Note: Their is not actual science to this, this is just (as mentioned) based on the last 3 updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dfrolic Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 News from Russian forum: A guy from Ukraine (175 from 10/01/2011, 18-March letter received) informed DIAC that he had all the 18-3-Letter requirements done and asked about CO allocation. Here's the reply of DIAC: Dear Client,Thank you for your email in relation to your visa application under Australia's General Skilled Migration program. Information about case officer allocation was as estimate only. DIAC currently anticipates assigning a case officer to any unallocated case by 30/9/2011. Your case officer will contact you about any outstanding requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mpogr Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Well, that response was regarding people, who received the Mar 18th email, which, obviously, means, they applied before Mar 18th (some just a week or two before). I wouldn't say this applies to everyone, like people who lodged their applications after Mar 18th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still they need process 7months only, till 03/2011. Currently they will process around 31.5 days per update...... hence they will clear all the backlog very soon....:idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DCAL Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/was-crippling-skills-crisis-is-not-over-20110719-1hn3w.html?from=watoday_sb So Perth has been reclassified as Regional. I cant understand why DIAC removed the ability to add a state sponsorship to an application. It would make complete sense that if you have applied for 175 or alike that you could in affect add a 'bolt on' to your application which fast tracks or move it up a category rather than having to reapply for a completely new visa. If this was an option I know I would do it and move my plans forward. Given the skills shortages that Oz is having and all the news around this on the above link.
