ATPL CAR 61 changes

Hi all,

Was wondering what people have heard WRT when the CAR 61 ATPL changes are coming into effect, i.e the requirement for a flight test? I know that the date that CASA is publishing is Dec 4th but I am hearing different things about when you need to have your paperwork in to get an ATPL under the current system.
For the most part I have been told (by CASA) that you only need to meet all of the requirements and have you paper work to CASA by Dec 4th.
Other people have been told (also by CASA) that you need to get your paper work to them a "month or so" before Dec 4th to allow CASA time to process and issue your ATPL by Dec 4th.
I am fairly confident that the former is correct (As this is what I was told when I called CLARC at CASA) but given the sh*t fight that seems to be CASA at the moment I am hesitant to hang my hat on it. Does anyone have any other gouge WRT this?

Thanks.
