received.
These processing arrangements will end 30 June 2011 and date of lodgement
order processing will resume.
Queries on allocated cases should be sent to the case officer through the team mailbox listed on

Escalation Channels
Efforts are made to keep responses to enquiries within service standards, two work days.
Where responses are not received to multiple enquiries on the same matter, or emails
need to be escalated to a senior GSM managers attention, they should be made to the
following staff:
We request that eVisa applicants and agents attach documents to the web-browser where
possible. Anything that can not be attached should be sent in one email.
Email: the team mailbox as advised by case officer (for allocated cases)
Email: gsm.documents@immi.gov.au (for unallocated cases).
