It means that they are working on those points now - they will have done a complete check of it to make sure all the information they need is there. Now they will process that information and then ask you to go for a medical. Sometimes further information (or fees) can be requested at the medical request stage - though this is usually just for out of date police checks or more information relating to criminal past.

Blimey. This ECAS thing is awkward. Have banged in relevant receipt numbers etc and doesnt recognise it yet - which may well be because we are not on the system yet. I handed in the app on 2nd August 2010, so been nearly 3 weeks - am guessing this is gonna take a month or so just to appear on the system.

Without tempting fate - does anyone know what happens if you miss some info or they want clarity - do you effectively get pack returned and an extension to complete missing parts? Hopefully they cant then assess you under the revised system etc....? The trouble with the incessant wait is the doubt grows.

What is your time line - are you under the new processing (after 26th June) or after?

We are pre-June 26th. I hope this is good!

Hi

I could get into ECAS once I was at the 120 day email stage, so not sure if it is waiting for a London update before you are on there. I'm pre June 26th too.

One thing is that I select England as place of birth not UK or Britain - that seems to have stumped some people before.

So you should have a file number from CIO Sydney? It is probably the country that is causing the problem as you should be on ECAS by now.

OK guys

Tried it again with England and got through - shows as "review complete" which I assume means nobody here in London has got to it yet.

Thankyou

Thanks Amy. What would I do without you.

Is that a pretty accurate estimation of how long the med requests will take given that things have slowed down in comparison to this time last year? I guess Im thinking of a couple of posters that have waited ages for med requests.
I just dont want to get my hopes up....LOL

AmyDavid

That is how they have been for the last yearish - I have not yet noticed a change - but will let you do as and when one happens!

Guess I am looking at stokseys timeline and panicking!!! AOR Jan and no med requests yet.
Thanks so much, you have really reassured us.
