I know its tough that you've been waiting for so long however no where does the department state that all applications will be completed within "X" amount of time. If they did, you would definitely have grounds for a complaint. Edited May 6, 2019 by boo-yaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you change to Analyst Programmer, you would risk a delay (nomination would need to be re lodged) and risk of refusal (as to why you changing nomination for the same applicant). I strongly recommend you to apply with the occupation same as your skill assessment by acs. They recognize them different occupations through development environment is similar.

If you want to make a complaint to immigration there is a link on their website. I have heard that they do not appreciate complaints regarding processing times - and in turn this just wastes their 'valuable' attention away from visa processing. I have know of many people that have complained - none of which received a response or any progress on their visa. I know it is dis-heartening in waiting, especially when you see people who applied after you get granted - it is unfair and no one truly knows in what sequence they are working. Try not let it be on your mind everyday - try to be positive your time will come 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Beingme, I totally feel your pain. This wait is excruciating, but Hex is right. I spoke with the Department a few weeks ago regarding my application and they advised that they don't have capacity to accelerate a case until it hits double the posted processing time. So, in my case that wouldn't be for another 8 months... It is so hard to do, but I really recommend just trying to live your life and ignore this frustrating wait. Think about the things you enjoy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sevka Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Hi Everyone, we have sent to CO the requested document on 5April for 186 visa Direct stream. Some people say that my application may go back to the pool. Not sure how it is correct. Based on your experience and observations, how long on average it takes from CO to act. I have applied end of November 2018 and additional document was requested on 1st of April and provided by the company on 5th of April. Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
