Is there anyone here that had to leave because their visa ended and applied as an offshore candidate? Did yous receive invite/got a grant ?
@alpesh2911 1Y ago
I am priority occupation offshore and January 2025 lodgment. NSW Nomination. Yet the status is received. When should I expect the grant?
@sillykangaroo3297 1Y ago
Is there any chance of visa rejection after s56 for remedicals if the medicals are cleared ? I mean do they ask for more information after remedicals ?
@user1221 1Y ago
Visa doesn't get rejected if your medicals are all cleared. Just ensure everything else is correct and up-to-date.

@biotechy What will be my "Usual country of residence" in EOI (skill select) when I travel to Australia in a Visitor Visa? Do I need to change the "Usual country of residence" from my home country to Australia if I am physically present in Australia on Visitor VISA?
@biotechy 1Y ago
on visitor visa it will not be australia, it will be where you normally live.
@sukhnam 1Y ago

@sukhnam 1Y ago
Waiting period is long but it will be fruitful i guess.
@samzeen 1Y ago
Yes, Indeed ๐
@rossinathm 1Y ago
Really frustating. Why canโt they grant in order? They starting grating for march application and again left us behind with s56 request
@sukhnam 1Y ago
There's is nothing we can do, just we can wait. ๐
@samzeen 1Y ago
Yes its very unfavorable on older applications side
@sukhnam 11M ago
Really frustrating, older files they are not looking at that.
@user1221 1Y ago

@juttjutt 1Y ago
Why 189 grants so slow not moving beyond 11 dec Lodgements since last 2 weeks offshore are doomed

@gregormendel Hi Sir, could you also create a post combined for upcoming Sat and Sun similar to the daily activity posts. Just incase if some are getting grants on weekends, could share them as well. Thanks.
@gregormendel 1Y ago
done for Sat (today)
@aman1986 1Y ago
How much time department usually take for grant visa after submitting the s56 requirement
@werewolf 1Y ago
not fixed ..some get same day some not even after 4 months
@aman1986 1Y ago
But in total how much time to grant visa after submitting the visa application
@manmohansinghvirdi 1Y ago
It all depends on the information asked in s56. If it's remedicals only, then it should be quick.
@sukhnam 1Y ago
No, after re - medical it also take time. As we are also waiting from 20 days after re medical.
@nuttykangaroo4398 1Y ago

@gregormendel hi Is there a separate group for 491 family sponsered? Does 491 family sponsored follow grant pattern of 491 state sponsered?
