189 visa lodged 06/12/2012
Hi guys,
Here is my story:
Ielts (8.5 overall, 9,9,8,7.5)
Entered Australia (Student Visa) (18/01/2007)
Advanced diploma in Accounting (TAFE), Bachelors of Business and Commerce (Accounting) (University of Western Sydney), CPA (CPA Australia).
Had been offered a grad program from KPMG 2012, but the immigration rules changed and I could not lodge the PR (The only condition placed on offer by KPMG)
Lodged 485 (15/08/2011), Granted 485 (19/08/2012).
IELTS again (9,9,9,8). EOI, Invitation (01/12/2013)
Lodged 189 (06/12/2012). Case officer allocated (20/01/2013).
Emailed CO and enquired about the progress (10/06/2013). Response from CO that that the application is going through internal checks (24/06/2013)
It has been almost 8 months since the lodgement. Is there anyone else facing this kinda long lags. Please share.
