Izzielizzie Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Hi @jess6, thanks for sharing and yes, I've heard up to 9 months so a bit unnerved as we're 9.7 months in now. But when I rang IMMI late last week, they did say our application had not yet been allocated as they were still processing March (not sure if this was a standard answer or in relation to any undisclosed priority or category list ours specifically falls under!) Guess we also have to account for the holidays and less staffing. She mentioned that people were coming back in again so hopefully we start seeing movement. Really hope they have COs allocated to catchup with the backlogs! Or maybe I should push back my expectations to over 10 months again, ha ha. I've been stretching my expectations with each passing month - since August actually, as I was initially advised 4-6 months. Awfully excruciating wait and I'm sure many can relate. @badaich89 and @APR15, also April DE here - no contact since lodgement - hope we get PR soon. Let's keep each other posted! @badaich89 - are you on the spreadsheet? What's your timeline? @Izzielizzie - my MA just sent me a mail today to re-confirm that the department is currently taking 9 months to process applications. Which means for me: March/April.I know that my friend, who got approval last week, had similar feedback from her MA and it was a big surprise for her to see her case approved so soon (6 months). So, it does not seen abnormal to be processed in 9 or 10 months. Edited January 24, 2017 by Izzielizzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzielizzie Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Wow Tim, CONGRATS! Same occupation but we lodged APR and case has not even been allocated yet! Was your application via the Direct Entry or Transition stream? It really feels like they just skipped APR cases and decided to finalise May-July first. In saying that, if memory serves, the automated email was advising that they were processing FEB applications since maybe September or even August?? Also, we frontloaded all requirements (and more!) so our application is really just waiting...hitting 300 days by next week! Don't even know how I feel anymore.:mad: Occupation: Marketing Specialist.
