CO 28 day request.
We had 28 days to give our CO the final bits to complete our visa application before they can make a decision shown below:
If you have not replied within 28 days of first receiving a request for this information, a decision may be made on your visa application based on all the information available to the Department at that time.
Does this mean they will make a decision on our visa within the 28 days? or is it like everything and take them ages?

Re: CO 28 day request.
No, it means they are giving you 28 days in which to get the extra information to them and if you dont then they may base their desicion on the info they have (basically they are saying if u dont have the info we want in 28days then we 'could' base on on what we have - and obviosuly they need more info or they wouldnt have asked, so its a slightly veiled threat really- i.e they could deny u visa as they dont have all info)
But No once they have it the decision probably wont be made in 28 days, we had the exact same letter as you and we sent info off staright away but our visa were granted about 2 months later.
I live near you, i am in hullbridge..lol i leave on the 21st nov for sydney!!!!!

Re: CO 28 day request.
great news rockect
congrats and best of luck.
however 28 days time means we as the applicant need to fulfill their all said requirements in 28 days anyhow if we need to take leave from job then we need to take whatever the situation may be at our work place but we must fulfill their all said requirements in 28 days.
we must be punctual no matter after that 28 days they may take 14 months to finalize the application but they expect us to be punctual.

Re: CO 28 day request.
no i dont dislike actually but i want to tell 2 stories here.
i) my one friend got refusal in july 08 because he was not able to send IELTS result within 28 days. his another qual & skills were ok and CO told him she just wanted IELTS but after 28 days she refused his application.
ii) another friend is still waiting after 8 months of his med & pcc, ielts submission. co gave him 28 days but its over 8 months no result yet, they are doing routine checking.
whats u r expert opinion about both above cases? sorry in advance if mistake in my english .

Re: CO 28 day request.
now this is just stupid.
What Polly said applies to your number 1 as well and to sum what you describe up is a disrespect for the rules. Number two is no appreciation for the rules that the Case Officers as any other public servants have to follow.
