Visa Grant Delay 189

#147

No, it doesnt looks like anything has moved.

  • No grant or CO contact for applications since 7th March since a very long time.
  • Last Grant was on 5th Sept which was for an older application.

She’s right. There have been CO contacts for Feb applicants recently. Not sure “humara number kab ayega”

I had got invitation on 11 jan’19 and my lodgement date is 16th Feb’19. Got CO contact on 21st June’19. Hoping to get the grant in this month

Morning everyone. I’m onshore, so tried to call a migration agency to see what they say about the processing time. Just as I had expected the lady said there was no point in making an appointment unless your waiting time has exceeded the official timeline. Other than this, no rumors

Invitation on 11 jan. Lodged on 20 feb. 7 months now Co contact- 25 june (more than 45-60 days as they mentioned)

But my medical is going to expired on 21 september(tomorrow). Do i need to do again?? Means one more co contact. :hot_face::hot_face:

I dont see any more CO contacts or Grants for application lodgments after 7th March, which has been the case since very long now. There may have been some movement in applications before that which were still pending.

#153

You may want to do that beforehand to avoid CO contact

Thanks for the info AnaRek.

10 months now, lodged visa and paid the fees on 8th dec. 2018, got CO query on 19th March 2019 asking my wife’s birth certificate, provided that same day, now days , weeks and months are passing and life is stuck completely
what is happening?? lodged with 70 point for 263111 computer network and system engineer
so many questions in mind, what to do now ???

  1. Does contacting DOHA goes negative against your application??

  2. Does it help anyhow to contact them ?

  3. If they have taken the fees, what maximum time they can take ?? Its going to be an year now soon.

  4. If the year is passed for Medical tests and police verification, do we have to go for both again ??

#160

thanks , but how much more time when they will start giving grants, it has been 10 months i am waiting after lodging.

#161

i think you and I are the oldest ones waiting here, you lodged on 7th nov and i did it on 8th dec 2018


#162

You have already crossed the given time. No harm in contacting DHA.

#163

You can contact DHA as your waiting time is over official time. One friend of mine sent a complain and then was granted within several days last year. Definitely no harm but not quite sure if it works. It’s abnormal now


#164

Hello all. Just some comments from my migration agent after suggesting him to make a claim:

“It will not make much difference to make a claim right now, given that DHA is so focused in the November changes that they are not even responding in many cases. Just wait since you are very close to the grant. I have other agent friends that are in the same situation without visa grants for months”.

Hope everything can normalize soon.

#165

Looks like 189 is not the only affected visa stream

#166

my MARA agent is not in favor of doing follow up with DOHA
don’t know why but they are saying it’s always better to wait
