SmartVisaGuide Users Waiting for 189 Grant (7 Nov 2024 round...

I dont think it's exactly true. As ECT I think you should receive grant within 8 weeks, whereas some of the non-priority ones who might have even lodged before you, might have to wait longer.

They are processing FIFO so I have no hope apparently 😂 thanks for your reply Gregor.

I think it broadly should, and it also lines up with intuitions

I made a post cautioning on this: "From here we will see 189 processing time gradually rising to 6 months+, mainly affecting those applicants who received invites in Nov round and did not "promptly/quickly" lodged their visa." https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1E9GUiNx6H/

Damn, I applied on 18th of Nov and regretting the fact that I didn't lodge earlier. It doesn't seem to matter even if you're in a priority occupation. 😢

Ah ! You are ECT. Dont stress, you will get grant this FY, likely within next 8 weeks.

Oh hopefully, Thanks for the reply!

We have had some discussions (in our Facebook and Whatsapp groups) on this: for now, we believe we capture around 5% on average, potentially as high as 10% sometimes (of all thats out there)

so 1:20 baseline (and 1:10 on optimistic note)

Using date filters + event type == Visa Grant here, one can count how many visa grants in SVG database and compare that to grants reports in FOI data. This can give a good idea of the capture ratio.

Note FOI primary applicant numbers have to be compared (not total which includes secondary too)

Good insight. And yes, I regularly use svg to get grant count per day to have an idea about actual grants which may have taken to anticipate my turn.

We are going to deploy a feature (in user profile) soon which will do some of this for you, drawing on the characteristics on the SmarVisaGuide pool.

@gregormendel Nice, so based on this can I check how many of the June applicants have been granted via Database filters greg? Also, I kind of found a glitch in your new platform, so if I am filtering a user who has been waiting for Visa and select only occupation and subclass, it will show me each event of the same user individually, Made me feel there are a lot of people waiting for the same occupation, until I went in one of the events to find out its the same user over and over again. Hope it helps.

its not a glitch, the event title on each card will be different. Its because each event is a separate event on a separate date. Each card shows one event. You can filter by event type to make it one card per user.
