So it's not too soon. And the sooner the better, isn't it
By the way the CO won't contact you or your employer until he needs to verify something, and at the same time there are many other cases allocated to him as well.
Good luck

Which branch u hv lodged ur file?

[coolnicewise]

Auckland central branch...

My Boss received and replied the Questionnaire...but i have not received any communication from CO...

Why everything is happening so fast...is it normal ???

Most people would give rather a lot of good things to have their processing get started so quickly - don't complain!

[coolnicewise]

I am not complaining JandM bro..i am excited though...

Why CO has not asked anything from me? or why didnt he introduce himself before sending questionnaire to my Boss..will he introduce or are there any cases where CO doesnt even communicate and residency gets approved..hehe..so many questions..

Hi coolnice
May i ask which occuptaion u have applied for?

Why CO has not asked anything from me?

He presumably has all the information he needs for the moment, included in the evidence you sent with the ITA.

or why didnt he introduce himself before sending questionnaire to my Boss..

Not all COs routinely contact the applicant when the case is assigned to them.

will he introduce or are there any cases where CO doesnt even communicate and residency gets approved

He probably won't introduce himself after this, as he didn't do it in the first place. It would be very rare for someone not to have had ANY contact from the CO during processing, but I believe it has happened. My guess is that you might have a call from him, to talk about your job (how it matches the ANZSCO listing), when he has had the boss's replies to the questionnaire.

Does anyone knows if Auckland Central has this same times frame information?
