Timeline / Events - 25 Mar 2026 * TAS491 * 95 pts * Visa Granted Alhamdulillah, 491 granted today. Very thankful for how far I have come. A few more years to permanent residency now, and inshaAllah I will continue studying further in the fIeld I am truly passionate about. It took me 9.5 years to reach this stage. It has been a long journey with a lot of lessons, patience, setbacks, and growth. I always tried to do things the right way, but looking back, the biggest thing I lacked was proper planning. If anyone has followed my story, my biggest advice is this: Time is everything. Make decisions on time. Do not rely blindly on states. Strategise your visa properly and always have a Plan B. Things can change very quickly in Australia. Policies change, state priorities change, occupations move, and opportunities can close before you realise it. So do not waste time, do not get too comfortable, and do not assume things will work out on their own. Plan early, stay informed, keep improving yourself, and move with purpose. One good decision at the right time can save you years. - 24 Feb 2026 * TAS491 * 95 pts * Submitted Documents to comply with s56 Request for Further Information (RFI) from Visa Case Officer Polio certificate provided for main and secondary applicant - 23 Feb 2026 * TAS491 * 95 pts * Received s56 Request for Further Information (RFI) from Visa Case Officer S56 received Polio Vaccination Certificate - 15 May 2025 * TAS491 * 95 pts * Completed Visa Medicals Completed medical appointment - 11 May 2025 * TAS491 * 95 pts * Booked Medicals for Visa - 02 May 2025 * TAS491 * 95 pts * Submitted Visa Application In December, I thought everything was over. Everything I had worked for over the past eight years seemed to be going down the drain, and I felt like I had no options left. But then I came across my current migration agent, who mentored me throughout this journey, and within four months, I was able to secure an invitation.

All thanks to Allah Almighty. One important takeaway: always make the best of your situation. The grass isnT always greener on the other side. At one point in my life, I would have never been happy with “just” a 491 visa, but after everything I’ve been through, the 491 feels like a blessing. Now, I’m in the queue with others, waiting for the grant and the rest of the visa process. - 01 May 2025 * TAS491 * 95 pts * Received State Nomination Approval Received nomination confirmation and invitation to apply for 491 after 3 days of application.
