GaryandGillDublin Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Has anybody with 2011 approved WA SS, heard from a case officer? We submitted our 176 on 31.01.11 and it's probably waaaaaaaaaaaay to early to expect to hear anything but ... no harm in hoping haha:biggrin: x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulswin Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Hi Gill, we have'nt heard anything yet! Someone on here got a co within days! Are you front loading your medicals or waiting until you get a co?? I'm still thinking maybe 6-9 months to get a co but anything sooner would be a blessing!:biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so hard to judge how long it will take to get CO and Visa, some people seem to be getting them very quickly. Fingers crossed we're in with that batch ... haha x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed we're in with that batch ... haha x Hi GaryandGillDublin, I know this post was for paulswin but I can tell you that we've been told by our agents that we can frontload if we would like to as CO are being issued very quickly (apparently DIAC need to reach their quota by 30th June). However we've decided to wait until we have a CO as money is a little tight after paying for the application and a CO should pick up our application regardless of whether we've frontoaded the meds and police checks or not. Hope it will be soon though as I'm starting to the get same OCD with checking the emails that I had waiting for the WA SS!! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redrobbersdog Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Paulswin, they need to be signed by a professional, pretty much the same as your uk passport application requires. Hope this helps. Dawn x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
