There are many including me who have shared their frustration on the same issue. I have applied on 14th Jan 2009 and still awaiting response. There is no phone or email contact to ciu , sydney. You are absolutely right on postal delays or losing the mail in transit. you can still do few things
1. If sent by courier, track the acknowledgement. If sent by registered mail, check with postal department for proof of delivery.
2. Enquire and get confirmation from your bank as to when demand draft or money order was encashed by beneficiary.
3. Write letter to CIU, Sydney enquiring about your application and send by post or courier as it is the only available mode at present.
4. Try requesting for CAIPS though I believe it may not work at this stage as you do not have a AOR.

Best of luck and wish me too...

CIU Sydney will NOT correspond with you, as long as the application was received, you will have to wait for as long as it takes.

PMM is right.

My application was sent on October 15, 2008. I am 100% sure that my occupation is in the new ministerial list. My bank draft was encashed last December 20, 2008.

It is already March 20th...and I am still patiently waiting. They say the average waiting time for them to confirm anything (file number or request additional docs) is 4 to 6 months. So that means I have until April to wait patiently.

A few months back, it used to take 4 years, sometimes even more, for the whole process to be completed. So when you think about it, 6 months isn't at all that bad hey?
