    @chabawamba Based sa data ng myimmitracker, same na same ang case sa 190 ng 489, wala pang grants ng mga lodgement date after nov 30. 91 cases ang naka lodge/co contact status ng prior to nov 30 tapos ang average grant rate per month is around 30, so kung magtutuloy yung trend hanggang next 2 months, yung mga nasa december magsisimula na siguro magprocess either end of april or early may. Pero disclaimer, based lang to sa myimmitracker.

    @RamDas108 sorry mali pala yung sinabi ko na 5 months magstart ang processing. Yung start is after 3 months and around 20-30% average sa 1st month. After 5 months, 75% ng applicants ang napprocess (edit:this is at least true for May-Oct 2018 visa lodges).

    Based on march data, eto ang grant rate for 190:
    Apr-92%
    May-93%
    Jun-89%
    Jul-94% (low number lodges)
    Aug-85%
    Sep-81%
    Oct-76%
    Nov-29%

    Most likely, ang december magsstart same lang din ng estimate ko sa 489 which is end of april or early may. Although medyo duda ako kasi 200+ applicants pa kasi prior to nov 30 ang hindi pa napoprocess so masmalaki ang backlog ng 190. Pero who knows, baka magbago uli... based lang kasi sa data tong info ko. Ang prediction ko sa sarili ko is around June pa ang earliest grant ko assuming masama ako sa unang batch na ipoprocess for January.

    @chabawamba Tingin ko din depende sa state at sa skill kung gaano ka-in-demand... meron kasi sa 190, feb nag lodge software engineer tapos 40days grant for NSW. ang hindi ko lang maintindihan eh meron naman mga 2018 nag lodge na software engineer for NSW din pero bakit mas nauna ang mga nasa feb although walang info regarding points. So ang isang factor na tinitignan ko eh yung case officer na nakaassign, depende din siguro kung gaano kakumpleto yung docs and yung profile or baka depende sa mood ng CO? LOL

    @chabawamba ayon sa mga nababasa ko, meron ka matatanggap ng "commencement" email meaning, meron na tumitingin ng application mo. Tapos nun, either direct grant or CO contact ka, may mga nababasa ako na talagang mabusisi na COs na maraming karagdagan pa hinihingi tulad ng mga PCC ng ibang bansa kung nag stay kayo dun and other employment docs. Meron naman mga pinapaulit ng form 80 kasi daw may mga hindi malinaw na info sa unang sinubmit. May nakita pa ako na tinawagan pa sya mismo diretso ng CO kahit naka agent sya tapos inulit lang mga tanong sa form 80. So meaning, pwede ibypass ng CO ang migration agent kaya watch out sa mga phones ninyo lalo kapag overseas ang number.

    Hello @tmasuncion

    Mayroong site na tinatawag na immitracker. Makikita mo ang overall stats and trend from that site. Since voluntary lang ang pag-sali sa site, it does not reflect the total picture but is good enough to have a feel of what is happening.

    As to your question on whether grants depend on skill or points, I also want to know. I have the same question. Anyone can share their opinion on this?

    @tmasuncion https://myimmitracker.com/en/au/trackers

    @mamertz Definitely, skill plays a big part on this kasi yun naman ang primary purpose ng pag accept nila ng migrants. I assume na inuuna nila ang mga skills na may extremely urgent need and matagal na vacant ang mga posts. I'm not sure about points though kasi dapat sa invitation process lang yun diba and expectedly irrelevant na ang points sa visa processing... Kaso naka tie-up parin ang skillselect account natin sa immiaccount so kita parin ng CO ang points kaya hindi natin masabi kung factor sya o hindi.

    @Butterfly8i8 baka dahil dito-
    https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/home-affairs-releases-visa-privatisation-details-right-before-election-20190405-p51bbl.html
    At isa pa baka may effect yung plan nung Oz gov't na bawasan mga immigrants sa major city like Sydney & Melbourne, diko sure if natuloy yun plan ng Oz gov't.

    @tmasuncion tama si sir @chigarcia, mukhang sa skills and hindi sa points. Yung wife ko 5years in the making para maka-85points pero mag 5months na wala pa kaming grant. Pansin ko mga Engineers ambilis ng grant nila..
