Hi CR7

Its a long waiting I know. Your app is in this fin.year, till june 2018.  Be calm mate. It took 4.5 years. They will contact you for medical check and police check to do again, after for second app.payment and finally visa grant. No differents between 116 and 836. Kind regards :)

Hello Kikice,

I got approved for my carer visa last year. Can I ask you about care payment from centrelink. Am I eligible for that payment? I can not find a job because I have to look after my sponsor. 

Thanks!

Hi All,

New in this forum.

Been back reading and this chat is very helpful. Congratulations to all those who got their visas approved!

We have an 836 applied last April 27 2017, received an email of s56 Request for more Info February 2018 but no email regarding queue date, usually how long does it take to get a queue date?

 

Cheers Everyone!

Hi MerryPumpkin !
I also applied for carer 116 in May 5, 2015 by a lawyer, in July 2017, the immigration department sent a letter requesting additional information. I also asked the attorney about the date of the queue but did not have it, and I knew that there are some people more than 3 years and 6 months of applicants. I'm really confused ...

115 visa approved. 7 years to the day after sending applications off. Still coming to terms with the news. It has been a tough journey but was worth the wait.

Congratulations. Can you plz share your queue date and year of application lodgement?

Hi Sophiavee

Well done for waiting so long and getting to Australia. If you don’t mind could you let us know when your visa was approved. Your queue date was a few weeks before mine.

finally VISA APPROVED!

VISA: CARER 836

QD: MAY 2015 

 

Hi 

I just got updated from the website at September 2019,  Carer visa application with a queue date up to 11 October 2017 has been released for final processing, and there will be no further queue release for this visas during program year 2019-2020.

My Queue date is December 2017.  Is there any one can estimate roughly how long i have to wait ! 

I have been so frustrated for waiting and have been thinking to give up and go back my country, since i am on financial hardship and have to financially support my partner who is the main applicant carer and has no right to work. 

thanks !

VISA: CARER 836

QD: DEC 2017

If there will be no further release for 2019-2020 then they will not begin processing again until July next year.
