Your 888A application is currently within the standard 4 to 8 month processing window. Since you lodged in September 2025, you are right on track; there is no need for concern, and you should continue to wait patiently. If the timeframe exceeds 9 months, that would be the appropriate time for your migration agent to contact the Department for an update. Since you have already secured Victorian state nomination, the most difficult hurdle is over. The Department is now simply verifying your documentation against the stipulated requirements. Because your agent has confirmed your compliance regarding turnover, investment, and management, your visa will be granted once these routine checks are finalized.
