HI Applied on Nov 2017, contacted by Adam in April 2018 requesting info for living in Designated Area (my 489 said all of Vic is Designated.) and also Employment proof(i had submitted all this in Nov 2017, resubmitted PAYG Summaries for 2 yrs, and Residency proof for every address i have lived in since 2015.
Next contact in Oct 2018, Asking for form 80 and 1399(military service declaration; i have never served in the military)
Contacted Yesterday by a new CO Sophorn asking for evidence of residence in designated are AGAIN!!
I have uploaded the maximum of 60 docs, so emailed the gsm.adelaide team the summary of all docs submitted to show residence in designated area, followed up with a call to make sure immi knew i cant upload more docs and confirmed they received the email and attachment. I have also clicked the I have submitted all docs button and confirmed that they may make a decision based on all my submissions so far.
I don't understand how COs don't look at what has been submitted already especially when it comes to address proofs etc...also you would think they know that the 489 said all of Vic is considered regional when it was issued in Oct 2015.
Sorry about the rant guys but the wait is one thing...the inconvenience of not being able to apply for a car loan, home loan etc is worse... fingers toes and freaking legs crossed now...
I wonder if they will now wait the full 28 days from when they asked me for more info yesterday or just make a bloody decision.
