thanks! just over two months, so hopefully yours isn't too far away!

good news, my father received approval this week. hope you also hear positive news soon.

I've spoken to the specialist team too and told the application is still being processed.

Good luck with your 600 application, please let me know how you get on, as we may head down the same route.

no luck yet I'm afraid. How about you? Have you tried any other potential avenues to move yours forward?

Hi all,

I wondered whether anyone here might be in a position to offer any advice or guidance regarding my father's 651 eVisitor visa application.

He applied on 14 March and was asked to provide more information (police check) on 18 March. He provided that to the Department on 25 March (clean with no convictions) and has yet to receive any further correspondence on his application.

I even became an authorised recipient on 22 April and contacted my local MP in the hope of moving the process forward, unfortunately to no avail.

My mother applied at the same time and received her application in a matter of minutes.

Would appreciate any views as the past 8 weeks have been incredibly frustrating and stressful.

Hi all, the long wait is over!

Application Date - 8 Feb 2021 

Test Invite Received - 31 March 2022

Test Date - 6 April 2022

Approval Date - 6 April 2022

Awaiting ceremony date.

Knox City Council, VIC

Best of luck to you all!

Hi all, 

I saw today that 75% of citizenship applications are now being processed in 9 months. 

I applied back in January 2021 in Melbourne and am keen to seek an update from the Department as to the status of my application.

Does anyone have the correct email address for contacting the Department?

Thanks in advance.
