Processing Time for Subclass 475 (Skilled-Regional Sponsored)

[floydanglo]

Hi,

Newbie here... I would like to know if what is the processing time for a 475 Application (Priority 4). Application was lodged at DIAC at November 2008.

I saw on some recent threads for Priority 3, it will be around 18-24 months, does it mean it will take around 24-36 months for a Priority 4 before it will be processed?

Thanks in advance!
