Wow Saff! Congratulations - on the PR and new job! Fantastic news. Hope you had as good a night as I did last night! At least I know now that you won't be coming after me for releasing the tracker (that no longer works!)

Has anyone been able to edit the new tracker link?!? I am trying to - as need to change it - I got our direct visa grant emails about 30 mins ago!!! 74 days exactly! Adelaide Team 2. Overjoyed, now I can send my email to my employers setting out my demands to keep me (already drafted this morning!). Good luck everyone, hope your wait won't be as long as mine! And if anyone does have any luck with editing it - can you let me know how.....:chatterbox::wink:

Saff, posted before I saw your post. To be clear, I have shared on the proviso of noliablility for any suffering of anxiety, depression, frustration, sleep depravation, reduction in work performance, attention depravation to friends and family or any other symptom of releasing the link!

If you are sure..... this is working for me that I found on another forum! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/tTzjNkRDdXRm7VSDjvAxn1Q/htmlview?pli=1#gid=1521985861

Think I've found link to access it. After a day of withdrawal are you sure you want the tracker back in your lives.....are we not better not knowing! I think I would have been happier thinking 3 months was good!

My husband called this morning - you were right - really courteous! They advised that it has been assigned to a processing team - Adelaide GSM Team 8, and they gave an email address. We were meant to receive a notification within 2 weeks of allocation to the team (according to the DIBC standards), and haven't - so my husband emailed them this morning to check all was OK. We were on holiday a few weeks ago (so offshore even though an onshore application) - which may have caused someone to park our case (which is fair enought) - so he just noted we hadn't received notification, and wanted to check all was OK - and to let them know we are back in the country. Hopefully this will let someone pick the case up (in case this was holiding them off). At least we know now it has moved somewhere! Thanks again.

Thanks moaustralia and saff. Right - confidence gained - will try them in the morning!

Thanks Saff! W We all know is not the full facts regarding them processing early Decembers in early March. In early March (ie the 2nd) they weren't newly assigning anything pre 24th Dec, and had started approving January ones (up to the 9th Jan)! This means they were processing from early December up to the 9th Jan. What date did you apply and when did you call? Worried that if I call, that they will put a black mark against me, and deliberately not pick the file up until the 3 month time, and then ask for onerous additional information! On the tracker, someone who applied on the 21st Dec called, and they were advised that they are scheduled for end of March assessment, which makes me think that pre 3 month callers may be seen as an annoyance. Were they friendly or unfriendly when you spoke to them? Weighing up if I should or not..... seems OK to call once CO assinged or 3 months has passed, but not sure if should just because everyone else seems to have been dealt with. Really need the PR confirmed to sort some work issues out for both of us, hence my impatience. My work particularly are messing me around without it and I want to own my own life again, and the next 2 weeks are crucial for this. Within a couple of weeks at least my 3 months will be up to justify a call! Be good to hear how you get on. Thanks Wallse :wacko:

Congrats Benj1980!

Big Congrats Husage123! And a direct grant too! You are the last person on the tracker on either side of my date to get their visa or a CO, so hope that ours will come soon. Best of luck with the move over here - it is worth the wait/hardwork!

Day 67....Still no contact whatsoever from DIAC, try 67 days!

Thanks RonieOz2015. Was worried about changing email address of correspondance for the application from primary applicant email address (ie - my husband's) - but have done as you suggested and it looks like it just alerts you when their is a change of status or correspondance. Actually did it in the IMMI login page under My Preferences, manage application alert preferences accidentally - but think does the same thing (ie - automatically applies to the live application). Having done this, and then gone into the application again - it looks like his email is still the main correspondance email - so you may have just saved my marriage....

You have a case officer though don't you Benj10980? Thought I saw that on prior post, but not showing on the tracker. I am still awaiting CO. Driving my husband mad - cos I keep logging into IMMI to see if we have anything yet- and he gets the email notifications everytime. Have offered to log directly into his emails if he gave me the password, but he didn't seem to like that!

I am onshore - and on a 457 (ie - working visa). I applied on the 11th and nothing - so don't think it is onshore or working people that get a priority. I think they just divy out 10 days worth of applicants - and it comes through quicker based purely on who happens to be looking at it and where you are in their pile. I have analysed everywhich way too, and think it is just potluck. There happen to be more onshore people on the tracker at the mo - hence why lots of them are getting their visas... Think we all just need to be patient (she tells herself calmly!!!).

Thought being on holiday in Japan would distract me from checking the tracker 20 times a Day. Agree that it looks like they have handed out cases up to 9th January this week, so don't expect anything until early next week earliest. Doesn't stop me looking all day though at the tracker!
