No official movement for the past 5 weeks
Hi All:
Same as the title, are they waiting for the official report of commonwealth budget 2008-2009? or they finally decided to finalise all 136 application first?
Anyway, I lodged my 175 application (paper/ACS/no MODL/low-risk country) on 18 Nov and still waiting for my CO to be allocated.....
I have lots of planning for this christmas....
Hopefully they can speed up a bit the coming week... fingers crossed for all applicants...
Cheers
Ryan

I can assure you applications are moving. We have had a subclass 176 application lodged on 05/11/2007 granted this morning.
Best regards.

It was an e-lodged application.
Paper applications submitted to the ASPC are likely to take much longer to process to a decision.

PS. The application I mentioned above was for a client - not sure whether you know that I am a migration agent!
