ArsalanAhmad Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I think its a random selection currently some applicants are getting test invite in 7 months and some are still waiting more than 18 months but you can further look into CCPT (Citizenship Case Prioritization Tool) it is 26 criteria through which they determine person's identity this is first main process. It includes whether a Person is Refugee, Change of Name, Citizen of some country, and some other criteria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArsalanAhmad Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 In short Refugee and other background applicants are facing more delay depending on CCPT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emailed, called, complained, and there is no issue in FOI result... Feel so hopeless... Same thing March 2017. I've noticed that there are a lot of people stuck from march 2017 +/- 1 month. I do remember that there was a report by ombudsman that these cases are waiting and only 10 or 15 officers have approval to work on them. It was like around 25K cases on those 10-15 officers. But not sure exactly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Thanks. To get more picture, so, you moved from Regional VIC to QLD & received email from Brisbane office? The reason I was I asking more details is, I changed my address from one part of NSW to other part of Reg NSW. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sahara77 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 No always live in the same city, but instead of Melbourne processing our applications it looks like they where processed in Queensland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please advise In your test email there should be instruction to change the test date if available. You should try to find the test date which suits you. The dates may open at anytime, so you need to keep an eye on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
