Re: Current Processing Times (Part Two)
Just logged on to check our status page, didn't do it this morning and although they've not changed the logging on bit, getting to the page where you put your details in has changed - you've now got to select the visa type from a long list, which threw me a bit at first, but having selected the visa type it takes you to the login page we all love and hate

I'm not moaning but even if nothing has changed you know that, where we can't check anything.
Please Mr DIAC send all of us waiting our visas!!!

Re: Current Processing Times (Part Two)
After finding out there was an online facility we decided it seemed the easiest option. Any reason why didn't you apply online?
The status page can be as equally frustrating, i've read about quite a lot of people who were granted visa's but their status page never got updated. We may have a status page we can become obsessed about (I am and it's not a good thing!!), but it doesn't mean it can give us anymore information than paper based applicants, it may or it may not, and that's the killer When we applied to the ACS for OH's RPL, we couldn't track anything and i can honestly say that was the most stress free i've felt throughout this whole process. For me the status page has made it more stressful, constantly checking and finding nothings changed.
Think I should create a whinging pom status page thread

No idea, although i would've thought that they'd look as soon as they can rather than waiting for the deadline.
Good luck, you're almost there

Hi
From reading other threads I think that they usually wait until after the deadline before looking at your file again. There are some people on the October thread whose deadline was a few weeks ago but have still not heard anything.
On the other hand, occasionally, visa grants come really quickly after requesting extra docs so I think it may well be down to your own case officer.
Good luck, hope you hear soon
