I've been waiting 18 weeks for a CO now. Nomination approved in Nov and application lodged mid Jan - seriously at the end of my tether now

CO was assigned on my case almost after 30 weeks, so 18 weeks is still fine, I think. And, no decision until now. No idea why

Hi Guys,

I just received the most precious email in my life!
My ENS 856 visa has been granted.

Timeline:

Application lodge: 16/02/2010
Visa Granted: 07/06/2010
HR Country
Occupation: Computing Professional (ASCO 2231-79)

I've been calling DIAC once a week to ask for update and always hearing the same answer saying "still in process" and no CO yet.

Special thanks to BE!

I'd talked to my employer and we are both surprised because nomination/visa approval are in the same date. I used 131xxx number in calling DIAC.
