Tracking of INZ backlog from lodgement to CO assignment

[sona]

This thread is opened to keep a track of CO assignment to the Lodgement Date so that all applicants understand the current backlog in INZ!

Last someone mentioned that, early Oct-2018 lodgement guys getting CO assigned!

So just requesting everyone to help keeping this thread updated with latest so everyone can benefit from this information.

You can also mention which category VISA so things might be different for different categories!

Oh! Thank you for sharing! I saw somewhere they mentioned OCT CO assignment started but may be SMC queue still behind. We pray 🙏 to god that your CO assignment wait should end soon. Good luck 👍

Our SMC application was lodged on 10 Oct, still waiting for CO as well. Initial letter from INZ said that CO will be allocated within 3 months from the lodgement date, it has been 4 months and still waiting...hopefully we are close to getting CO now 👍
