Hi Everyone,
First time posting and please don't take this the wrong way but great to find people in the same scary situation with the 143 CPV and the guesswork around the time span for the processing procedure. My wife and I lodged our application in December 2014 and are constantly getting updates on the auto email service ( if it had crashed it was probably down to us, sorry). Like others , I presume, we don't have the $100,000 visa and AOS fees in our petty cash and we are trying to get our timing spot on when to sell the house to raise the rest of the capital. A little dangerous because as you know the information we require just isn't made available such as how many applications are in front of us and how many Immi are processing each week/month. I reckon our time should be approaching within the next few months but as stated by others it has taken several weeks for the dates to proceed a few days. Anyway, we are in the same situation as many others I guess and reading the previous post I was hoping someone might be able to give a second opinion ( or 3rd or 4th) of whether you think my guestimate of September / October 2017 is around about right ?. What do you think ?, any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated as it is like playing bingo blindfolded !
I notice now it states you should have the funds available but realistically not everyone has I guess and selling too early and the upheaval of then renting etc : / , hate to be a whinging Pom before we hopefully get to Australia but respectfully, surely a little more information wouldn't hurt hey !
