Hello,
I am from d.o.l 15th jan 18.
Still waiting, all submitted, health clearance provided in medicare.
No news for the moment, wife moved 1 month ago to sydney as she got a job there. Family apart for the time being which makes it even more frustrating. 12 years married and 11 and 8 years old daughters with dual nationality australian/ spanish.
Fingers cross, hopefully not so long to get the grant

At the moment it looks like processing time can take from 13-17 months for 309 visa.
I hope yours will be granted soon.

Do you think they would provide the visitor visa to spend xmas in australia? our agency told us not to consider that option as it would delay the process of granting the visa.

that process time has changed about 12 times since we applied i even saw 22-24 months. So that process time is not exact. I have been also informed by the department itself that the process times only changes due to all the applications around the world. So that really doesnt help with anything or it doesnt give hope.

A very strange comment from an agency.
Odd indeed considering a few of the RMA's around here have said the opposite.

Ye I know. We were told that if we do apply because we have a visa awaiting the visitor visa may not be processed or even may be rejected and even if the visitor visa is granted the partner visa grant may talk longer than normal to be finalised. -_-
