Default ACS appeal timelines

Hi there, ACS rejected my skills assessment 13 weeks ago and i submitted an appeal right away. It's now been 12 weeks since they received it. I have emailed them twice and have had no response. Can someone advise me on what to do now? I have my own deadlines for my visa application and finding the whole process very unreasonable and very frustrating.

Cheers

Where are they based, do you have a phone number for them!? Just an idea...and I agree, 12 weeks is a bit out of order!!!

From their FAQ:
46. How long does an appeal application take?

As a guide, appeal process generally takes approximately 4-6 weeks to complete, however this can take longer at the Deputy Director’s discretion.
I agree with Jen that you should give them a call and ask what is going on. Perhaps some other poster on BE can tell you how long their appeal took.

ACS telephone number: +61 2 9299 3666

I hope you obtain the result you need.

Cheers,
Sylvia

Thanks guys. i have been reluctant to call up to now in fear of jeopordising my appeal but at this stage it's getting to become a joke. To add insult to injury the reason for the rejection was that they made mistakes of my initial letter, admitted the mistakes but would not fix the time scales and so i had to appeal...anyway.....ummmmmm...(trying to be calm)
