417 - it's been 3 months of waiting

Hi all, 

New to this forum so please excuse me if I placed this under the wrong subtopic. 

I've applied for a second year 417 visa on the 4th of February and it is still saying ''further assessment'' after 87 days. I'm hoping to find people that are in the same boat as me. 

The facts:

  • Applied for the visa on the 4th of February
  • Been asked to upload more information on the 16th of March
  • Uploaded more supporting documents on the 29th of March
  • Today it's been day 87 and still, have not heard anything. 

I need to travel overseas soon so thinking to apply for a bridging Visa B now. 

Just wondering if there are people that applied around the same date as me and are still waiting as well?

Thanks a lot!

There isn't a lot you can do. Visa processing times have generally blown out. In the past a first WHV was often granted in a meter of hours. At that time a second year WHV would have taken 4-6 weeks. Now, the first year is taking up to two months.
