Guest Littletwinny Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I've read loads of all your time lines and come to the conclusion that we've done things in a really odd order! Application was lodged in Oct 2010, case officer allocated by May 2011, extra info required in June along with medicals and police checks...medicals were the last thing to do and they were done on 22nd August. So now we wait! Most frustrating thing is that our application online had to be withdrawn (due to an error by a clerk at the agents office!) so we have a paper application and therefore no TRN and no easy way to check on progress! (have to resist emailing agents every 5 minutes for an update) Not knowing how long how have to wait is horrible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this long waiting list because your occupation was not in SOL for a period of time or may be, is still not in SOL.

Guest The Fitz's Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Hi At the time off applying my occupation (butcher/small goods maker ) was on the sol list. However it has now been removed, so i guess i'll be waiting a long time to hear anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambos Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Hi all Processing dates updated.....moved to 9 sep 2010. Before 1 july they were fast but now they have really slowed down. Atleast some progress.. Yeah the progress has slowed down considerably i.e in July cat 4's who applied 10-July-2010 had been assigned a co and now end of Aug Cat 4's who applied 09-Sept-10 have been assigned a case office. Rate of progress has slowed down to one months worth to every month that passes! In Aug-10 the ex-rate was $1.70 to the £1 this dropped to about $1.55 a few months after and did not really recover. My point being is this may have put off a number of people applying at the time and therefore the rate of assignment may increase! (Just trying to put a positive spin on things):smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But u can apply for a new application with new fees. :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tony Smithy Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Hi Guys, (first time poster here) Does anyone know if I apply for a 176 family visa and my occupation is on the SOL schedule 1 - will I be a priority group 3 or a priority group 4? or are other factors taken into account to determine the priority group?

Smithy (Sorry if this is in the wrong thread but it seemed relevant) I think your are at cat group 04. only the 176 state sponsor applicants are belong to cat group 03. samk6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wabound Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 mysticg, well done! great news for a friday, 7 months not too bad then. But as you applied in feb, before the new rules, you were probably in priority group 3. The medicals dont take too long, we got an appt straight away and the results were final after 2-3 weeks. The PCC wont take long either, 10 working days they say. All down hill from now, yippee!! Thank you for letting us know, this is what we hang on to, the success stories!
