Any of you have received such info? Posted October 21 On 10/17/2019 at 2:39 PM, Ike said: BREAKING NEWS.. Now processing October 2015. Just to include some subsequent information to the above table. The DHA had included the Onshore visa applications within the respective offshore categories - whereas the Onshore applications had been moving faster. The DHA have updated the information to include: We have identified some discrepancies in processing times between offshore and onshore visas in both Parent and Contributory Parent categories and are taking action to correct them. * Onshore Contributory Parent (UU884 and DG864) visa subclasses have been assessed up to January 2017. Onshore Contributory Parent visas lodged from January 2017 onwards are likely to take longer to process while we action offshore Contributory Parent (CA143 and TU173) applications to bring the dates back to parity. ** Onshore Aged Parent (BP804) visas have been assessed up to Queued Date of May 2012. Onshore Aged Parent applications with a Queued Date of May 2012 onwards are likely to take longer to process while we action offshore Parent (AX103) applications to bring the dates back to parity. This is good news for the 143 visa applicants as it suggests that they will be bringing the 143 into line with the 864 applications. The DHA had reached up to processing visa applications submitted in January 2017 for the 864 visaapplications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pars90 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Hi all , Since 143 visa processing for 2016 Queue has started, I am also joining the forum. Applied for my dad (mum was not keen I know it is weird) around 25 Oct 2016. Acknowledgement email 31st Oct 2016. I lodged using an immigration agent. She reckons my dad will get his PR by Nov 2020. I am predicting he will be called for documents in 9 months and PR in 13 months but let's see :). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a 173 applicant, there doesn’t see to be many of us so please let us know your parent’s progress. I think things move a bit quicker in the final stages for 173s because the AoS part happens in Australia. Will be interesting to see how that impacts timelines. Good luck and fingers crossed it won’t be long now! Edited November 5, 2019 by JoMichellle Spelling mistake 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know, previous 173 cases may normally take around 3-4 months to be granted visa after asking for further documents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am predicting he will be called for documents in 9 months and PR in 13 months but let's see :). Hi Pars90 I think PR by Nov 2020 might be a little optimistic. Not sure if you've seen the original PDF doc I uploaded here. (updated version below) Using those government figures it calculates that there are 9,554 173's +143's applications between the last known request for docs (4th Nov for 12th Jan 2016 application) and October 25th 2016 when your Dad applied. Based on that, even if they achieve the full parent visa annual quota of 7,175 it could still be a further 16 months before being contacted for additional inf/docs. However, we don't know how accurate this is because none of the information from them can be trusted! Also we don't really know how the parity issue with onshore applications will affect the progress. There are 6,400 ahead of us so I'm not expecting to be contacted for further info untill around Sept/Oct 2020. Updated version of the report for all who are interested. I'll run another one off when some Feb 2016 applications are requested for additional info/docs.

Biggsy Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Just did some more checking, in 10 weeks the number of 173's+143's applications has only moved by 650 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaH27 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Thanks for the updated figures Looking at them there was an absolutely huge jump in applications for May and June 2017. Coincidently I believe this is apparently when the Australian govt announced they were looking into creating a temporary 3/5 year parent visa - the 870!! I suspect many applied because they wondered whether the govt were doing this because they were perhaps considering ending/suspending the usual CPVs like NZ?? It was mentioned in parliament when Senator McKim queried the long delays in assessing CPV - the government spokesman said they were surprised that there was a spike in parent applications at that time and they didn’t know why! If these figures are correct then May/June 2017 applicants (I am one!) will face an exceedingly long delay as will those after those dates. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I feel your pain Linda, almost 9,000 applications in just 2 months. Had we known how many applications were in front of us at the time I'm not sure we would have bothered to apply. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBee2019 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Hi I just joined the forum. Been following it for a while now. I applied 143 visa for my mother in Jan 2016 and just received the most awaited email yesterday :) Now I am looking into AoS and other requirements as detailed in their email. Thought I'd let you know so that your hopes continue to be fueled by the progress they've made. I am going to add details to my signature shortly. 1 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pars90 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Hi Tulip and Biggsy thanks for reply. Yes Tulip, for whatever reason my dad decided to apply himself so he can come and invest while my mum did not bother saying I can come to visit anyway. Not a bad decision considering when we applied it would take 18 months and now around 4 yeats at best case.. Thanks Biggsy for info. I hope it somehow changes because my dad is getting quite old and he has lost interest in his visa pretty much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
