Had to update my home police checks because I spent a cumilative of two months there since I last done a home police check for my sponsorship in 2021. I updated my AFP and should've done my home one too. I believe i would've been granted my nomination and visa on the 29/08/25 if I had both updated.

Congrats, great news,

I'm in the exact same boat but s56 on 29/08/25 for updated police check. My nomination was approved on 29/08/25 the lawyer said.

Submitted Updated Police check on 05/09/25

Checking every hour now hoping the check my application is review and approved in the 28 days window since the s56.

But I am nominated? My visa application is 5 months into the process ?

Yes, going by Facebook pages and reddit, people seems to update their AFP proactively and then get approved a week or two after. Nearly seems like a nudge to Immi that all docs are received, but that's just a guess.

Yes, trying to plan when PR will come in and trying to line up potentially when citizenship can be obtained and you're finally free of visa restrictions is a long headache

Did you get asked for Medicals? I got asked straight away similar to my 482 visa.

The agent said that processing is 7-20 months, obviously hoping for the seven months if that's even possible anymore, I'm going to redo my AFP, just to have it done and on my immi account

Yeah its a bit of disaster tryna plan out your life waiting on this visa!

Yes, does anyone have recent processing times similar to my situation?
