CaptainC Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Spincsuraj, I notice you haven't heard anything since Jan 2013, in my opinion if the agent is not forthcoming with any information after one year then you are quite within your rights to contact the CO directly. Also if it was me I'd be having serious words with the agent over the lack of information and probably dispensing of his/her services. I hope you haven't paid this 'agent' too much money. Remember the agent is your 'employee' working on your behalf. Ultimately it's your application......contact the CO yourself. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolbreeze Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Experts/Seniors, My application is being processed via migration agent. My agent is not very efficent in email correspondence. I have been following up with them to check with my CO for the progress of my application and found that their emails are not very communicative with the CO. I havent recevied any response from the CO after Jan 2013. I was thinking of mailing to CO to find the progress on my application. has anyone communicated with CO while appointing an authorised person on our behalf. Do you guys think if its ok to email or call up them? Pls respond. As mentioned above...you really should be contacting your CO directly. That is an incredible amount of time to not hear anything.

If you see my timelines, I lodged my visa way back in December. Give it time, I know I was losing my mind with all the waiting, but it will work out!

I rang her direct number. I had asked for the status of my application. She said my application is under active process. Since I have appointed migration agent I have to come through them for any correspondence. I had apologised for contacting directly. the response from her was its ok. Not to worry. I am not kind getting what she meant by active processing? is my application being finalised. What do u think? I am going crazy with this. I lodged my application in 2013 april. long long waiting,.

Spincsuraj Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Does any one know what does it mean by "Your application is under active processing". Does this mean external checks or case finalisation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolbreeze Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Does any one know what does it mean by "Your application is under active processing". Does this mean external checks or case finalisation? I am not sure what 'active' processing means. However, the fact you have called the CO has highlighted your case to her. I would think that you should , at the very least, be higher on her pile to do now....we hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kellie23 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hey am I reading correctly that visa processing times for a 189 skilled independent visa is 3 months? So if that's the case is that 3 months from lodgement or 3 months from meds? If it 3 months from lodgement then I should hopefully hear by mid April as we lodged mid jan. I'm just hoping this whole waiting until 1st July is absolutely worse case scenario! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be concerned though - most are processed much quicker....you really won't be too long now. What was the date you uploaded the final document??

Definitely sucks especially when everyone else seems to be getting theirs. I'm obviously happy for them but it just makes me think ours has been forgotten but I'm sure it's just me being completely impatient and paranoid!
