This shows that it’s a myth that a valid passport is always required before a visa grant. Every case is different, but in our case, the grant came through without it.

Ministerial Direction 119 has been released and supersedes direction 105, and now gives categorically higher priority to onshore applicants. Read more here

@biotechy @gregormendel With the new 119 direction in effect, as a 491 offshore, non-priority applicant, lodged application in July 2025, should expect further delay as now offshore non-priority has become "No proirity"/"we dont need you, we already got your money" applicant?
