supercow Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 So good your agent called and chasing my agent just gets annoyed I think when I ask anything who is your agent? A chap called "Stephen Dickson", http://www.migrateaus.com.au/ Dude's got the patience of a saint dealing with me. The first time I contacted him, was October 2010! With all the hundreds of emails etc from me, he's not once taken longer than a day to response or even charged me any more than his standard fees, which really isn't a lot.

Pratap Sone Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hello All, In general, does it take considerably more time for applications with dependents in it? I'm in Sydney and I have filed my application (me+wife) on July 22nd ==> CO was assigned on 15th Sept asking Form 80 for both of us ==> Submitted for 80 on 16th Sept. Now waiting and not sure how long should it take. I hear some of the families are waiting for years. Thaks, Pratap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prasvik86 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Hello All, Hope all of you guys are doing good and hoping to see if my query can be answered. I submitted my VISA application on August 10 2015 and got an Email from a person with the mail id "gsm.allocated@border.gov.au". Was asked for a few information and uploaded them all. Is this person the Case Officer or is the CO allocated after this? Some information on this and also next steps will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Yes, that's probably your Case Officer, although these days most applications are processed by teams so that person may not be the one looking at your file next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsSmithy81 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 We're still waiting to hear back from our CO. We sent additional documents a week ago but have heard nothing. I can't sleep... is anyone else still waiting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsSmithy81 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 We lodged mid July and heard from CO mid sept to request 3 more documents. We sent them but haven't heard. I'm hoping we hear very soon as we've sold our house and I have to resign by the end of the week to be able to leave in December. I tried phoning GSM Adelaide for an update on Sunday night but no one answered. good luck to you both! Hope you hear soon x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
