Unhappy Skilled Processing Times. Is it a lottery?

From other forums and news groups etc. It really does seem that it is a real lottery when it comes to getting your skilled independent visa processed. At the moment some people are receiving their requests for medicals in three months, some poor people have to wait nine months, some six and others over a year. Do they have a system in Adelaide or do you think it is just luck and it depends if you are lucky enough for them to pick up your file?

I guess I am not the only one who is getting in a real tizzy over it all. Don't they realise we all have to put our life on hold, not know if we are coming or going and try to plan the rest of our lives without knowing when it will start?




I feel better after my little gripe, but it still piddles me off.

Lottery oh yes.We were told 9 months when we applied this quickly grew to 20 months and are about to celebrate 23 months by putting our application on hold until our baby is born.Sorry but 9 months is a cakewalk!!
