R1ggers Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I really don't mean to be rude, but people "analysing" and trying to calculate other applicants approvals isn't helping anyone. Not one case is the same and not everyone's case will follow the same time line. People have different CO's and the CO's have different levels of work, some are quicker than others, some go on sick leave and some on annual leave. Like I said before if you are still within the 6-8 months processing time it could be any day. If it's earlier than this then it's a bonus! But please people stop predicting others grant times as you may be giving them unrealistic expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisH1979 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Got a mail from a DSO via MA "Thank you for your e-mail. The provided information has been attached to the application and will be assessed by a case officer in due course." Now what? To put it bluntly...you wait! Sorry but nothing much else you can do.

R1ggers Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Well said R1ggers. The best approach is to sit tight and wait. Enjoy life whilst you do! Don't get me wrong, I know it's frustrating and the not knowing makes us all think the worst, it's only natural to worry about these things, I was pulling my hair out not long ago as I couldn't get any info on my nom, DIAC won't tell you, my MA won't Contact DIAC as its still well within the processing time. But when my employer told me that the CO is scheduled to look at the nom, I know nothing can happen until that date. I've been informed that the visa app is fine and it's just waiting on the outcome of nom now. But people guessing each other's dates is wrong.

sammyjojo Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I completely agree R1ggers - there is no timeline - if there was they would say you visa will be done 3 months from date of submission but it isnt.....everyones case is different - defacto takes longer, kids take longer, off shore takes longer, certain passports take longer. to put it bluntly IT SUCKS......but we all want to stay........Good things come to those who wait........ Fingers crossed everyone gets great news when they get it........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreylee Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Don't get me wrong, I know it's frustrating and the not knowing makes us all think the worst, it's only natural to worry about these things, I was pulling my hair out not long ago as I couldn't get any info on my nom, DIAC won't tell you, my MA won't Contact DIAC as its still well within the processing time.

I've been informed that the visa app is fine and it's just waiting on the outcome of nom now. But people guessing each other's dates is wrong. We're all in the same boat so we know how it works. We've been told over and over again that "there's nothing we could do but wait". I don't know about you, but I speak for myself that I find comfort in knowing I can share my woes, pains and anxiety with others who are in the exact same situation. Predicting when the grants are going to come through isn't fostering an unrealistic expectation, but it gives the slightest relief knowing there are others watching your timeline and supporting you. I know we're all equally anxious to get our PR, which is why we're even on this forum in the first place. Let others speak what they wish to speak, rant what they want to rant, predict what they choose to predict, cos' at the end of the day we're all holding on to the one thing that still makes sense – hope.

Fingers crossed everyone gets great news when they get it........ Correct, nothing wrong at all with giving each other positive comments and well wishing, however I think telling someone that they will be granted on this day or that day is counter productive as we don't know when it will be granted. It's anyone's guess??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your taking this the wrong way! (Sigh) and I dint believe it is helpful predicting someone's grant day as you can't? If DIAC can't predict it then we deffo can't.

If DIAC can't predict it then we deffo can't. Haha please believe me when I say I didn't take it into offense. I guess what I'm trying to say is "predicting" someone's grant day is just another way of saying "hey don't lose hope, it will come very very soon (insert random date here)". At least for me, that's how I saw it. I doubt anyone here on this forum will ever know a definite date until those papers come through your email in black and white. Applicant to applicant – I am pulling my hair out just as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel07Mac Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 So on 30 June, an officer advised my MA that I would be allocated a case officer within a week from 30 June.....that was yesterday......all still very silent and my MA has not heard anything yet.

Applicant to applicant – I am pulling my hair out just as much. Yes, and most importantly why this forum created b'coz of judging our applications based on others application granted. I predicted dreylee's based on my colleagues got approval (same number of days unless and until any extra documents requested) which I analyzed for dreylees. I apologizes, if my prediction hurt anyone. we all are sailing on the same boat. let's hope for the best and we will start getting PR granted soooner than predicted Edited July 8, 2015 by shriniwas211 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelaurakate Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 My timeline: employers nomination submitted 20.2.15 ( after 2 years on 457 completed) More docs requested 29.5.15 more docs submitted 7.7.15- my employer didn't see the email requesting more docs so I had a panic when I got bk from a 4 week visit to the uk to get them in asap! Luckily immi still accepted them! I will submit my part once the nomination has been approved. As of yet am holding off doing medical etc , but I have my uk and oz police checks ready. Doing the whole thing myself- including the employers part! stress!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
