Visa Grant Delay 189

@parveen.smarty yes,Parveen, I’ve also noticed the significant number of DG for 190 everyday, same confusion as you have. And I also noticed that CO are all asking for PTE score report, that doesn’t make any sense, almost 99% of us have already sent it to DHA.

BTW, what’s the point of giving Grants for 190? NSW 190 applicants would definitely live in Sydney, and QLD 190 would live in Brisbane.

Try the online support on rhe pearson website. I remember when I decided to send again my score, and ì couldnt because had sent it before, ìI then used the online support and they sent me a link that I could privide for CO if they asked for score again. I wish it would be a help.

Wrong !! 190 and 189 are not the same. There are many jobs or skills which is not allowed for 189 but are fine under 190. Example - System Admin can’t apply for 189 , but a developer can apply for both. There is a slight difference. And also please don’t be rude, specially with strangers, all of us are going through the same.

Guys just spoke to the PTE Academic, they say once the PTE is score is sent to DHA , there is no way to send it to DHA again. So i asked them what to do , they said : "Institutions/Schools can only verify PTE Academic score report online via the PTE Academic Score report website http://pearsonvue.com/ptescores "“You can ask them to check your scores online.”

why did it stop again… no updates today… distressing

Congrats. I see you have finally recd grant after one year of wait. So happy for you!

Congrats, you received the grant today…all the best…,just one query i have, didn’t they asked you for new PCC and Medical as they must have expired because it took more than a year for you to get grant ?

Just seen your update. Congratulations on getting your grant. That’s great, must be such a relief for you. Did you get C.O contact for requests yesterday (04/11) too?

Just wondering how quickly they are processing the applications once we respond to CO requests as we had our first C.O contact yesterday for pte scores even though was already submitted when lodged back in February.

It appears that there are a lot of contacts lately but approvals only for few cases, some of them from 2018.

Do you think they may be trying to buy some time by just contacting for a question with an obvious answer? (such as PTE result) Is your time being reset when they contact you or does this contact provide any advantage to them?

Thank you. After the recent delays it’s really encouraging yours was processed within hours of responding. We also replied yesterday so hoping it’ll be only a matter of days now.

Good luck with your move & all the best for your new life in Oz.

Guys can anyone please provide steps to provide the CO access to view PTE scores? Everyone has waited so long and it would be really bad to get a CO contact asking to submit PTE scores again / permission to view it and then have to wait for another 2-3 months.

Maybe extract the PTE score results from your PTE site. PTE has added a score report code in the new results file, you’d notice this when you compare the latest report with what you have uploaded into our lodged application. I’ve gone and extracted the new report and reuploaded it. Hopefully this will prevent the PTE checks by the CO

I have also called up Pearson customer care, as per them if you select the option to send the report automatically to the authorities then it’s sent to them when your report is published for the first time after the exam. There should not be any problem for them to access the reports, they also asked if you are able to access the reports?

On the reports, that are extracted now from Pearson site it gives the score report code, however it mentions a note at the bottom of the page that, "This score report is not valid unless authenticated on the PTE Academic Score Report Website : srw.pteacademic.com

Seems srw.pteacademic.com is the site for the authorities to access, I couldn’t gain access to this using my Pearson credentials.
