31Hillbury Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Hi guys! Hope everybody is staying safe in these difficult times. We are currently awaiting our 190 visa grant. We are offshore. When do you all think we will start seeing offshores being granted? Anytime soon. I know all answers are speculative just curious on people’s thoughts.

paulhand Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 We are still seeing permanent visa grants, but not temporary visas. The department is however prioritising onshore and ‘priority’ offshore applications. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When do you think they will resume all offshore permanents? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best Eddie As Paul mentioned earlier, the DIBP will be focusing on onshore Grants and priority occupations. My migration agency told me the same thing unfortunately. From what I have read, there will be a focus to have international students return for their next semester, so I believe that non priority offshore PR visa grants will be considered in the coming months.
