????

Hi, there
What email address you have send for asking your case? And how long you got response from them?
I think we may try to email instead of calling them. It takes too long to connect their phone

If you call early in the morning, you don't need to wait... Automatic system will call you back when someone is able to pick your call. 

Number: 131881 > 3 

This is the e-mail (nsw.pse@border.gov.au) call center gave to me, you'll receive an automatic reply and after that they will be answered  in around 2 weeks. 

I send 04/07 and received a message today 16/07. 

 

All this information is provide on DIBP website ;-)

Hi SaurabhG... 

You right ;-) 

As I said, you don't need to waiting if you call early in the morning, the system give you a call back automatically.

Yes, I did call the number provide on my application, on that number seems they have changed to department for Citizenship Applications. 

I call 131881 and they gave me all the numbers I already tried.

I'm just playing to see if I can get more information from different sources.  

 

This's not mean I've called everyday/week 

Thanks for your information.

I also think that they stopped processing. Since I applied the processing time roughly increased each month by one month. And this visa is priority group 1. I am skilled IT person with research experience and my boss really needs me starting ASAP. My MA said it too risky for me to go on bridging visa, so I am on a student visa working part time.

I think they will change the rules retrospectively and that will cause most visas to be invalid. They take their time to define everything and so long everything is on hold.

BTW is there any other IT person waiting? I am in month 12.
