INZ takes longer time to process ?.

[arvin]

Hi All,

It’s been 13 months since I got assigned a case officer and I have not been scheduled an interview yet. I was told by INZ earlier that my case will be processed within 12 months once CO is assigned. When I contacted them, I was told my application is still under process and no further documents are required.

Is it normal for INZ to take more time than what they estimated before ?.

Anyone faced such similar situation before ?.

Hello arvin
INZ has transfered 100 smc applications to london nz branch.i lodged my application in feb. 2014 and still waiting for co.

Any timing INZ tells you is their best guess, based on what has just recently been happening, but nothing they say is a promise. It's absolutely normal that some people finish up waiting longer than they expected.
