    it seems that DIBP is trying to finish the backlogs of application for 2016...

    Would the trend be like this for the rest of June?

    Lets hope for the best outcome.

    @Pinoy_Engineer Congrats. Isa rin ako sa napa basa agad ng signature. Hehe.

    May tanong po ako. Nag apply kayo as single. Hangang sa nag ka ITA. Then wedding. Pag lodge nyo ng application, sinama nyo agad si misis? Or separate processing Misis nyo?

    Sakin kasi, waiting pa ITA. July (hopefully). Tapos lodge ako visa. Pag uwi sa pinas on March, kasal, then April diretso na sana AU. Ang hindi ko pa masyado planado, pano maka sunod si misis smoothly. hehe. Any suggestion? Thanks

    Hi @Jan_ I think doesn't matter kung married or not during the EOI/ITA. Kasi skills migration point based yun, so credentials mo yun. It will only matter kapag Visa lodge in na.. dapat ma-include mo na... kung di pa kasal during the visa lodge, parang may procedure din.. so don't worry, everything will be alright.. :-)
    by the way, parang 60days ata after ITA dapat mag lodge na ata.. once lumampas ka sa time frame.. not sure what will happen.. they said they will just include you on the next round of invitation.. something like that.. apir!

    Nakita ko din yung processing time update. 7-13 months nga. Nakakapang-hina ng loob pero no choice naman tayo but to wait.
    Napansin ko din mga grants sa immitracker puro backlog nga.
    Sana by July bumilis ulit grants.

    @Strader meron din kami natanggap na ganito... sana malapit na.

    Strader said:

    hi guys. I received an0ther email from CO Lisa today. same lang sa email ni @rdi ..

    @wanderer ganito ba email mo nung na co contact ka? wala naman hiningi sa akin.. so today is my 2nd CO contact pero walang nirequest na docs.

    ano ba ibig sabihin ng email nato? dapat ba ako maworry?

    I am writing to you regarding the current status of an application for a General Skilled Migration (GSM) visa.

    GSM visas include applications for the following visa subclasses:
    · Skilled Independent (subclass 189); and
    · Skilled Nominated (subclass 190); and
    · Skilled Regional (subclass 489) – First Provisional Stream

    The processing of GSM visa applications is subject to both visa planning levels as expressed in the Migration Programme and priority processing arrangements affecting the order in which applications are processed.

    Migration Programme planning levels take precedence over priority processing arrangements and expected processing times and determine the maximum number of visas that can be granted in each visa category.

    There are a limited number of places available for GSM applicants for the 2016-17 programme year and therefore processing times will be longer for some visa applicants. Additionally once the remaining places are used we will be unable to grant further visas in this category in the current programme year.

    As the planning levels apply to all applications, including those in the final stages of processing, I cannot advise when this application will be finalised.

    Kind Regards,
    Lisa.

    @raquel13 actually sis yan din ang concern ko. Un samin naman hanggang september 16 lng dn nbi namin. Feb p kmi nag-lodge then co contact nun may 18 hingi dn form 815. Worry ko lng baka pag galawin n nman natin un immiaccount natin baka mag-reset na nman ng pag-count ng days. Hntay nlng cguro natin ma CO contact before provide bago. Kaya lang ang naiisip ko jan bka mapaaga un IED natin kung sakali mbgyan agad ng visa kasi baka dun nila i-base sa expiry date ng nbi clearance.
