Visa Grant Delay 189

Congrats! BTW, What’s IED stand for? So based on your case, can I confirm there is no influence if you applied for BVB and travel overseas? The grants pace will not be impacted? Am I right?

IED - Initial Entry Date. This is when DHA knew that applicant is not in Australia at the time of GRANT. As far as I know, BVB doesn’t have any impact on visa processing.

Thanks a lot.

Thank you Kirasid. Enjoy your new journey with PR.!

My daughter’s medicals has expired post visa lodgement, is there a way i could get her medicals done again proactively to avoid co contact and possibly get direct grant ?

I would suggest that you wait for CO contact. Assuming that the health examinations are valid for a year, my health examinations had expired by 4 months when I got the visa grant. However, I was not asked to resubmit new health examinations.

Processing time brought down to 13 months. Its already been 14 months for me. Its getting even more frustrating.

Same opinion with Petphilips. As per cases shared by the fellows, sometimes they won’t ask for health assessment again even it has expired. So I suggest that you can wait for CO or Direct grant as well.

Are we all loading this proof in wrong section ? Where did you load Functional English proof ? Under Primary applicant --> Partner skills, evidence of OR under Spouse --> Skill Assessment, evidence of ? I was not asked for this yet but your post made me think about this.

I have uploaded it in Language Ability, Functional English, Evidence of for the spouse

I see. I don’t have this section under my spouse name. May be because i am claiming points for my spouse as well, so i have this section under my name --> Partner skills, Evidence of. I have uploaded IELTS score here.

I have uploaded following docs for spouse functional English

Letter from university, Degree transcripts and certificate

Hope these are good enough and PTE is not required

DOHA are only giving grants of march applicant

Applicants before March are out of sight and out of mind for DHA. They will never get grants.

they will give but we have to wait

Yes. Probably 5 more years.
