Frustrated!!!
Having been waiting for ages and ages (it seems) for a glimmer of some sort of activity from Adelaide, I sent an email to the bloke handling my application to ask how things were going. I got a response within an hour!!!! It was an auto reply from his pc saying he's on holiday till the end of October!!!! How can they let them go on holiday for two months!!!!!!! 
Well, at least now I suppose I can just sit back and relax and forget all about it for a while. No point in stressing when I know nothing is going on. Oh my stress levels.... I'm sure I'm going prematurely grey over this whole thing.

They sure seem to take it easy there don't they?
When did you apply? I hope you don't have to wait too much longer.

Sorry Wanderlust but at least you can chill now till October. Mind you, you`d think that someone else would cover the work load of someone who is on holiday all that time.
Best of luck to all those waiting

..just a thought, but maybe he's really there and he's just hiding behind his auto-responder. Maybe he's just scared to download his email incase he gets a million emails asking how their case is going.... maybe.... or maybe he's just on a 2 MONTH HOLIDAY!!!! god i wish i could take a 2 month holiday. My boss moans when i have a week off! haha
Oh well, just put it to the back of your mind, and think of your case officer having to suffer his 2 month holiday....

Hi,
Had him ( thought it was a "her" all this while
) earlier, but we've heard from someone else. So just hope your case too has been transferred to another case officer.
