Doochi 0 Posted April 22, 2021 Hello Everyone, I am new to this forum and will be applying for 143 visa very soon. I want to know when Immigration advises applying for AOS, soon after application submission or way later (generally)? Also, what's the current waiting time getting this visa? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks New applications are likely to take up to 10 years before grant. AOS is only requested towards the end of processing. Over 56000 already in the queue waiting and only 4500 grants available per year. Edited April 22, 2021 by LindaH27 1 143 lodged June 2017 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
