I have seen 2 offshore grants in one of the WhatsApp group in 1 week timeframe.

Hi @GurminderSingh, I just saw your message in mail but not able to find it immi tracker. One of the grant was for mechanical engineer who logged in 2020. However, yesterday grant was for person who logged in Nov 2019. He has uploaded the PCC again in Nov 2020. His medical was expired even though he got the grant.

hello veena. i deleted that post as i thought it might create negativity among forum readers. its good that they have started giving grants to offshore people as well.

#5702

Yeah lots of negativity around. However, latest grants have given me hope that something is happening for offshore candidates too. I am also thinking whether I should also re-do the PCC and upload it.

yeah thats a good idea. I have also done my pcc in march but havent uploaded it. I am thinking to upload it tomorrow. hope it helps.

#5704

Great, let’s hope it will help. Does you PCC has any end date? I was checking my PCC which was done in july 2019 but I do not see any end date in the PCC document. I read online that India PCC is valid for 6 months but it depends also on where you submitted your PCC. Do you have any idea regarding it?

#5705

its valid for one year.

#5706

no my pcc does not have any expiry date. it only has the date of issue. overseas pcc is valid for one year from date of issue.

#5707

Any offshore co contact recently?

#5708

Nothing is gonna happen for offshore at least till June 2022. Till then relax.

May I know which country your friend (offshore grant person) belongs to and the occupation?

#5716

Five out of the last eight CO contacts had been for offshore applicants (on Immitracker). One already received a grant.

not yet. I have uploaded updated pcc last week. looks like they will contact after june.

#5720

Yeah, Being offshore we can only hope and pray to get the CO contact or direct grant. With decreasing no of Covid cases in India and increase in vaccination, I hope things will be back to normal soon and we will get our grant before July 2021.

On my 485 visa application, I got a co contact on 14 May (after 2 years of applying) asking for a new medical examination and Polio vaccination certificate. I submitted the updated Medical examination that I had taken recently in connection with my 482 visa application, and Polio certificate, on 17th May. No further movement on 485 (It has been a few weeks since I provided the requested information), not sure when 485 will be granted. My 189 application is going to be exactly two years old on coming 11 June… No CO contact on 189 application so far …
