Anyone heard from a CO yet?Wala pa rin ako. Pero usually daw ang mga kinokontact yata nila yung may kulang na documents. Hopefully makarinig ako sa kanila this week ( at sana visa grant na).

after completing your medicals/pcc's...nag-email na po ba kayo sa CO to inform them na kumpleto nyo na lahat?

bmc_cpu

@hotshot Hi, nag frontload po ako ng meds at pcc (as advised in the diac website). Magtatapos na yung 6th week ko since visa lodgment but never received info about CO allocation.

hotshot

@bmc_cpu from ur signature, its over 5 weeks now since u lodged ur application and according to the allocation schedule u should have been allocated a CO by now. however, from DIAC last report on 21st of september, only applications lodged on/before 12th August have been allocated to a CO. That means applications lodged from the 13th september (including urs) would be allocated from this week. You can wait till the end of the week to see if u will be contacted by a CO but nevertheless u can give DIAC a call to find out about that.

bmc_cpu

@olan Wala namang additional tests na pinagawa. Tumawag ako st. lukes a week after d meds, sabi na submit na raw.

bmc_cpu

@Boyolo I think before Aug. 17 instead of Aug. 12 based on the diac website. But there is someone in the other forum who lodged his on 15th Aug. but haven't heard from a CO whatsoever and there are those who lodged on sept. and were allocated with CO's since last week.

Boyolo

@bmc_cpu you are correct about the 17 August date and since u lodged before 17th while not giv them a call? as for those who lodged in september and has been allocated CO already, did they apply under the 485, 476, and 887 subclass? these subclassess are exempted from priority processing thus they are allocated to CO immediately they are lodged.

At least three members sa kabilang forum ang nagka-CO today. May isa doon September 10 lang nag-lodge. [-(

@Metaform did these members lodged for visa 189/190 visa?

angela

I finally received my Acknowledgement Letter after emailing the support email ad. But wala naman Health ID or a separate Health Exam pdf file ako nareceive. There is an "Organize your Health Exam" link in the eVisa page but not sure if I should use that since I read in the website: "you should undergo your required health examination as soon as possible after your case officer has advised you to do so". Any advise?

Boyolo

@angela the PDF files for your Health ID is contained in the "organise your Health Exam" link.click on it and it will generate your forms (26 & 160) for you. The forms contain your basic detail already filled by the system. Also, I thought one can undertake the health exam even before a CO advise. what is the link for the page where you read that?

angela

@Boyolo ah i see..thanks! let me check that again. btw, here's the link where i read about it: http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/health-requirements/arranging-health-exam.htm

Metaform

Visa 190 applicants can undergo meds when nearing allocation. I frontloaded mine and the "organize your health exam" link disappeared on my evisa account.

@Boyolo They are visa 190 applicants.

aprilcruise

@angela ano bo points nyo kasi nakita ko sa timeline na you are invited to apply for visa 189

Boyolo

@angela I have gone through the link and from the info there one can undertake medicals after lodging application if applying for subclass 189 and 190. but the problem with 189 visa is that processing time is estimated to be 12 months (but can be more or less than that) and the medical results are also valid for only 12 months. Thus, if processing of your visa takes more than 12 months the result would have expired before the approval of your visa. Thus, for 189 visa applicants, its advisable to wait for CO to give the go ahead.

@Metaform that is interesting ...

@Boyolo - I have a feeling next week meron ka na CO...

Boyolo

@ psychoboy Amen...... by God's grace next week those of us due for CO allocation will get allocated.

Metaform

My case is kind of bizarre. The probable reason that I still have not been allocated a CO is because my acknowledgment letter was sent only on September 14, indicating my application date to be the same. Someone from the other forum with the same case as mine called DIAC and confirmed that they consider the acknowledgment letter date to be the real application date. So second week ko pa lang ito kahit last month pa ako nag-submit and nagbayad ng application. Gusto kong mag-hulk out sa pagka-inis pero tinatamad ako. =:)

hotshot

@Metaform : ok lang po yan...good vibes lang. pinapasabik lang kayo.

legato09

@Metaform babawi po yan kapag may CO kana, baka katulad nung iba dito, ni hindi pa nakaka establish ng rapport sa CO nila Visa Granted na kagad! hehehehe

Relax lang po ;-)

Metaform

So kakatawag ko lang sa diac diba? And I was told na yung acknowledgment date nga yung datena na-receive nila yung application ko. And that may CO na rin ako, etc. Tingin ko diretso sa mailbox ng mga co yung mga acknowledged applications then it's up to them kung kelan mapa-process. Meh, anyway pampalubag-loob na rin nang marinig ko yun.

bmc_cpu

@Metaform tatawag din sana ako mamaya pero mukhang parehong info din yata makukuha ko. Anong no. yung tinawagan mo?

Metaform

@bmc_cpu Yung (006)1130036-4613. Wag na ikaw tumawag. Parang pare-pareho naman ang response nila and sasabihin din nila yung alam na natin. Marami talaga ang nasa queue so we have to wait.

LittleBoyBlue

@Metaform Kung September 14 ka pa eh technically baka mauna pa ako kahit Sept 3 ako nag-lodge? Kasi sakin, Sept 12 naman ang naka-reflect. Kung ganun, naiintindihan ko bakit ka mag-Hulk sa inis

Hinihintay ko kayo magka-CO actually, kasi pag nagka-CO na kayo, alam ko next in line na ko.
