Hi,

we're also going on 138 sub class sponsored visa and application arrived in adelaide on Monday 27th feb. We're not on modl so could we be looking at a year from now? You dont need me to tell you how desparate we are to move. we were out for a holiday over xmas and new year staying with our relatives and absolutely fell in love with the place. Any answers would be appreciated.

Mrs JFW

ooohhh.......Is that 6 months from them receiving application or 6 months from getting a case officer. Its just I am hoping to send off visa application at end of March and would like to have a visa before November! cos I want to go on holiday then and validate it!!

Our Agent emailed us this week to tell us that she just had a positive Visa application( MODL 136 Visa) through in 3 months!!..although she told us its not saying ours will take that long(we're also on a MODL 136) but it's a good time line

Mrs JFW

How cool would that be?

we were told by our agent about three months ago (before we applied) that they were coming back (136 MODL list) in about three or four months.

Wendy

It's about that long to the med request. It takes around 5 months to get the visa grant. Sometimes longer.

sparks124

not if you send the meds and PC before there requested and your application paper work is in order.

Wendy

True, although you've also to consider that the regions are working at different speeds too.

Some have a much quicker turnaround time than others. I think that's what makes it all so bad, cos you've got no real timeframe to go on. If you're in x region you get it in 3 - 4 months but if you're unlucky enough to be put in region y then you're looking at 5 - 7 month.


It's all poo!!

(sorry having a crap week and totally fed up )

sparks124

at the end of the day the bl**dy thing turns up when they decide. all you can go on is past time lines and allow a bit either way.

Wendy

Yep, that's what I was trying to say, in a woman round about way

Anyway, hows other plans going?? Do you have to sell house or are you sensible and have already got rid?

sparks124

house is on the market as from mid Jan and have 4/5th viewing tomorrow .
still fingers crossed

Wendy

At least you're getting some viewings. I hope they put a good offer in for you. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

I've had three viewings

One had already put an offer in on another house

One didn't show

The others offered £2k under asking price, we agreed sale then 2 days later they pulled out.

Haven't heard anything for nearly 2 weeks now.

sparks124

it's been about 2 weeks since our last viewing and haven't had any offers as yet
it's on the market for a good price, well that's what everyone keeps saying
still the spring is round the corner so the market should start to improve. there are a few sold boards going up around here.

Wendy

Hopefully you are right. I've noticed quite a few sold signs here too. I think it makes it worse cos then you think well why aren't they looking at my house.

Think I may change agents. Mine didn't even have an ad in the paper today
