s56 requests for 04 Aug 2026: - To be updated

VIC 190 granted today, 4th August ๐Ÿฅณ General Practitioner and partner 85 points Points breakdown: Age: 30 English: 20 Overseas experience: 5 Australian experience: 5 Education: 15 Partner: 5 State nomination: 5 Timeline: - EOI submitted: 19th December 2025 - ROI submitted: 7th February 2026 (ROI later than EOI as we didn't realise it was a thing, we missed earlier invitation rounds we qualified for because of this ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ) - Primary applicant medical: 23rd February 2026 (needed for previous visa application) - ROI updated with increased salary: 1st March 2026 - Pre-invitation received: 17th March 2026, 10:45am - Nomination application submitted: 17th March 2026, 7pm - Nomination approved/ full invite received: 23rd March 2026, 1pm - Application lodged: 16th May 2026 - Secondary applicant medical: 18th May 2026 - Visa granted: 4th August 2026 Further info: - no s56 request - application never moved to 'processing'. Our immi account said 'received' from the day we lodged until the day it was granted - form 80 was submitted at lodgement to ward off potential s56 request - we submitted nomination application and visa lodgement with as much evidence as we had, more than they strictly needed, to prevent delays/ s56 request - we received a 189 invitation on 4th June, 2.5 weeks after we lodged our 190 application. I was gutted as 189s are granted quicker on average. But our GP friends who lodged for 189 from the same 4th June invitation round got their 189 grant only 9 days earlier than our 190 grant. So at least for GPs, there doesn't seem to be much of a time difference between the 2 visas! - just an FYI: you can apply for interim Medicare (which covers you the same as general Medicare) as soon as you've lodged your 190, you don't have to wait for a grant!
