Can i suggest e-mail, when I was checking on certain items having arrived safely I e-mailed my case officer just ensuring the information was everything she needed, I always got a response within 48 hours. The only time I phoned DIMIA I was fobbed off and never got through to my CO, this was a couple of years ago so it might have changed, but good luck I remember the frustration only too well. :) |
Re: HELP trying to ring DIMIA!!!
Well I think I tried about 15 times and did do the 2 and 0 thing, but then it would ring and then just cut off!! So gave up, think I will go down the email route and then if nothing will try to ring again!!

Go for it, I was really nervous for some really strange reason, not that sort of person normally!! But no need to worry, Lady said to me that is what they are there for, to ring if you have questions or worries!! Could of kept her talking for ages if she really wanted to hear ALLLLLL my worries!! :D |
Re: HELP trying to ring DIMIA!!!
Just phoned and got through 2nd try.I think I got the same nice lady who gave me my ref. no. and sounded a bit concern that there was no movement on our case so she suggested emailing ASPC to try and find out more.
Just emailed. Good luck everyone. Mick |

I didn't get good news though, we are applying for a 138 visa and they are only up to June on those at the minute :scared: apparently. He said ours would be another few weeks! What is a few weeks? 2? 4? more? As our application got there mid September I think we could be waiting till June to hear anything :( Bit fed up now. Shirley x |

Just a quick update. Phoned DIMIA last night and spoke to a very helpfull lady who gave us our reference number and told us that we are region 3. She was however concerned that we had had no movement so gave us the email address for region 3 and we sent them an email also. Anyway got a fast reply and was told that we will be allocated a case officer on Thursday and that we should hear something in 2 weeks. For anyone interested we are 136 MODL. sent application 17 Aug acknowledged 9 sept and we are in region 3. Will let you know more when I do. Georgina |

Thanks for your concern, its a bit lonely all this waiting. Georgina |

Thanks for your concern, its a bit lonely all this waiting. Georgina I know, it's awful. I'm so glad I found BE I think I would have gone mad without it. At least you know you are not alone, close friends and relative's just don't really understand how much this process takes over your life. You know where we all are if you're feeling fed up. |
