Passing medical and waiting for a final decision?

[Guest KarenR]

Hello

Does anybody have any experience of how long it will take for the final decision to be made in reference to applications?

I had my medical approved on the 31st Jan from Sydney and have been told by my migration officer my application has to go back to the Adelaide Processing Centre for a final decision to be made on whether I will be granted a visa or not. However, she has said she is unable to give me a duration until I know. Can anybody help with how long it took for their final decision to be made after passing their medical? Was it a week, 2 weeks, a month or more?

This is taking into account that it has taken 18 months to get to this stage of my application and I don’t understand why when I look and talk to other people about time lines of their applications.

Thank you in advance

Karen

Hi... what visa are you going for?

Hi there,

Thanks for the quick reply, I've applied with a Skilled Independent Regional (SIR) Provisional Visa, Subclass 495.

Thanks again and any time scale would be great
