Anyone have an update from the Sunshine Coast? Applied 4th May 2018 test 8th May 2019 waiting approval just sent off for my second foi and a month ago I had a call from the CO after complaining on the global feedback. He said that he approves 400 a week and that he’s in April right now so I’ll be coming up soon. He said keep checking my mailbox so I’ve been doing it daily for over a month now i said that it was BS that regional areas get longer approvals yet there’s so many people in major cities getting same day approvals and there’s many applicants from 2019 getting their citizenship within a few months. This process is utter BS

I got a call today from the case officer nd he was just calling to reassure me I’m on the last stages so keep checking my mailbox.... he said he does 400 a week

Yes it does as it’s usually done at a Centrelink by human services and they send it to the case officers at home affairs. If you are in cities you will have your test at an immigration office which should be interviewed by an actual case officer. Depending on your checks you are most likely to get same day approval. Whereas anyone from regional areas getting interviewed by human services will not be same day approval as they are nothing to do with immigration. It could take months for case officers to even open back up your file again. Which sucks...

Yeah, I applied 4th May 2018 and had my test 8th May 2019 and still no approval. I’m actually getting pissed off seeing people elsewhere getting ceremonies after applying in 2019! It’s so unfair because we are regional...

So so sorry to hear that

Have you got your approval yet?

Any approval yet? This is a joke for the Sunshine Coast when there’s people applying in 2019, getting test and approval! Wtf? Yet up here we get left in the dark!

Ah awesome! I called the local council a few months back and they said that they said they have a ceremony in May (doubt we will make that one), July (hopefully that one so I can get HECS before uni), September and November. I really hope we get an approval soon! He told me because he works for human services he can only send off the info I gave him and my test results. He didn’t say about 6 weeks but he did say leave it a few days before you try and contact them. Good luck!!!

Date Applied: 04/05/2018 Council: Sunshine Coast Email for Test Date: 17/04/2019 Date of Test/Interview: 08/05/2019 Test/Interview Location: Centrelink Kawana, SC Immi account Status Approval: waiting  Approval Letter: waiting Ceremony: Waiting hi guys! Here is my timeline and I’m just wondering what are other Sunshine Coast timelines like? Because we do the test at Centrelink with the department of human services, they collect the info and test you and then send it to home affairs. my question is, because we do the test at Centrelink does it mean we get a slower approval than others who get tested at an immigration office? Can other Sunshine Coast residents share their timelines for me please? Thank you

Hi I'm in a very similar situation to this and was wondering how did you get along going back to the UK? I want my family to support me but I dont want my partner to miss out on his child and if I change my mind when I am back in england, I wont be able to come back as I'm only on 820. I'm terrified to take a father figure away from my child..

I wonder how they can figure out the schools though? And no i didnt get a deadline

The medical can be extended up to 6 months? see I did my medical and police checks 3 months before the application too. I'm aware that I wont have to do another english one which is awesome because they messed me about and said they sent me 5. Took them 3 months to send me one! and the day I actually posted my application I went home to find the stupid english police check hanging out my letter box. GRR It is good to see a few more in the same boat. I've nearly finished the form 80 but there are a couple of primary schools I dont remember when I was like 5-6 years old so I may just keep it to one primary school. Risky but most of it is right... as for europe... I'm 24 and since I was 14 I've figured 22 countries... but not the dates. NO IDEA! so i'm pretty stressed at the moment.. Also can you tell me If I have to put all the hostels in the gap where I was travelling for 10 months? because I keep reading it over and thats what I seem to be getting confused with....

Sydney so it should be 13 months

This is what we are confused about because it says from department of immigration but doesnt say auto email. I have had BVB visa's before and know what the auto replies look like. This ones different

I applied 2nd may 2014 and a few days ago I got contacted by the CO saying all they need is the form 80. I already did my medical and police checks last feb so I only got about a week to figure this form out. IT IS HORRIBLE! but hopefully if I can send it back to them in time I wont have to do another medical. Also can anyone let me know how they are getting on with the form 80 or how they did?
