Nicole Eire Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I was told once that as soon as a case officer is assigned to it that you would be notified. Maybe that's not the case either? We weren't notified of this...we found out by default. Husband got a new passport and the details had to be sent to immi. The acknowledgement of receipt that came back had an attached email between the processing centre and our case officer, which is how we know. I relation to this, the agent has said - "the fact that you have a case officer does not inform you of the position of your file in that case officer's workload":wideeyed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole Eire Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Ya Im the same Ive been told not to ring or email DIAC by my migration agent but i just could resist. But my Migration Agent hasnt received any information yet so I cant really do much because I dont want to mess things up by annoying DIAC. I'm waiting on an email from Parramatta so hopefully that might have a few answers for me... Any male person Ive spoke to on the phone has been an a**hole but any female has been very helpful. Your probably the opposite C'mon, you can't beat the old flirtation!!! I'm the same, definitely do not want to annoy them, but in fairness they're annoying me! Bit the bullet and sent a detailed email to the processing centre, when they reply again I promise to leave it alone:biglaugh:. I asked my agent to contact them and they wouldn't, so I feel I had no choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MaryLynott Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Ok, that's a bit strange. I think they said for mine it could be up to 7 months waiting, which hasn't elapsed yet so I probably shouldn't hassle them too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MaryLynott Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Also, I don't have an agency I did it all myself. So I thought that might be the reason for the delay, but maybe not. Just the luck of the draw I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole Eire Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I definitely think 'the luck of the draw' has a part to play. Also, you are still within their processing times so in their mind there's no 'delay' as of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MaryLynott Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 With the processing times changing every 12 days or whatever it is, that's not to say it will change, it could be stuck on April 27 for some time now again.

Getting fed up of waiting and getting no information from my RMA about what is happening and want to try and find out what is going on. Iv done this myself you will get no positive answers if you are still within the processing time frame. Also your RMA may find out you have been in contact and may not be to happy. Thats what happened with me anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
