Devil

Did a PPL test the other day. Ugly.

...but another ATO tells me the forms have changed AGAIN and have gone back to two pages

Your taxpayer dollars hard at work, boys and girls

Did my IRT about a month ago. Filling out the form took longer than the test! Would be glad to hear it has gone back to two pages, most of what they were asking for they already have on file...

No, I just checked, it hasn't gone back to two pages. Yeah, a PPL test for someone who needs a Level 6 and FROL is really ugly. 16 pages, ARN gets written down some 16 times, candidate name gets written in 8 odd times etc. If it was a paper war before it is paper armageddon now.
Hopefully enough ATO's give feedback to get it reveresed or simplified. It's the only hope.

Did my MECIR renewal last week. Pages and pages of filling out the same stuff over and over. Demonstrates a sheer lack of intellect by CASA or clear understanding of what information the actually need.
