Mine will be exactly 14 months tomorrow. No contact whatsoever from the Department. My status is still "Received". I wonder why... Anyone else here who applied in March and has not been contacted at all?

Received means you have not been allotted a CO yet

hey guys, can anyone please tell me what the email address is where you can send documents... it was something like skilled support@ something...

A friend needs it since his immi account does not allow him to upload docs...

Just now, nudgee said:

 

Did you lodge a complaint since your timeframe has passed 17 months?

 

Where and how can you lodge a complaint? When i applied it was 7-11 months and has changed a few times to what it is now...16-17 months....i am past 18 months now....

But I have submitted already, in February!  So I have no idea what they playing at... Playing games.

Today, I attached it twice again and emailed it again, straight away. Email has bounced, and the immiaccount is showing 3 exactly same documents being submitted now.     

Hey Russki, the IMMI account has a limit of 60 docs, make sure you haven't submitted to the max...I have and cant submit anymore.

They can take as long as they want. Ours has taken July -November n November till May to open ours each time n we submitted within 12 hours. 

I applied on 07/11/2017...contacted april 2018 and then again in oct 2018...then finally on 02/05/2019 asking for what i gave them in oct 2018 again...namely evidence of residence in designated area...i have family sponsorship and the entire state is... so i sit here twiddling my thumbs again

SO here is a question guys...

When a CO send s you a request for more information....they give you 28 days to provide the info.

Rumour or hearsay, what ever you call it....Even you furnish all the info withing the same day; they wait the full 28 days before they touch your file again....

Is this true or false??

I will apply 887 in two weeks. Just a dump question, do we use the same IMMI account that was used to apply for 489 to submit new application? Cheers

yes you use the same IMMI account mate

Mate if you are sponsored by a relative then only whole vic is regional but if you are sponsored by a state then melbourne is not regional 

I am sponsored by a relative

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.

Hey Guys,

Lodged 887 application on 07/11/2017

Requested to provide for 80 and AFP name check in may 2018

Due to an issue with my name in my passport asked to provide another AFP name check, form 80 and another form called "Declaration of Service" they asked me to also make sure i had completed FORM 1399 (i have never been in the military anywhere anytime) this was in Oct 2018.

Uploaded all docs within a week on 24 Oct 2018

No updates since then....on IMMI online it just says further assessment.

CO was Adam when the last set of docs were asked for in Oct 2018.

Anyone have the same experience? Also i saw on this or another forum that Adam might not be in IMMI anymore...

Thanks

Salil
