Kung mag-e-email sila sa akin, ano palang Email Header or email address gamit nila? May *.immi.gov.au ba?
Thanks in advance mga pre. Inaalala ko kasi na baka na-miss ko ang email nila since marami akong emails na may "Australia"/"AUS", "AU" na keywords, from forums at linkedin groups.

Base rito eh mukhang 1st and 2nd week of June Applicants na ang pinaprocess nila, including Software Engineer (261313) applicants. Napansin ko kasi na medyo mabagal ang processing ng naka 261313 na nag-apply nung June.
Still waiting for CO or direct grant sana.
