How long now?

[Guest 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

[Guest LukeM]

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

 

[Guest LukeM]

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

Twice as long as it is from the end to the middle.

Smart a**

Well that was helpful.

Well that was helpful.

 

What??? You want help and humour??? Cor, talk about have your cake and eat it.

 

We have a 175 we applied online 27 / 10 / 07 and it was granted 6 and a half months later on 12 / 05 / 08. I was going to say on the earlier post but had to look it up.

 

As for meds and PCs we pre loaded so they were never asked for. We had a CO appointed on 6 / 3 / 08 so that would be when you would be asked to do them.

 

Good luck hope the wait isn't too long.
