Once they called the office they were told 2 weeks for a CO to be assigned but it was granted that same day! My MA told me there's wasn't anything they could do, even said immi don't like to be emailed. She told me she would follow up with an email but that was almost 2 week ago. Beyond a joke now I'mertainly not waiting patiently! @fiji that's sucks about your police clearance! Least you have a CO on the job now hopefully not much longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raj27 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Guys, I lodged my ENS Mid July - Temporary stream. My agent is confident it should be fine. However, I have question. Does it makes a difference if you get promoted to higher position (than your actual 457 nominated position). For example if your are working as Network support and your are promoted to Network support Team Leader. Just a title is different, job description is very similar. I will appreciate your reply. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
