one more who is a February applicant who is not on immitracker. co contacted in september for pte
How long does SC190 visa takes to get processed?
Hay Guys, me again! I am really frustrated as I haven’t been even contacted since I lodged my application in April, only received a assessment commence email in Nov. I have a question: does the state the sponsor you have anything to do with the speed of your visa process? I am sponsored by QLD, for which grants are slower than other states. or maybe it’s because QLD has smaller number of applicants compared to other states? I wish I know how their system works. Do they really have a specific algorithm for who, how, and from which state to pick cases? 
im afraid there isnt much we can do but wait hopelessly
just pray and wait for the word “GRANTED”
theyve bascially stopped looking at 190 visas.this is shameful , no immigration office is as inept as the Australian one , and they get fewer applicants compared to us and canada. this is criminal!
Only 01 grant this week in 190 and 04 grants in 189 , i guess DHA team is enjoying at work or what … there should be some way to put our grievances .
it seems like they have put 190 on a back burner. there has been very little movement over the last month or so. 189 and 489 visas are flying in . this is outrageous.
Yes. Jan months was of 189, most of the applicants waited for 10 months . 190 has definitely taken back seat. Getting tensed now as will they also follow same pattern for 190 as well 
, make people wait for 10 months if not less.
around 09-10 grants in 189 today and 0 grants for 190 , this is ridiculous. genuinely i feel some way the DHA should listen to us . this month only 30 grants , i think this is too too less , lets hope DHA pulls up their socks and start working
Its evident that 189 is prioritised now. Already 2 GRANTS today for April lodgements. Not sure when they will take up 190 Visas.
what they are doing is criminal. its been 3 months since co contact and i havent heard anything back yet.
lodged 2nd april 2019. co contact was on nov 5th for pte and overseas education proof. both were already provided in the beginning. they dont even have the decency to go through our application thoroughly it is disgraceful .
oh that’s bad to request documents that were already provided. I think they are doing it on a purpose just to delay Grants, but not sure why?. I was asked to sign and upload health undertaking documents for my kids which I provided in just 2hrs on Nov 28. Normally, experienced people say that once health undertaking documents are submitted, Visa Grant will be 2-5 days, but 2 months passed already.
nobody knows how long it is going to take, we can just assume. there are a bunch of applications still waiting for a decision since december and even earlier. few cases have even gone beyond 18+ months, it is ludicrous .
So, based on your theory, DHA has a certain number of officers and they’re assigned to only one visa type at a time. And now it’s 189’s turn. That’s unbelievably ridiculous. I’ve already waited for 10 months and I believe I deserve some sort of contact. On another observatory note, two thirds of 31 grants of Jan are from months 8,9, and 10.
thats the disturbing part. at least 189 visas are granted in a systematic manner. 190 visas are being granted randomly it seems, we are all waiting since dec-april and people who have applied aug-nov are getting grants. how is that fair on us? and i don’t think they work one just one visa type at a time. but i do think , they prioritise certain visas to keep up with their published processing time.
I actually found someone from 189 who has lodged visa on Feb and received assessment commence email in June from the same CO as I did in Nov. We both are still waiting. I think COs change over time. It’s not one CO assigned for one case. It’s just so random and this randomness makes it unbearable. And the way they treat CO contacted cases such as you, is outrageous. There is no one to complain to.
24 Grants in 2 days in 189 and only 2 grants in 190, but something very strange all these 189 visas processed in around 300 + days , seriously DHA should do something for grants, actually Aus System taking around 2 years to make our grant happen , right from all assessments to the final G.
