JackR90 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) Hi there, On April 30th it will be 2 years to the day we applied for the 820 (granted January 2022). Do I have to create a new application to the 801 or does it show up automatically on my immi account? Also I'm sure I read somewhere it shows up 1 month before the 2 year mark, is this true? Also any idea on waiting time for 801? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Jack Edited March 10, 2022 by JackR90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrussell Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 You have to lodge a new application. The day before yesterday an applicant who waited 5 years to lodge stage 2 paperwork (not recommended) was granted PR next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR90 Posted March 11, 2022 Author Share Posted March 11, 2022 Thanks Westly. Can I apply 30 days prior or do I have to wait until exactly 2 years has past? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day before yesterday an applicant who waited 5 years to lodge stage 2 paperwork (not recommended) was granted PR next day. What does that mean? Waited 5 years to lodge stage 2 paper work? Did they apply then wait 5 years, or did they only apply for their second stage after 5 years with all documents. Was it only one document they had to send? The fact they were granted PR the next day is fascinating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrussell Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 They waited for 5 years after their eligibility date to lodge their second stage documents. In the good old days an applicant could front up with a paper application and have it dealt with in 30 minutes or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we had our 309 visa granted in 7 months, so hopefully the 100 gets done quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the good old days when I got my first visa, a 309 was often issued in London in 30 minutes. I walked in with a pile of papers, and my passport, handed them to a lovely lady, she said to go and have a cup of coffee and come back in half an hour. When I returned, 35 minutes later, she was waiting for me with my passport, and the granted visa inside it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
