BenandLou Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Hi Hope someone can help me. We are currently applying for a 175 skilled independant visa, skills have be assessed, we have filled in all the application forms etc, other half's ILETS is booked for next week, just waiting for our migration agent to check our forms before lodging our applicaion. When we first spoke to our migration agent back in April when we first decided to start the process and they said the processing times for the 175 were coming through really quick at the moment and only taking about 9 months. But i have just read that the current processing time is 18 months! Has anyone just had their 175 visa approved and what was the timescale?? Any advice would be good Thanks Lou x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimithechew Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 off the top of my head its 18-24 months, that is what the website said, DIAC, I would stick to those and not get your hopes up, im on a 176 (FS) and also have same timelines, though could be faster.:wink: Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mummy Mann Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Hi, I applied for a 175 visa in june before the new points system. On a daily basis i read the following thread.....New cat 4 July 1st 2011. DIAC are allocating case officers to some march applicants and even April applicants. Also the DIAC have recently said in a statement they are aiming to allocate case officers to all those who applied before July by the end of December this year.
