My interim visa expires on 25 January. Because I had not heard from my CO (Wellington) in 3ish months, I called him on Tuesday. I gave him my application number and then there was a long silence followed by "oh... oh... yes". I think he then realised he had forgotten about me. He said he would make a decision very soon and that I would probably hear back from him this week.
Yesterday I had the sound of my phone off from 6.30pm until 7.30pm and at 7.30PM I saw that I had missed a call from "unknown number" at 7.24pm. Could that have been the call with news? I just checked my emails (inbox, junk and spam) and looked in my application page online: no change. I'm still on an interim visa and my work visa application (this is why they gave me the interim visa while they process the work one) is still pending?
My questions are: does your CO call you in the evening, do they work in the weekend and public holidays (as 25 Jan is Wellington Anniversary Day)? Probably not but I just wanted to ask.
