Hi BecWortho, I emailed the general one posted earlier and CC'd my CO email in. still not had a reply. That makes sense that they would be more inclined to respond to the applicant. I have only sent two emails throughout our whole application process the first in regard to our medical submission which was responded to after about 2 weeks and this last one sent on the 8th month mark to see what was happening because we hadn't heard anything yet and people on this forum posted that sending an email can sometimes prompt a faster response. I have not been "hassling" my co as implied.

Hello everyone, I am a longtime lurker first time poster to this thread. Our visa timeline is as follows: Submitted online: 15/02/2014 CO (VF) assigned: 19/03/2014 Medical/police check submitted: 16/06/2014 I am currently in Melbourne and my OH is in nottingham waiting for the visa. His life has been on hold these last 3 months just waiting for the visa to come, he's missed several job opportunities in australia and as I'm sure you all know its very frustrating. He has called Europe Services Centre twice now since we hit the 8month mark asking for a date when we can expect a decision to come through to book tickets and was told that all they could tell him was the 8-9month mark, when he asked to speak to our case officer they said we were not allowed to directly speak with them. I know several people here have commented how they have been in touch with their case officers and even know what office hours they work. When our case officer first contacted us it was through the general email. So my question to you is does anyone actually have a direct number for their case officer? and what has been peoples experience with VF? from previous comments she seems to be rather prompt at getting her visa done in a reasonable timeframe, but i feel like my emails are being ignored and the waiting is so excruciating.
