Trends and Patterns
Visa Processing Times
Two Subclass 189 direct grants were reported today, both lodged in late August 2025. The General Practitioner case (priority occupation) received grant within approximately 2.5 months, while the ECT case (priority occupation) also received grant within the same timeframe. Both applicants reported uploading comprehensive documentation at lodgement to avoid S56 requests.
Key Observations
Both successful applicants emphasised the importance of uploading complete evidence at lodgement. The ECT applicant specifically noted not claiming Australian work experience but ensuring all overseas experience was thoroughly documented. The General Practitioner applicant similarly highlighted prompt document updates to avoid S56 requests.
