Will there be any invitation rounds for NSW this year before Christmas?
there is one this week as per their announcement.
this week for 190
I mean a proper round of invitation, this week's one is just 200 priority ones, where hardly people get any chance..

@gregormendel We can see that May '24 190 applicants have started receiving grants. Given that there is not much backlog after this, can be hopeful that Nov 24 applicants can start receiving grants before the year end or early Feb '26?
from May to Oct will be quick, based on backlogs
Thanks @biotechy, safe to assume my timeline is a good approx?
No one can tell you what's safe to assume. All of these projections are speculative. But with 3000-3500 grants per month starting October it's highly likely that most of the Nov 24 (myself included) applicants will get their visas this calendar year as the backlog as of end of September (speculatively, assuming ~2500 grants in Sep) should be around 10000-10500 applicants.
Will there any invitation rounds for NSW this year ?
Indeed @zanysquirrel8433, if we get this months FOI data, will paint a much better picture of the actual scenario.
Received S56 for Remedicals today DOL 2 May 2024 190 VIC OFFSHORE (IN)
May I know the date of your initial medical exam?
@bunnychitangle did they generate a new hapid ? What does the medical section in immi look like? Mime says no action required even though S56 says medical (and employment proofs).
@snappychicken8915 initial medical was on 14 May 2024
bunny, added. Please add s56 entry to your timeline too. Helps others.
