Re: Current processing times

Certified copies of everything go with your application. Use the DIAC checklist to be confident you are on track.

Re: Current processing times

Yeah they let you know so you can leave. Although I think the ETA is for 3 months so you might have to pop in and out more than once anyway - I reckon it's worth it. Better to be in limbo here!...

Re: Current processing times

Re: Current processing times

Can't figure out why the sponsored visa, which surely requires more legwork, would be so far ahead of the straightforward one. Maybe there are far fewer 176 applications?

Doesn't make sense that the visa with LESS paperwork has the later processing time.

Re: Current processing times

Re: Current processing times

The client DIAC Charters says 12 months - that's the official line, everything else is really a guess - most are done earlier than that, but that's is the official timeline for an offshore PR visa.
