Re: Contributory Parent Visa - Still Sparkling!!! - Part 4
Hah! Well spotted. I was wary about being hunted down and duffed up by a band of gas cylinder-wielding camping enthusiasts, as "tent" would have been in there somewhere.
I can aspire to a studio - just.
Cheers

Re: Contributory Parent Visa - Still Sparkling!!! - Part 4
here I am back again with bad news - I am so glad that most of you have good news to impart - me, not so much..............
we got a letter from our case officer this morning telling us that our application has been refused - based upon my daughter's mild (says that in the papers they prepared) intellectual disability - they have given us 49 days to respond but have not told us what we need to do..........................it is so frustrating - my daughter Heather on thegold coast is going to be devestated as are Catherine and me.
My biggest concern is that maybe they won't even give catherine a year tourist visa now (based on the possibility that she might try to stay - ) she isn't a drain on the government and she can work - wiping tables or serving in a cafe etc.
I had to vent I am just devastated and am trying to do all kinds of things to avoid unleashing my tears - catherine has gone to work and I don't want to upset her more - I know that none of you can do anything but it feels good to vent!.................
thanks for listening!

Re: Contributory Parent Visa - Still Sparkling!!! - Part 4
This is not a good time for you Audie, and I echo the comments of Les. Gill (Gollywobbler) is an excellent resource for us all. She may for example suggest that you discuss your case with an experienced agent, but a large part of your next move will depend on the seriousness of the condition as all residence visa applications (not just parents) are assessed against expected future care costs. The last thing you need is to throw money at a problem if the likelihood of success is remote.
I can't imagine that visits to Australia would be a problem if normal financial support is in place.

Re: Contributory Parent Visa - Still Sparkling!!! - Part 4
Audie, I can only echo what others have said before me and that we all feel for you in your situation. The fear of refusal is something most of us have at some stage during the long wait and to be faced with your predicament must be heart breaking. I would also go along with the suggestion that Gill Palmer a.k.a. Gollywobbler, who can be found on Poms in Oz, would be a good judge of what your next move should be.
Good luck and I sincerely hope that everything will work out well for you in the end,
Eric.

Hi Audie
These are very trying times and I am never that good at what to say except, sorry. I have read the other replies and hope you find an answer soon.
To Phyllis,
congratulations, but a bit muted, sorry
