Ahh, thanks, understood - so, considering I have an ASIC, I didn't need to give CASA $171 in the AVID renewal application I just sent off? Nice of them to tell me when I called enquiring about it. Bugger.
Zapp, sorry buddy but you've been dudded. Remember when you speak to CLARC in CASA you are talking generally to junior office clerks who have not got the faintest idea of what they are doing. I could go on for hours citing instances of their monumental screwups. I know for a fact even Johnny Mac himself says that office needs to lift it's game.

Quick ASIC Renewal
Canberra Airport took 5 working days to renew my ASIC last month;
Dropped off the paperwork on Friday afternoon and picked up my new ASIC the following Friday.

TB,
spot on mate, that is the way to do it. At the moment, every security controlled airport is an ASIC issuing body. Many will process your ASIC particularly if you are based at their airport, cheaper and faster than the thieving fools at CASA.

Similar here. 10 days through Merimbula/CASA. Thats 10 days, not 10 working days! Credit where its due 
They still stole a month though. JAN expiry even though I waited till FEB to send it...

I sent my renewal off to Merimbula for a CASA issued ASIC on 1 March, noticed Aviation ID Aus have debited the $186 fee to my card on March 8.
I'm hoping I am doing the same renewal you did and get it as fast.
Mine expires end of this month and recently found out I have to fly out of a security controlled airport April 1 for the whole of easter weekend... now getting very nervous if new ASIC will come in time
Glekichi, just to confirm, this was your renewal for an original CASA issued ASIC but via the Aviation ID Aus renewal process they now have with the docs going to Merimbula?
It sounds like there is still plenty of time so my guess is that you will be fine.
well, success.

You just really cant be that for service (soon as they receive clearance new card in the mail same day) What a stark contrast to what goes on at CASA. The people on the phone there are actually enthusiastic, helpful and want to tell you where you are at in the process if you call and ask. Very comforting when you sweating on getting it in time.
Much love to Aviation ID Australia...

Black writing is for use East of the 0 variation Isogonal, and white writing is for use West of the 0 variation Isogonal. You can pull in at YSCR and do a swap.
Red ones work for any security controlled aerodrome, others are just for the place of issue I believe (?)
The black text on the red background was always a pain but the example in the regs was displayed that way. Many issuing bodies from the outset though produced cards with white font. In the next round of regulation changes, white will be specified for all ASICs (except white ASICS 😀
