Hi all,

Have been followed this topic for a while and just got my PR last Fri-yayyy!
Just want to share my timeline with you, and hopefully you will get yours soon.

Application: 22 Oct 2021 - on shore
Occupation: Landscape Architect (ANZSCO 232112) - non PMSOL
Medical clearance: 18 Jan 2022
Nomination approved: N/A as my company applied via agent
Visa grant: 9 Sept 2022 (11 months)

Has been checking my immi account every couple days, and yes the status was always 'Received' and got to 'Finalised' last Friday.

All the bests,
Thanks for sharing @Sophia Le . Congratulations and all the very best.
 
Hi Everyone.
I'm jumping into this thread to know more about the 186 Direct Entry visa timeline.

Here are my application details:

Visa and nomination applied: 14-June-22
Medical examination submitted: 01-July-22
Skill: Developer Programmer (261312)
Application status: Received
Location: Offshore (Living outside Australia)

Did any Developer Programmer receive their visa in recent days?
Not yet mate, I applied on Jul 6, completed medicals in a week.
Developer programmer, onshore, accredited.

I think you might get soon, keep us posted. :)
 
I also have my suspicions about the prioritisation of off shore applications, but I will know once I get this FOI request back!
I'm guessing even prioritisation takes time, usually visa processing priorities come from ministerial instructions. I'm guessing those should get passed or whatever the terminology is. Then offshore applications will be prioritised, at least that's my guess.
 
Hey Fellow PR strivers, finally got approved 2 days ago after a wait of 414 days (official max processing time (for non-complex cases) given by DHA was 419 days). 1st time my company has filed for PR so its accreditation must have delayed the process as well.

Stay strong and patient. I understand how frustrating it is. seems to be moving now!
Awesome, congratulations mate! Long wait.

Can you also put more info if available, onshore/ offshore, nomination approved date etc..?
