taniaholmes Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Tania Finally they have started with cat 5. They are processing first the offshore ones. That's fantastic news, I new they would eventually!! and thank you for sharing :jiggy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taniaholmes Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Great news for Cat5'ers.... Anyone have an idea how this may affect Cat 4 allocations? I should not think it will effect cat 4 at all as you are still in a higher priority , I mentioned a bit back to cat 5 that they would start process before they finish cat 4 as it is normal to process another cat along side of another, cat 5 will be slow to start with but once they clear most of cat 4 then speed will pick up for cat 5.

exodus Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Hello All!! I am yet awaiting a CO. Meds have been finalized and updated but no update on the document checklist whatsoever. Maybe a CO has been allocated but no update on the tracking website. I see a lot of folks on here get a CO and have been asked for Meds and PCC... I have decided to frontload my PCC as well...Lets see how it goes.... By the way I applied on 05/05/2011.. Have a good day!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eng32 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Hi Eng! How do you know what things need to be sterilized? Is there any link u can share? I am also wondering if we can take our wooden furniture. Pleasee! Any help will be thanked Hi Lori, I have not done enough research on the subject of shipping to correctly advise you, but there is a thread on the forum dedicated to 'shipping and Removals', try looking there or else what i did is Google ' shipping furniture to Australia. Also try doing a search on this forum for advice on this subject, that is what i did. Sorry i can't help further but i don't want to give you wrong advice. But i do know that any outdoor equipment (bikes, garden furniture/tools) needs to be cleaned to the point that they look new, without even a trace of dirt/dust/mud etc, and once cleaned cover in Jays fluid.

Tania, Take the offer,if you listen to the news we are set to go in to a second recession so things arn't gonna get any better than they are now. it's not what you want I know but if it gets you their what does it matter. If you look on Seek Mark aint gonna find it hard to get a job. Just follow your heart. I sat up waiting for me 2nd interview last night and guess what it never happened I was very angry. So I went on email to ask Y. Lack of punctuality infuriates me. So I found the email that I was sent hit the reply button and as the text from the original email popped on the screen. “we are pleased to offer you an interview this will take place on the 20th of December, please contact us with the times that you would be available”................................................................................................................................... Silly Billy. I said to myself. Opps Lucky I didn’t hit the send button. I’m now beginning to think that the waiting room has affected me. I never used to be like this I’m a stickler for detail. Oh well means I got a bit more time for the medication to kick in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmsmark Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Good Morning Guys ,No news for my file From another timeline site 28th June 175 applicant (name Henning ) got CO Software Engineer , Germany Thanks RakeshPatel Remember that June is a very large month when it comes to applications because they changed requirements 1 July and many found it advantageous to get in under the old points test. Likely it will take them a bit longer to move through June than other months. Plus, there are the Holidays which will slow things a bit... Trust me, I hope all you June applicants get allocated soon so they can move on to my July application! :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
