Geoffandgill Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Many many congrats....When did you lodge your application 143???Hi Ryan, seems like a lifetime ago, 9th June 2015. By the time we get back from NZ it will be 40 months (which is a fare way over the original estimated 18-22 months quoted )Thanks for your comment.

Skeelsy Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I tried putting another word instead of ‘test’ and worked immediately. This week my contemplation as to what ‘word’ to use ended up in very inappropriate words!! Could this be a way of venting with your choice of word when sending for the ‘out of office’ email - even this could be considered a good descriptive term!!! Likely the word substitute for ‘test’ could in the long run produce some colourful choices. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi I just send the same every time by hitting reply to the WA previously received, cutting all the message and leaving subject line which is “re: automatic reply:” then hit send. It usually comes back OK. Saying that I just did it and realized it was less than a week since I last did it so hence no reply! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharad Guru Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Another week gone... 3 years. 1 month & 6 days. nothing till now. does anyone have any idea why immi is not contacting new applicants from 1st july 2015... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaH27 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) Quote Probably because by the end of June 2015 applications had vastly increased and the queue was double what it had been in June 2014. They're probably using up this years visa quota (and probably next years ) on applicants in the queue up to June 2015. The queue at end June 2015 was over 24000 so if they only do about 6000 a year thats 4 years of waiting applicants to get through!

We were advised by our agent at the beginning of this month that they were asking for AOS etc up to those who had lodged up to 22nd June 2015. Hope this answers your query.

I think its for everyone at the moment, as we have been waiting 3 yrs 1 month and 14 days!! and haven't even started the AoS process which is taking 6 months!
