Visa Grant Delay 189

Hi Sam,

If you got grant soon, please update me by replying me.

Thanks,

Sure and Best of luck

Maximum applications lodged in march month of 2019

I hv applied in april 2019 but I really wish to complete the slot of march by october so that april applicants may hv hope

U r rightā€¦seems like visa grants are stuck smwhere

Hi Guys, Just got a scary news from a friend. He applied his 189 on 27 Feb under ICT Sec Specialist. He hasnā€™t go a CO yet! Whereas, I have applied on 21 March under Dev Programmer, I donā€™t want to imagine by when I will be getting a CO myself!

we applied 10th march and havnt got a co yet either but weve uploaded all docs and medicals so were hoping on direct grant! so were not expecting co contact ā€¦ maybe hes the same??

Hello there. We applied on March 9 (75 points, Mech. Engineer)ā€¦ Hoping to have direct grant as well.

As soon as somebody gets a grant let us know!

Not a scary news mate. I also applied in the same occupation for 189 on 27 Feb and have not received any update from the DHA. There are lot of applicants who lodged 189 visa in Jan and didnā€™t receive any update yet. All we need to waitā€¦

will do mate

Thanks!

Would an email/phone notification be sent to the applicant when employment verification happens? (I have provided employment reference letters from past employments)

I also applied on 26 Feb and did not hear anything yet! :frowning:

In the same boat, I applied On 17 feb and the status is received :neutral_face:

Hi,

You applied under which stream? You donā€™t even get any CO contact yet?

Thanks,

Nop, no CO contact yet. I have applied under ANZSCO BA 261111 - onshore

Hi allā€¦i got a queryā€¦is it mandatory to attach form 80 coz the consultant told me that aftr CO contact , he wl attach the same if demanded but clearly it wl delay the decision by 2 months and second is ā€¦ how do they verify PTE scoreā€¦do we need to gv them username and pass word?

Thanks in advance

Hey from my own experience I would just attached everything I can to increase the chances of getting a direct grant, because the current processing time is soooo exhausting. The form 80 is a lengthy one, but I do think it is worth giving it time than having to wait extra 3+ months after they request it (yes, I donā€™t know who those people are who say you get your grant 2 months after the co contact)))) As for pte - I just attached my certificate. As far as I know the department can use your details listed on it to verify your score through the official pte website. Still, donā€™t quote me on this. Always better to check with a professional

To avoid CO contact, it is better to attach form 80(mandatory for permanent visa) and send your PTE score to the DHA via online portalā€¦

Thanks sam
