Hello Guys,
The very first news for me was “Grant of 189 Visa”. Feeling relaxed and i wish you all waiting for the same news for a longer than me.
My Case: Onshore 90 Points Invitation: 11 Jan 2020 Lodged: 20 Jan 2020 CO: Feb 26 2020 (PCC) Replied: Feb 28 2020 Grant: 11 May 2020 I can understand the level of stress for those who are waiting. Wish you good luck !! you all will get it soon.
Congrats dude
Oh beautiful. Congratulations! My situation is exactly same as yours. Invited on 10th jan.2020, Onshore, Had CO contact on 26th feb for PCC and responded in same day.
Status is “further assessment” so just waiting for it to be picked up.
just randomly posted it thinking it will help me ?
Take expert advice on above group
Any new grant?
My Health Check and PTE scores expire in June. After the CO contact, my case is still in further assessment since Feb 6th. Anyone in the same boat who can help me on what should be done next? With the current covid situation, I am not sure if I will be able to get an appointment for either.
With my understanding, you don’t have to attempt the PTE or go for skills assessment again once you get ITA. They can, however, ask for Health Check and PCC which will be available in due course.
Any idea if any visa will be granted for offshore applicants before Sep 2020 ?
Thank you Hardeep!
Not sure, Rita. The borders seems to be closed for 2020 and since DHA will have to align themselves with that, seems 2021 is when they will open it for offshore - keeping my fingers crossed though!
I see this when I log into my immiaccount now : Some delays to visa processing due to COVID-19
Some visa processing times have been affected and applications may take longer to finalise. As a priority, the Department is processing visa applications for travellers who are exempt from our travel restrictions to support urgent travel.
My processing time increased from 12 months to “13 to 14 months”. Damn endless wait. Here people applying in January 2020 are getting PRs.
I know!! This is frustrating!! Anyway I am past the 14 months too …God knows when it will come through for me!
Hi did u got pr
