I thought I share this information with you:

 

A member on a hungarian forum got his 176 visa on 13th August. His timeline is as follows:

 

IELTS: 06/2008

TRA skills assesment (air condition and refrigerator mechanic): 08/2008

VE 175 application: 08/2008

Meds + PCC sent: 03/2009

VIC SS application: 04/03/2010

VIC SS: 10/03/2010

CO: 20/07/2010

Meds + PCC sent again: 30/07/2010

Visa granted: 13/08/2013

 

They are still in Hungary, the application was offshore, Australia counts Hungary as a high risk country.

 

So DIAC is dealing now with the August 2008 applications (too).

Hi,

 

I am wondering the same thing, I'm on the same situation right now. But I haven't submitted the medicals or PCC yet, going for meds tomorrow.

I did my medicals in second week of Sep, 2009 on the request of CO. Are they going to give me some extension in medicals? If yes then how much?

Hi,

 

Why they taking so long? don't they normally take about 3 months to complete processing? The medicals expires in 12 months, you may have to re do them. Do you still have a CO? or will you be re-assinged?

WOW I am just soo thrilled as I can really see things moving now.

Way to go those 2 year veterans!!!

Also If they are capping next year at 35000, that gives me a hope that they have the staff to manage this amount of new visas. I am December 09 so it looks like we are still waiting.

Wait for elections guys...everything might change again.....lucky ones who got their visas and will get their visas this week....god knows what will happen from next week onwards.

Well said VB!

 

It could all change again! My patience is running very thin now and I'm

beginning to wonder with all these ups and downs whether we will even get our visa granted. I'm sorry to sound so fed up bu when you've been kicked so many times it's hard to get up.

Let's hope Labor wins so changes will be minimal.

I am with you.... I just hang on to every bit of hope thy throw at me. Learning patience but they keep saying " ok only one more month"," just two more months now", "oops sorry 6 months now", "only another 4 months". Throwing me the bone and I keep chasing after it. very stupid on my part!! In my extreme desire to finalize this Visa this is KILLING ME!!!!!!

I've just seen a snippet on sky news about athe Ozzie elections! It's funny how when they mention immigration they only mention the 'boat people'.

It's to close to call. Does anyone know when the results will be in on Saturday?

Hi Guys

 

Connie and I have been conferring and thought it would be good to have a bit of a summary of all these time lines she has been collating in this thread. It also means we can see at a quick glance the general state of play for all of us in CAT 3. (The idea for doing this, this way comes from Taz2008 and Vickymels very useful Cat 5 thread which to all intents and purposes is null and void because of the July 14th changes..) I have copied all the data from page 1 of this thread and put it into a spreadsheet. Hopefully I have transcribed everyone's details correctly, but if I have made any errors, please drop me a PM and I will amend. This also includes me denoting High Risk ® and Low Risk © applicants and have used information Connie very kindly went searching the net for, for me...if I have got the risk status of your country wrong, please also PM to amend.

 

FINALLY... Anyone new wanting to add their timeline, can you use this little template that now includes high risk or low risk country id with ® denoting HIGH and © denoting LOW.

Well done Rach, a great job you are both doing!

 

Its soooo nice to sit back and let someone else take over the reins, after doing the other thread (for Cat 5's) for so long! It is very rewarding running this sort of thread, but is also very hard work and time consuming.

 

Thanks for taking the time to take it on!

 

Keep up the good work... :wubclub:

 

Tasha x:hug:
