24/10/05 Did Meds/pcc unrequested - agents advice
9/11/05 DIMIA request meds,pccs and aos
11/11/05 Sent off pccs to agents and doctor sent off meds to DIMIA
16/11/05 Agents receive docs and send them to DIMIA

Thank you all for your replies. Just booked our tickets today. Going in June!! Can't wait. Also very nervous about starting our new life.

Kozzae, I don't know what to tell you about getting your meds, pccs done unrequested. Only reason we did them unrequested (6 months after our application was lodged) was because our agents told us to do them. Two weeks later they were requested so agents must have known the average timeline. Don't forget that once you do the pcc's and meds they are valid for 1 year and you will have to make your entry into Australia before that dead line.

Good luck with your application

Marina x
