Samulv Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 That's so sweet! Not sure how my daughter would cope without daddy! Hopefully we will all have good news next week!

flatpack Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Anyone else going to be awake at 5am tomorrow to check if they have an email from DIAC? We should have been assigned a CO on the 18th Sept. but have heard nothing at all. I am aware that some folk have been getting their visa granted without hearing from their CO at all. I am in the "no news is good news" camp and have waited patiently but had set the 7th Oct as the day to ring DIAC to see if I could get any info from them. Now that day is approaching fast I don't want to ring in case they give me some bad news. Fingers crossed for an email in the morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flatpack Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Well the public holiday is now over so I'll be back to my ritual of waking at 5am to check if I've received an email! A poster on Perth Poms applied a full week after me and got their visa approved last Friday!!! Still no heard anything from a CO and was taking this as a positive but the seeds of doubt have now been sown! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samulv Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I'm hoping for this week too! Can't cope with the waiting anymore! Fingers crossed it happens for all of us. I'm starting to think our CO has gone on holiday! Good luck to everyone! Especially kbounds! Any idea of their working hours? No one seems to know!

gjmfl Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 May I know whether you are applying offshore, please? I, as the main applicant, uploaded the work reference from my manager, and income tax report in the past 8 years. Do you think whether they are enough? I am applying from offshore.

I, as the main applicant, uploaded the work reference from my manager, and income tax report in the past 8 years. Do you think whether they are enough? I am applying from offshore. We are applying offshore too. We provided a reference for an earlier job and status tort declaration and payslips for current job. This wasn't enough. We have now sent p60s for early job and 3 years bank statements to show payment from current job. Our agent tougher had enough but obviously not! I don't know if what u have provided is enough. We don't have any bank statements for earlier work because my husband was paid cash so hope the tax documents are enough! I think gathering as much evidence as possible just in case is a good idea. We had gathered what we could so we could upload it immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjmfl Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 to be honest, this is my first job. my senior manager agreed to write a work reference (4 pages) and will help to keep my migration plan confidential since i dont wanna reveal my migration plan to my employer till i am successful, otherwise, i wont have better promotion or opportunities in the future in this company. so first of all, i have a work reference letter. second, i have all the income tax documents from the local taxation authority, but there is no name of my employer on the tax bill since i am the taxpayer not my company. third, i will request bank statements for the past 7 years since i joined this company, and the name of the salary payer is my company. I dont know what else the immigration office will require? how do you think? Thank you for your advice. We are applying offshore too.

I can't say for sure because I haven't been contacted again since it was only uploaded today! Think it depends a lot on your CO. they don't all ask for the same things.

I HAVE DONE MEDICALS AND POLICE CLEARANCE. Can any body please tell me how long it will take. Thanks I have filed on 28th Aug... Still waiting for CO... haven't got medicals and PCC will probably start it now... I think their has been some delay as mine is over 6 weeks... probably some back log or number of applicants increased after new quota's from Aug..

Mxmanus Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 We lodged on 24/08/13 and still no CO. We won't be booking meds or PCC till asked as we aren't in any rush. We don't plan on going till August Sept next year. It's over 6 weeks now so maybe we will hear soon. We will update once we get one. Good luck everyone.

flatpack Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I have looked on the IMMI web site tonight and they are still quoting 5 weeks from lodgement foe a CO, that information was updated on the 4th Oct 2013. Having read that I'm going to relax a little and let them do their jobs. (Just a little faster please DIAC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maimenon Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 And the waiting game continues....CO has not contacted for any further docs...so lets hope all is ok... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatpack Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I could wait to know so I rang DIAC in the middle of the night. I was informed that we have had a CO since the 26/9 which is fantastic news. It took 6 weeks and 1 day from lodgement not the 5 weeks they state but at least we're being processed now.
