I applied for visa 143 on 14th August 2015 Really happy for you. I’m so pleased the 143 visa are moving on. May I ask if you have registered an immi account online? Do I need to wait till I have a case officer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosiejaq Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 15 hours ago, Aamy said: The dates in the auto-reply is still mentioning Jun 2015 against 143 visa. As your 143 lodgement date is in Aug 2015, does this mean the auto-reply is not reflecting the correct date? Btw, congrats on the progress of your appln. I have this doubt about this auto-reply because, when I look at the queue vs visa assessment date for 103 & 804, they are 6-7 years apart, wonder if this auto-reply is reliable. Also, looks like ppl are getting email invites for 173 not necessary only upto the date mentioned in the auto-reply which is currently Jun 2015. Also can someone please explain if you knew the difference between Queue assessment vs Visa assessment. Thanks! I think these dates are very vague purposely. We’ve only been asked for docs meds etc and do not expect anything to be near finalising until at least Sep 2019. I would think 2018/19 visas available are about up to the limit as there were so many in June 2015. For the future there is no real marker as government have elections and voters to please so will twist and turn as they have with us. We’re expecting our visa to be granted at around 48-50 months (August-October 2019) .which will hopefully tie in with our boss at work and other family plans. Fingers crossed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been waiting 42 months and have just been asked for docs. Aos is taking about 6months so we think the whole process will be at least 48 months. Assuming things move at the same rate..which they probably won’t you will probably be asked for documents around the end of the year, with visa grant maybe May 2020? Who knows....just wait ...I know it’s hard ...but good luck! If it’s earlier then that will make you happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 It would be so helpful to all if everyone posted their time lines it is very easy to do and you can update as you go along. At the top right hand side where your name is there is a downward arrow, click on Account Settings then on the left hand side of the screen you will see "signature" click on that, fill in your time line in the box and at the bottom you need to save. Same process to update. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean T Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I agree as it really is helpful and I for one love following the progress of the people around our application date. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakkie Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I have been following and documenting all the "dates" I could get since June 2016 in order to try and forecast an estimated date for our application. In June 2016 our estimated date for completion was 03 December 2018, however, the department got snowed under with June/July 2014 applications and our estimated date is now 4 January 2020. The expected processing times have moved from 894 days in June 2016 to 1289 days in 1289 days to date. e.g. If you applied on 23 September 2015 your due date could be 4 April 2019. We all remain hopeful and grateful for this wonderful opportunity to be able to join our kids. Thanks a lot to everybody that posted their processing dates, please keep it up as it does keep me sane PLEASE note this is just simple statistics that I use and NOT the view of any Australian Government Department.

LindaH27 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Sept 2015 application possibly granted April 2019.?? . I think it's going to be longer than that. August 2015 143 applicants have only just been asked to supply documents . Given that AOS alone is taking 6 months that would means that August /September 2019 for visa grant so I doubt an application dated a month later (Sept 2015) would be granted two months from now in April 2019! Current applications are taking approx 49 months! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if that’s right you could do the same? Always thought you had to validate first but apparently not! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The application for the 143 went through on the 19th December and was acknowledged on the 28th December. No queries raised by my agent or Immigration. Won't get the 173 validated until the 20th March. Probably after that date they get my 143 out of their system and put me in a long queue?

Skeelsy Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 After a very stressful 3 weeks trying to apply for AOS for ourselves and now 22 year old son who was 17 when we first applied for 173. No one was sure if he was considered child or adult for Aos. However successfully submitted on 30 Jan via my assurers mygov account. On final page of submission there was a box giving estimated completion date which was 41 days after submission. Photo shows this below. I looked on centrelink site and there was a whole section dedicated to the announcement that at if 1 Jan 2019 they were completely streamlining process with aim of completing by estimated date. Also they said a link would be set up from the applicants mygov that would allow assurer to see progress of application. To date this link hasn’t appeared so clearly still ‘work in progress’. I thought it would be useful to share progress and see if they do meet their estimated completion date. If they do I am sure this will be assuring to many of you out there as progress can be tracked and plans made as opposed to current ‘no one has a clue’ scenario. Downside if they fail just adds to the doom and gloom of ever increasing wait times. Be good to hear if anyone else has been given an estimated completion date. I will update accordingly 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All mine were Spain when I done mine. The form covers all different nationalities so they have to check up on them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
