Dedrei Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 This to all those that have gotten or still in progress of getting PR while in Australia.How long did your application take to be approved? Also how long do they give you to go overseas for the visa approval and how long will this trip need to be for visa approval?Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJV Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Hi DedreiOur Skilled Independent visa (BN 136 - MODL) got approved 9 months after submission. I must add that we stalled the process deliberately by 2 months with a view to get a later "initial entry" date.For the visa validation have a look at this link courtesy of BE.Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rialet Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Hi DedreiIt probably depends for what visa class PR you apply for but friends of ours got their PR after only 7 weeks of application - they were sponsored by the husband's employer for their PR and things went realitively smooth and quick. They also did not have to travel outside of Australia for the visa approval. They held a 457 visa previously.I can always put you in touch with them should you like to get some more info. They are also Brisbane-based. Just send me a PM should you wish to do so.CheersRialet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
