BellaR Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Martin, when did you lodge? We lodged on 17 November (decision ready) and as far as I know we don't have a CO yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin101 Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Hi BellsIm on 189 I am using an agentLodged 19/11/2014CO 03/12/2014Are you using an agent??Did you use immiaccount or skillselect? (no expert in this)But on that you can apparently see if Co was assigned.Otherwise siff through your mails again because they send a letter saying you got one.Let me know and holding thumbs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caz Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Hi Bella,Our timeline for 186 visa as follows:30/05/2014 - Submitted both employer nomination & 186 visa application18/08/2014 - Employer nomination approved19/08/2014 - Visa approved Our visa application from lodging to approval thus took about 11 weeks. I do not know when a CO was assigned. Does the ± 2 weeks closure time of the immigration offices over Christmas not affect the processing time of your application? Anyway, good luck and keep strong!

BellaR Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Yes, I am using an agent. It seems Immi is inundated with 186 applications and they are only now starting to process the October applications, so I'm guessing we still have about a six week wait. Man, I hate this waiting game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatalieB Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Hi BellaR,I am in the same boat.. but looking at other forum trackers... it looks like they are busy processing applications for late November now... so it may be any time now ... have you done your medicals and PCC? I am still waiting for my UK PCC... but I lodged ,my application on the 3rd Dec.. so I have 2 more weeks of waiting after you get your grant!!!

BellaR Posted February 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Hi there, yeah pcc's and medicals done, so we are decision ready. Apparently people who lodged after 22 Nov are being processed differently on the new system and getting grants a lot faster than before 22/11. So you will probably get a grant before me! Let me know how it goes pls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaxInBriz Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Bella and Natalie, no news for over a month now - have either of you had any progress?We lodged on 7th January so I'm tracking you both to estimate when I can expect some movement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BellaR Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 No news yet. It seems they are busy with mid to end October applications now, even one or two from November, so hopefully we only have a few more weeks' wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaxInBriz Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 We were told 4-5 months by our agent so we're expecting something around end May but hoping for an earlier response Current average processing time is 106 working days - not great with so many holidays in April!!
