rahulpatel1969 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I would be relieved if i see a few cat 4s getting CO fast this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambos Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 For me I applied right at the end of June-11. Just before the deadline (Family 176). The time line was at the time was 24 months and then changed to 12-18 months. Assuming we get a CO before end of Feb-12 then this is would still only be 8 months!!. I think we all got carried away when DIAC was getting through the applications very quickly ahead of schedule. I would agree with others that we should see an improvement once the holidays have finished. Next week I imagine there could be a catch up period (not back up to speed) and then the week after that should see a return to pre x-mas processing speeds. Good luck everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHandGH Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 There are two groups of people wishing for different outcomes. (1) CAT4s are hoping processing will continue as normal once June applicants have been dealt with. (2) CAT5s are hoping processing will move on to their group once June applicants have been dealt with. As NatsB says, we'll only know for sure if we see a post July 1st CAT4 processed in the coming weeks. Whatever your situation I wish you all the best.

Guest The6OfUs Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Just been doing some looking around and found a guy who applied for a 175 on 22nd June 2011 got allocated Co yesterday. So some movement, even if it is small!! http://www.expatforum.com/expats/australia-expat-forum-expats-living-australia/55385-priority-3-now-priority-4-applicants-club-1145.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck everyone South Australia, which is where offshore GSM applications are processed, end their school holiday next week. Lets hope that gets DIAC's employees back to work.

Guest waitingtogotooz Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 G'day guys, Long time no post took me a while to read through everything, BLECH - CONGRATULATIONS. BPREMJI - was hoping to come on here to see you have a CO at least. I dont think it'll be long for you. CONGRATULATIONS to all those who im not familiar with who have got COs and/or grants, its an amazing feeling eh update from me: House sold and completed on the 3rd January. We are currently residing at my mums and we have booked our ONE WAY TICKETS for the 20th September 2012. This is giving us time to save for the big move (have you seen the prices of cars in oz - OMG). lol. For those who are still waiting, never give up hope, it will happen, sooner or later, patience is the name of the game (although I was probably one of the most impatient members on here). Enough from me. Best of luck everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpremji Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Helloooo.... Good to see you back, glad the house sale went through...
