I've also called twice. The first time when my app was received after the quoted number of days (early Jan)... and they couldn't even find it. He told me 1-2 weeks. Three weeks later (last week) I called and she told me that the number of days means nothing and I have to pay attention to the date they are processing from. She told me that they process in order of receipt. However, my coworker is sponsoring her husband, submitted Dec 13 and got approval Jan 11. She would not comment on that case (the first guy told me that my coworker must be lying... I sit right beside her and watched her submit her forms...) What I did get out of the second call was my Client ID number. As I was born in Canada I didn't have a UCI and couldn't track things before this. So now I know they have my file... but the calls haven't moved it at all.Mevakesh said:I've called them couple times in the last two weeks, but was told I have to wait until the date shown is past the date they received my package. In my case it has to be past Nov. 21. I was ready to call today assuming they would at least move couple days
I'm guessing if something was wrong with the app they would have returned it by now. Maybe they are waiting for a 3rd party to confirm some info, or they are done and just forgot to notify.
I want to call them again, but not sure if they make notes on the system. Don't want to annoy them heh.
I did notice that things seem to be moving quicker in Sydney from the other spreadsheet... so I'm really hoping that we have good luck in stage 2! My partner is coming back to visit in Aug for my brother's wedding... would be great if he had PR then!
