jacky
when you were asked for meds and police checks were you told who your case officer was, or was they just requested
thanks

Hi Michelle, we received an e-mail from our agent which enclosed the letter he had received from diac and it also told us the name of our case officer.

Hope that helps :)

I think you or your agent, if u used one, should contact DIAC as Kazozz just mentioned the aspc email says they're processing visas up to 19 sept, so you should have heard from them by now.

Hi Kazozz, I'm getting pretty addicted to this site now hoping to hear that things are moving in my direction! I'm trying to stay positive and just go with the flow but its soo hard, i feel like ours lives have been put on hold and we're just in limbo land

Hi, you are not alone. There are some thousand more applications still waiting and sitting in the same boat. HR or LR should not affect the CO assignment. Only afterwards things move differently.
But I think Commonwealth countries or at least British applicants surely get a higher processing priority than the rest of the world.
As this forum here is mainly "British" based, the picture we see here might not reflect the entire situation of other countries.

Well here we are, another week and still not a flippin thing:(
No movement on the processing info e-mail again(no real surprise there):mad:
Just don't believe it will ever happen, every day the same wait and tommorrow will be the same and the day after that too:(
Sent an e-mail to diac asking for status and we got the usual reply that we have an agent please refer all questions to them.:mad:

Dear Sir/Madam

Thank you for your e-mail about your visa application under Australia’s
General Skilled Migration program.

As you have nominated a migration agent/authorised contact to act on your
behalf please be kind enough to direct any further communication with this
office through them.


Does it really hurt if someone just picked up your file and let you have a slight insight as to what is happening??:unsure:
Seems they are quite willing to take our money and very quickly, but unwilling to talk to you.
Gonna start charging them interest, should get a good return as in almost three months time it will have been a year!!
Anyway moan over, thankyou for listening!;)

Maybe we should start to think like an aussie with their "she'll be right" attitude ;)
But I wish they'd get their bums into gear!
