Australian Skilled Independent Visa Processing Time

Hello Friends,

I am currently in UK and am planning to apply for my Australian immigration under the Independent Skilled Class from UK itself. Can you please let me know the processing time of the application if my occupation is on SOL?

Thanks in advance!

Express Processing from India

Hello Friends,

Hope you all are doing good!

Can you please tell me if there is any concept of express processing if applying from India?

I know that there is a "Same day" processing concept if you apply from UK, but, is the same possible if you apply from India?

Thanks Aruni, but the figures wouldn't match as the bank statement will only show net salary but I would have shown the gross salary.
wouldn't it be a problem?

Hello Friends,

Just to clarify - Why do we need to show bank statements for salary proofs? Can't we only produce salary slips for salary proofs?

Thanks in advance!

By the looks of it, it seems that it is only possible to apply in person from the UK. People from outside UK cannot apply in person from their respective countries - am I right?
