I applied on 1 April 2012. When i called them yesterday they mentioned that due to heavy flow of applications the process can take as long as 4 to 5 weeks.

Uptill march it used to be one day to one week process.

Fingers crossed

Hey all! Long time lurker, but relatively new to posting. I'm just wondering if anyone has heard back from VIC in 8 weeks or less. I'm in week 8 now and from what I've been reading in this thread, it seems to be taking 12 weeks or more to hear back from them. The thought of having to wait another 4 weeks for a response is a form of torture I don't think I'll be able to handle! Haha.

Congrats to everyone that's gotten their SS!

Yeah, I heard back in 3-4 weeks, I think (check my timeline below). I think it depends on a lot of factors - how many requests they have coming in at any one time, etc. I heard someone say they also have country quotas, so that could either speed things up or slow things down for you, depending (not sure how true that is, just something I heard).

I got in exactly 8 weeks and applicants from US get in 4 weeks! but this is jsut stat collected from this forum so might not hold true
