When you all say your checking your online status are you going to the Document Checklist page? or is there another page I am just curious because I know others have said that nothing changes in there application but I have required and message on these sections and have had for over 20 plus days now. Just curious to know if there is another area where i check prgress?
It would appear that the status is updated manually by a case officer as and when they are able/satisfied. I am using an agent for my process and have been told to not be concerned due to lack of updates to the page as it is a manual process and to be assured that it is being worked on at the correct time. I think that I read somewhere that one person had a visa grant before the web page was updated to reflect it.
I just wanted to say the news that the docs were marked as "met".

Yes - it is the document checklist page that I am looking at.

Does anyone know, once a state offers to sponsor you, how long have you got to accept it? Is there a time limit?

Nothing changed with me i'm afraid, am now at the stage of forgetting the whole thing and moving on with my life here, don't know if I can live in limbo for another 2 years, if reports that non MODL applications won't be processed till 2011 are to be believed. My instincts now tell me to make the best of things here, not an easy decision to come to after so much time and money 'wasted'...

Oh right, thought you'd applied to NT as well. Think when we last chatted you were still awaiting feedback from VIC. Sorry it didn't pan out. I was the same as you and applied for an off-list place ![Sneaky](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sneaky.gif)
Nothing changed with me i'm afraid, am now at the stage of forgetting the whole thing and moving on with my life here, don't know if I can live in limbo for another 2 years, if reports that non MODL applications won't be processed till 2011 are to be believed. My instincts now tell me to make the best of things here, not an easy decision to come to after so much time and money 'wasted'...
Don't know what to do for the best...

Hey everyone, I have recently changed my visa from a 175 to a 475. I was told the only difference would be that I have to stay in my chosen state until I get citizenship, is this correct? Also I lodged my visa in april and was given a SMT number. is this of any use because all the websites I go on ask for a different number.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hey everyone, I have recently changed my visa from a 175 to a 475. I was told the only difference would be that I have to stay in my chosen state until I get citizenship, is this correct? Also I lodged my visa in april and was given a SMT number. is this of any use because all the websites I go on ask for a different number.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
