How long now?

[LukeM]

Hi

Got positive skills assessment confirmed today by the ANMC, and our agents have sent the forms to us for the Visa application and requested any final documents to be sent back with those as soon as possible. We've also paid slightly over 1 3rd of the total payments required (£550 out of £1500)

So once we have returned said forms, in the current situation how long do you reckon that it will take for Immigration to request meds and police checks once they have the forms?

Is there any hope we could have the visa organised and in our hands by December 15/16th?? If so we're really sorted then!!!

Thanks,
Luke.

From we lodged till getting requests for med/pc it took 6 months
then further 5 months till we got the visa

Damn. So basically it could be up to July next year before we get anything?!

It seems to depend on your visa type
Ours is Temporary 496 Skilled

Ah right well we're going the 175 Skilled (Permanent) route... any ideas?
