[onyiking]

Hi my fellow waiters lol , Good evening from Brazil .
So we all know how hard it is to wait so I opened this thread for people who has applied for residents Visa based on partnership this year or late last year to share timelines . I guess this will help us at least a little to estimate our waiting period and help us calm .
Offshore - Online Application
Submitted / Applied : 20/03/2019
Payment the same day : 20/03/2019
Honestly , I am not expecting any CO atleast until December lol.

I applied onshore.

Applied: January 7th 2019
Money taken: January 7th 2019

Nothing since...

My visa runs out in 2021 so I have plenty of time to sit and wait. Good job really -_-

Hey Magicpizza,Hoping you get a Co soon and keep this thread updated. Good luck

Have just had confirmation from the Immigration Manager of the team in Hamilton that processes Partnership Resident visa applications and they are currently allocating applications to CO's that were lodged in early December - no exact date sorry. So it seems that it's taking them a little over 4 months to allocate from lodgement currently. This has sped up a bit recently.

Your case may already have been allocated to a CO. Not all COs routinely announce themselves, but just start working.

Oh OK jandm but I called immigration 2 days ago the call center says I have no CO yet did they also don't have updates regarding that?

Sorry Ranjodh, I should have specified that they are allocating online applications that were lodged in early-December. Paper-based applications are slower and they're only up to early November of paper applications - so you may still have 3-4 weeks to wait yet sorry.
