someone on here reported him to DIMIA for posting details of how long each region was taking to process visa applications. Shame that because he was a mine of very usefull information.
Lacey knows the real reason, sure its along those lines though!

Who knows PP, there are a small minority of people always willing to upset the majority because they have some axe to grind, I for one would love him to start posting on here again!

I wonder what DIMA would have done?

God I wouldnt upset DIMA, but then I wouldnt report someone either.

He always seemed to know so much, I thought he was or had worked as an agent.

Very helpful to alot of people, myself included.

I emailed him to ask where he was hiding, & got the reply "I have given away the Expats as the ASPC were not happy that I had highlighted the discrepancies in processing times between the 5 regional teams."

Hope that answers your question - to be honest... I am absolutely gutted - he was a great guy! :(

Welsh Tony was a good bloke and an excellent Migration Agent. He gave out sound advice without an air of perceived self importance. He was extremely helpful without having the need to constantly refer you to the DIMIA site ......or a booklet of some sort or another.

This site needs people like Tony. His advice is invaluable, especially to those who are going through the stressful roller coaster ride of emigration. He was great for offering advice, rather than putting more hurdles forward.

Unfortunately, Tony has suffered as a result of "tall poppy syndrome". Standing out from the crowd did him no favours.

I and many others wish WT all the best. I hope he returns some day in the future.
