My 489 visa was family sponsored which allows me to live and work in any designated area of Australia. Whole Western Australia came under designated area thats why i was driving in Perth.

Can you please share your timeline...thanks

Experienced members reply please,

questions from a friend ,

- did anyone had to withdraw one of the family members from the application before?

- did it delay/affect the processing time of the rest applicants?

My bit - your friend will have to fill "change of conditions" and depending on who is not being part of the application department might ask few questions. I would recommend adding all the required back-up as in what is the reason of this change. Keeping in mind how CO's are working this might or not change timelines.

17 months is for people who need to provide additional docs... so pls do renew AFP and PCC when it’s close to expiry . But direct grant time frame is around 13-14 months. Still a very long wait though. Let’s see how it goes today

Happy for you 

but when you applied ?

Well they seem to be doing it faster than that anyway and at least it has not increased

No Necessary, I applied February 2018. Only contact was that my application was allocated, but not further documents were requested. I have lodged many complaints but the answer is that my application is withing the published processing time. For that reason, I was hoping the processing time was reduced but unfortunately it was not..

It has been there for a few weeks as long as I remember, might have been 15-16 months ?

They update it every month, for the previous month. This update is for month ending 30 April. I have noticed that there has been a big number of grants during May. I guess the update in June for month Ending 31st May would be reduced to 13-14 months, but we will need to wait 1 more to see it.

Just wanted to ask if someone saw the post.

Congratulations on your grant @Roja, enjoy your new life!!!  Could we ask who was the CO and also if there were children included in the application. If there was, what are their ages and did they have medicals done?

They published it every month. The processing time did not change but was updated yesterday.
