    Default How long til the visa application gets accepted for processing?

    Hi all

    My wife's visa will expire on 6 May (partnership work visa). I am right now waiting for a decision on my residency with her included in the application. It is impossible now that we've got the resident before her visa runs out.

    We just applied for another partnership work visa last Thursday (26 April). That was the day we posted the application. Usually how long would it take for the application to be accepted for processing and interim visa being granted? Would it be the day they receive the application in their mail? I'm getting quite anxious now that we still haven't got the interim in the mailbox.......

    Guess it's worth giving INZ a call if no good news in the mailbox today....

    Thanks

    I did call them. They were saying they are right now 'opening' applications picked up on 26 April. Mine actually was delivered a day later (27 April). So if things are progressing as it is.... it should be 'looked' at tomorrow hopefully.

    Did you do it online or was that the date you dropped off/posted your app?

    Good on you :-)

    The application you dropped off on 26 April, was that a work visa based on partnership?

    Even though you sent in the paper application, would it also appear on your immigration online account for you to check its status and so on??

    Thanks

    It gives very basic status these days - no details.

    Thanks guys. Wish they could have allowed a complete online application just like other work visa streams.

    What I am concerned the most now is whether or not the application will be accepted for processing in time (reads: by Friday). Will just keep bugging the call centre on that. Nothing much can be done.

    Once its lodged, then you dont need to worry. Im pretty sure yours was lodged already as we submitted the application the same time ������ ask them for your online account so u can always check it . Cheers
