1. Paggising sa umaga, first thing to do - check email.
2. Preparing to work - hilamos, check email, breakfast, check mail, brush teeth, check email, personal business, check email, ligo, check email. you get the drift.
3. Commute - check email
4. or Drive - hey siri, check new email
5. Work - check email
6. Breaks - check email
7. In the middle of the night, wake up and check email
You will all get there. Just let the CO's do the hard work now. There's no need to call or email (unless obviously when you're beyond the service standard timeframe). Naipasa nyo na ang dapat nyong ipasa and if they don't ask anything more than what were submitted, they don't need anything more. Trust the process and just carry on. Magugulat ka na lang, bigla na lang lilitaw yung grant notification email, or an email from CO na nagpaparamdam lang or mag-aask ng bagong documents or documents na na-upload nyo na. Reply lang na, 'submitted na' or 'will upload in a day or two', then the next email you get will be the grant notification. Pa saan ba't sa huli e sa grant notification din naman ang ending.
Just breathe, relax, and carry on. And enjoy the surprise in the end
Good vibes everyone!
Gday!

No and yes. No if you provide all the necessary evidence with Form 929. Yes if you do not and your CO will ask again.
The timeframe is 11 to 15 months but that won't always be the case. When me and my partner applied for our visa, the service standard was up to 6 mos but was granted within 2 1/2 mos after lodgemelnt.
All the best!
Gday!

I recently transferred to a new company(relevant to applied occupation) this week. Nag EOI ako last May 31 pa (waiting for ITA). I believe this means i have to update my EOI with 2 things: 1. Set the end date for my previous company, 2. Include new company details. Needed ba talaga yung #2? Relevant occupation sya pero hindi pa ko nakaka 1 year.
Thanks in advance sa mga sasagot! >-
