Danihunt1980 Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hi everyone, We lodged a 176 visa a very long time ago now We passed the ilets, got state sponsorship and then lodged main application at end of June last year. We did our medicals on the 1st June and they were lodged a few weeks ago. We still haven't heard from them and I just wondered if anyone could advise how long this last bit takes? It feels like this is the worst bit. But I guess we are nearly there after a long 18 months. Thanks everyone!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyLeB Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Do you have a CO?? Did they request medicals and police checks. Do you know if your medicals have been referred or finalised. Can check on the online portal to what it says. If they have been referred it could take 3 months to finalise the medicals. If not, and have submitted police checks, it shouldnt be much longer to get grant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danihunt1980 Posted June 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hi, thanks for your reply DyLeB, we have a CO who requested us to provide further evidence of defacto relationship and the medicals and police checks. The medicals have come up online as finalised but the CO hasnt updated any information for ages even though they have had defacto and police checks for ages. Guessing they will update it all together. Do you get an email for the final answer or do they directly contact your agent first? Thanks again!

ashleymhale Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 If you have an agent then ask them to contact your CO and ask what the status of your application is. IT seems like you've been more than patient with the amount of time you've waited! Hope it all come s through quickly for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
