taniaholmes Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I always promised myself that I wouldn't get caught up in the constant checking of my application process, after all, I'm in no rush certainly financially, and it seems my visa will be dealt with 12 months earlier than I ever expected. Yet on Friday, I was struggling to log into my bank, even to the extenet I rung them and told them my account number wasn't working. It turned out that I was trying to log in using my passport number........ :biglaugh: Oh no did you tell the bank what details you was putting.

Guest JohnAnton Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I can not understand how 175 moved 1 month, but 885 moved only 3 days(from 15 june - 18 june). Both are in cat 4.. I think diac want 175 and 176 P4 applicants to catch up with the 885's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AndyH78 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Tania, I asked them to confirm what my account number was, (I should have just checked my cards), after they went through the security checks, they confirmed a number that was totally alien to me for a few seconds, then it dawned on me......

IAMRAZOR Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Can anyone tell me, when you get contacted my a case officer, how long do you have to do your police check and medicals? Do they give you a deadline such as a month or 2 months? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpremji Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I believe its usually 28 days, but you can request longer with a good reason, i.e. you cant book a medical in that time due to the clinic being booked up...

Guest Vzdrul Sharikoff Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Once again I have missed the target (this time it was 19 days with a minus :biggrin:). But the only thing I am glad for is that I always underestimate DIAC's potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JohnAnton Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 The docs that I've submitted to my agent are still "required" in my online status. Is this normal (pending CO allocation)? Or does this mean that my agent havent uploaded anything yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpremji Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Hi John, They usually stay as 'required' until a CO picks up your file. You can check the documents that your agent has uploaded using the following link: https://www.ecom.immi.gov.au/visas/attachment/start.do?attachType=VISA_APPLICATION&group=travel You will need to get your password off your agent.

Guest AndyH78 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 JohnAnton, I think everything says required until your CO starts looking at your file and ticking them off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sun lovers Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Its mad isn't it........there must be quite a few of us with COs that are actually glad when the weekend is over & DIAC are back at work! :wacko: Hi Mandy we had our vise GRANTED today :yellow_guy_smiling_ soo pleased we have a 176 and a 175. They granted our 175 !! applied in 2008 then put in CAT 5, recently moved to Cat 3 with the changes, got a case officer one month ago. How things can change, have you any news on your meds x Good luck everyone x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandymark Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Congrats Sun Lovers! My meds got referred but finalised 2 days later, thanks. Oo, I wonder whether we'll get considered for a 175 then - I did ask our CO if we could revert back to a 175 & he said it was already decided that 176s would still be 176s but all paperwork sent via email would refer to a 175:wacko: as they didnt have separate 176 letters. He did say that it was only a moral obligation and an agreement between us & Qld government so to liaise with them if we no longer wanted to go to Qld but TBH we're not sure, we just wanted to keep our options open.
