javi1979 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Hi, we were invited on 2nd Dec too. Lodged on 2nd Dec too. PCC loaded. Have to wait for CO to be assigned before we do our medicals as we have medical lab & X-rays under 12months old. Not sure if panel doctor can use same results or if new blood tests and X-rays will be required. Don't really think we should be zapped again for no real reason.

Wen66 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 When did you send your EoI? Ours was sent on the 29th October and still waiting. Is it still too soon? x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusterio Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Got my invite in October, but applied for visa just 3 days ago - on December 2nd ;-) Did the medical assessment today - very quick and easy. Getting police clearance records ("evidence of good character") is going to be much more complicated though - here in Asia it's super slow and requires a lot of paperwork ;( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoiphia Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 When did you send your EoI? Ours was sent on the 29th October and still waiting. Is it still too soon?x hi ya the department only issue them twice a month 1st and 3rd Monday of the month so i would guess that you will have just missed out on the 1st lot so hopefully you will get an invite on the 16/17th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it still too soon?x I sent mine maybe a week before my invitation...it's usually very quick but I think it depends on your occupation. There are several occupations that are nearing their occupational ceiling so they have reduced invitations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusterio Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Applied for visa just 3 days ago, and today already got a message from my CO! ;-) Anybody here as lucky as I am? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nastasia Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 That's really fast dusterio! Is it because you were invited since October or there is no real order in which a CO is assigned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusterio Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 That's really fast dusterio! Is it because you were invited since October or there is no real order in which a CO is assigned? I don't think it matters when one got invited. I think it's safe to assume there is some kind of sorting/priority - professions that are more hot at the moment, number of points, age, language skills, etc? Or maybe the officer had nothing to do and picked a random case... ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobRedpath Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 how can i check the SNOL list? do the case officers get assigned by order of what skill shortage is in most demand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
