You might have heard that “Good things take time.” You can’t just expect good things to happen in the blink of an eye. So, if you have applied for Australia PR, you need to be patient as good things come to those who wait. Well, there are three main visa subcategories that will lead towards the path of obtaining the permanent residency status of Australia and that are, Skilled independent visa subclass 189, skilled nominated visa subclass 190 and skilled work regional visa subclass 491.
Each of the following visa subcategories has a different processing time. It can be said from the past estimates that visa 190 is processed faster than the visa 189. As per the current processing times, it takes around 6.5 to 8 months in the case of 190 visas and somewhere around 8 to 9 months when it comes to 189 visas. You can see that the processing time is less for a 190 visa as compared to 189 one.

What you can do is to ensure smooth processing of the entire Australian PR application, make sure that you don’t submit improper documents as they are a major cause of delay, if submitted incomplete. The two key documents that you need to submit are, a positive skills assessment report and the results of your IELTS language proficiency test. The second thing that you need to keep in mind is making sure that you meet all the eligibility requirements, no matter the visa subclass you are applying for.
