I know this doesn't change much, but glad to see that they are at least looking at the applications and assigning queue dates. Please will you confirm that your queue date is 14/11/18 - the same as your application date? A post on another Social Media platform stated they’d received a queue date the same as their application date - October 2018. My queue date is 10/05/21 and my application date is 18/07/18.

Yes the queue date has been specified same as application date - 14 Nov 2018 You may want to write to them about your case. Maybe the case officer made a mistake in assigning the queue date.

Suddenly the queue dates have started being given as the date of application, meaning earlier applications have been given a much later queue date. This is the second one I heard about yesterday.

thinh7tn Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I just read this on the homeaffairs website: Note: If you applied for a Contributory Parent visa before 1 June 2018, the queue date is the application lodgement date. For all other applications, the queue date is assigned once the application is assessed as meeting the core visa criteria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My application date is 18/07/2018 and my queue date is 10/05/21. Two posts on different forums yesterday, said they had just received the queue date letter and had been given the application date as the queue date. One application October 2018, queue date October 2018, ( I can’t remember the exact date. They posted the queue letter but the post has since been deleted). The one posted on here yesterday, is a November 2018 applicant and they have confirmed they have also been given their application date as their queue date. My issue is that, despite applying later than me, their queue date is nearly 3 years earlier. I’m sure this is human error, (we all make mistakes), but I’m hoping that this is noticed and rectified, so everyone is dealt with timely and fairly.

I don’t think the error is with my queue date. Other 143 applicants have been given much later queue dates than their application date. It is only seems to be applicants contacted recently that have been given their application date, as their queue date. I have emailed my migration agent so, hopefully, he can shed some light on this.

"All Contributory Parent visa applications lodged before 1 June 2018 have been given a queue date of the application lodgement date and applications lodged on or after 1 June 2018 will be assessed and given a queue date when it meets the initial visa criteria." It is all there on the Department's website ... Best regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the same date as my application lodgement date. @MillieB @Alan Collett- Screenshot from the letter below, showing both dates.

We've seen a batch of applications for clients with revised queue dates that are now the visa application date. Which is a change of approach. I think an email to the Department in Canberra will be in order ... Best regards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
