Congrats to all got PR!!

I send a mail to NSW PESE a while ago and got a reply with no useful information.

they said

"We are experiencing temporary delays due to an unprecedented increase in
applications received through this office and we process all applications
in order of date of lodgement and in line with general processing
requirements. This ensures that all visa applicants are processed in a fair
manner.
".

But if how do we verify it?. from what I see in the google doc its not justifying the above statement.


:curse:

When I got that same message I replied to it asking for some more info.
I asked some specific questions like CO allocation and Nomination approval.

Got a proper response...still a bit vague but from a human being.

U could try that.

Good luck to us all!

I called again today (I'm getting impatient haaaaaa! )

The customer service girl said that my application is being assess and that they will contact me if anything is needed.

I want to know what 'being assess' mean!!!!!!! It's a mystery...

martin brisbane

do u have an immigration agent if so ,pls dont call immigration.
i got my nomination approved yesterday .my agent told me not to call immi, if so immi will remove my agent from my application,i got shocked...............

leo-oel

My guess...

U already got a CO...he's looking at your stuff as we speak.
U'll get ur PR next week or the following one.......

boulam51

I like your guess ;-)!

Christmas is coming, I wish that many of us that have been waiting for a while to get it before the new year. Who knows how slowly it will get at DIAC from mid-december to mid-january.

Wouldn't it be nice if today was THE day??????

10 months and no PR yet

I too wish today is the day… It would be fabulous and comparable to winning lotto if I get it in a week....I'm going on holiday for a month and nothing can be a perfect gift than PR at this moment to me.

Hi all,

I've been a lurker here since January 2007 when my move to Oz first started.

Just wanted to let you know that I got my 856 granted yesterday.

6 weeks and 5 days after lodgement.

No migration expert involved. No further questions from immigration. Did it all myself and it was a very expedient process.

I was going to post some thoughts and opinions as to how I did it as they might be helpful, but I may get flamed for it, so if anyone has any questions please drop me a PM.

Its been a long, stressful and worrying time, but it's now done.

Cheers

Matt

UHUUUUUU...PR is next!

Good luck to us all!!!!!!

Congrats to those got PR and Nominations..


Leo-oel, do you know when you got a CO assigned?. I applied a week before you and so may be someone might have dusted off my file also (hoping so)


Good luck to all of us on queue..

leo-oel

I called them last week on Wed I think.
I had no one assigned at that time.

It probably happened sometime this week...

Keep up hope!!!

Jenx

Nice one Leo_oel! Knew it was coming.... gv_, yours is surely being dusted! Looking good!!

Hi everyone

How long does it take for the 856 application to be finalised? It's been 3 months since providing all documents and still no word. Is it just the slowness of beurocracy or are they really doing any active work and assessment ? They dont say anything and you just wait and wait...

thanks
