Is there a way to track application online after lodging ITA?

The application being processed means that the CO is checking that all your evidence is genuine. For every piece, s/he will contact someone who can state from their own knowledge that what you have said is true. The CO has to wait till there have been replies from all until things can go on to the next stage.

The CO will also be working 70 - 80 other cases in rotation with yours. See here to see what that entails. http://www.enz.org/forum/showthread....573#post533573 So some of the time that is passing is because of other cases, and is not due to special problems with yours.

If you applied online, you probably have the link already set. Otherwise, call the contact centre and ask them to send you a link to set online status enquiry.

Thanks. I have submitted EOI online and see the EOI status "Decision successful". Do you refer to this link?

This Refers to your EOI which have been selected from the Pool. You may receive an email about the Same. After screening of details provided in EOI, Immigration officials may releases ITA. Screening process may take up to 1 Month. In my case it took just One Day.

Thanks mate, I did get the ITA email and sent all required documents. I was just checking how to track the status after filing ITA? Like in your case, how did you know your application was lodged on a specific date?
