Maggie2012 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 If my wife's IELTS turns out to be below 4.5, I will pay the second installment. If this is allowed, my wife should be granted a visa as well, shouldn't she? Since I've already ticked Functional English for spouse, is there an urgent need to call DIAC at this time before CO allocation? As Vp3 said, perhaps you need to wait until you have a CO assigned (sorry I din't realize that you had no CO yet). The average time should be 5 weeks for a CO assignment, ours was assigned just short of that. But I do not see why DIAC wouldn't answer your questions if you have called them....

What happens is that his results will be sent to a Medical Officer of the Commonwealth and that may be a bit of extra time. No worries though!

Any Idea how to check the reason for delay in allocation of CO. Please respond. Thanks. Regards, Arun Hi have you actually lodged visa application or just submitted EOI? If youve lodged (as in youve paid for visa fee) you could maybe ring Diac as their site advises about 5 weeks for allocation of CO. Ive seen some status's where people have been waiting a little longer but not as long as yourself. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Kamardeen Hi, Firstly i request you to get the IELTS with minimum 6 Score. If you score more than 7 you will get points. Once done with IELTS, get the document to Engineer Australia for assessment. It will take 8 to 12 weeks. Post assessment from Engineer Australia apply for EOI.
