betterskierthanthewife Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Anyone else frustrated by the slowness of responses from their CO/updates to the immiaccount? I was asked to provide extra information to support my work experience, most of which I've been able to provide but I'm not sure I'll be able to get all of it. No indication has been given as to how important this might be. I also uploaded Form 80 about two weeks ago but the immiaccount still says "requested".

Coolbreeze Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Thought I'd bring this post back up to the top... Any updates from the January lodged gang? I imagine there are a few of you just 'waiting' for a decision from CO? From me: Just waiting for Thai PCC's to arrive (ETA 13th March) - Our CO has been updating status to 'received' for any other additional docs uploaded within 1 day. Hopefully after Thai PCC we will have grant very quick after. Where are the rest you at?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgroot Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 We've been amazed at the speed of our visa application based on the fact it said 12months on the website. We've taken our time completing everything as we're not in a rush but we submitted the application at the beginning of January, had a CO 30th January and are now just waiting for the medicals to clear!!!

Vanduex Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Hello mate, All docs sent to agent and uploaded. Had the Medicals on Tuesday. They should be up by Monday or Tuesday and then it is time to wait for the CO I guess :-) By this time next week.......? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided you're all fit and healthy there should be no reason why your meds shouldn't be uploaded pretty quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided you're all fit and healthy there should be no reason why your meds shouldn't be uploaded pretty quick. thank you we are all fit and healthy but my daughter was born deaf in one ear. So little nervous about what they might say? She copes absolutely fine with one good ear, excels at school and doesn't need any kind of support or aid. She doesn't know any different so I'm hoping the fact she won't need any medical input with this that all will be fine but still nervous!

Took a few hours for the three of us but all fine :-). We just chatted with other visa applicants :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spangley Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 My German wife got her IELTS results yesterday. Non UK, US, IE passport holders need to attain 4.5 points, or undertake Aussie state English courses for around $2000. Anyway, she got 6 points, which is a fantastic result. So, we're just waiting on her IELTS received status, and our family medical tests. I think we're only a matter of days away from a grant.

CaptainC Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Hoping to apply in the next few weeks, sadly though my occupation requires me to travel to Australia first for my skills assessment. Has anybody else had this experience? I have seen that some people on this forum got almost everything filled out, IELTS, medical completed all well in advance, in some cases even before they submitted the EOI. Would any of you recommend this action? I like to be prepared/forewarned/fore-armed as I hate paperwork! PS good luck to all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
