tigerlily47 10 Posted January 24, 2018 Hello there, I'm not very clued up on writing on this forum, so apologies if I've put it in the wrong place. We applied for the above Visa on 18th November 2016. Immigration are currently processing applications 8th September 2016. They have been on this date for almost 8 months to my knowledge. Would anyone know how long it normally takes please? Kind regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan Collett 3,380 Posted January 28, 2018 There is no such concept as a "normal" processing time, I'm afraid. I'm following up the 864 visa application timeline, as I agree - processing appears to have stalled. Best regards.

Thanks Alan, A shame that they can't provide clarity on this and a bit frustratinng. Alongside Accountants for the 189 (no invites for anyone for 4 rounds, even 80 pointers) it feels like the rules are being changed without being told they are changing ? Oh well back to wait and see and thanksfor your follow up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferrets 433 Posted February 12, 2018 @Alan Collett it looks like asking has had a response, queue for 864 has now moved forward 3 weeks to 30th September 2016 ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan Collett 3,380 Posted February 12, 2018 I think there was probably already an intention to progress the 864 cohort, but thank you for suggesting I might have made a difference ...
