Btw guys I was the one who lodged the petition and I got an email saying most of the emails are a fraud. So whoever does this it was so disgraceful act towards me. I trusted everyone and tried to help. This is what I am getting back So my takeaway is don’t trust anyone!!!

Omg.

So sorry. It’s very disappointing.

I didn’t expect anything like that would happen.

I don’t understand why people can be so mean.

It’s very hard to be proactive this way.

numbers seems strange, majority of the applicants are onshore,still government is not granting visa. One
who are onshore like me are already working and supporting the economy. I do not understand any reason, why they are not granting the visa to onshore applicants. I am waiting from last 18 month almost and a lot of guys like me are here in this forum

Visas have been granted to NZ stream.

This is awful.

It seems the current backlog is sitting at 20k including both streams and only 6,500 places available this financial year.

Frankly, It doesn’t look good.

6,500 is the new invitation ceiling.

Does it impact the grant in year 20-21 ?

No, 6,500 is the number of visas they will grant in the current financial year.

This has been answered before.

This is from FOI on Home and affairs website.

This will be small number waiting over 12+ months or 18 months + and at onshore.

Sigh.

currently grant is totally stopped so can’t do anything whenever it starts 12 months+ have good chance.

Well that’s what commonsense indicates but it doesn’t work exactly that way.

That is so strange. I was very surprised when I saw the 8020 signature. I just went back in and now it shows 186.

Another CO contact after 1 year of first CO contact (Nov 19) asking for medicals and AFP as they both were expired. My AFP got expired just yesterday and I received request for latest AFP today, interesting. I could only mange to get BUPA appointment in first week on Jan 21. Sigh Sigh Sigh


My god, that is delaying everything and also because they didn’t decide cases when they should have done it and documents got expired.

When did you lodge your application?

What’s your occupation?

Lodged : May 2019: Sofware engg: 190

Thanks for telling us.

Are you aware this forum is for 189 visa?

Have you been requested Police check from the US?

There is another grant reported for 189 from march 2019. I think there are a lot of old application still under processing.

No, I haven’t been asked for US Police check. Whether its 189 or 190, the wait and pain is same, isn’t it?

That’s a good news.

It’s good they are processing old applications.

That’s the fairest way to go.

Hopefully, It still this way.

Do you know what occupation is?
