Jay. Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Hi all, We submitted medicals and PCC monday, and received comments this morning. It stated they are not in a position to finalise the application due to current processing priorities and restrictions in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. Their final note was “Rest assured, as soon as I am able, I will finalise the application”.Does that mean you have a yes from them for the visa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSkea Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Hi All, Just for interest sake, I have found this doc many moons ago. It somewhat explains why some applications will take longer than others depending on the state to which was applied. Each state gets only a number of places. Vic being the highest, with the highest number of applications as well. https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/foi/files/2019/fa190100048-document-released.PDF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers are per fiscal year. But waiting time is between 1.5 and 2 years, so the ones lodged 2018 are processed in 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AYL Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 3together, thank you for your explanation. I planned to apply Queensland, but the statistic report provided by RSkea, the unsuccessful rate is higher for Queensland than Vic, isn't it? Do i misunderstand the report? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I do not think that there is anything related to the state regarding the unsuccess rates. As soon as you have a sponsoring from the state, the central immigration center (Adelaite for all other countries or HongKong for China) will process your application. Therefore, there is no more decision taken by the states, only by the immigration centers. So you should not consider these rate by state. Choose the state where you want to live. For the next visa 888 you have to apply again at state level and prove you are happily integrated in the community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3together Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 NZ is free of Corona, Australia plans to be free of Corona in July. This might let them go to step 3 or their opening plan. In step 3 they will consider international student to return to Australia, so this could open the boarders for temorary visa holders. 188B is a temporary visa. Anybody has any news from their application and processing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3together Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 The borders in Australia are supposed to be closed till end of 2020 for tourist. But the minister Simon Birmingham said, that for international students, business and investors the borders should open earlier. I think that are relatively good news for our visa class. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-06-17/borders-likely-closed-until-next-year-coronavirus-restrictions/12365978 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
