That would be cool to be the 4 millionth person. What was the prize? Anything good?

I know exactly how you're feeling Jo, we got our visas last week and i was forever inpatiently ranting on here.

I've sent you some karma to help speed up the process.
All the the best

We're heading for Melbourne, we waited 10 weeks after they received our meds when all around us were getting theirs, it's bloody hard mate but now 8 days later you start to wonder why you got yourself so stressed. :rolleyes:

We just cant plan anything, cos everything hangs on getting this visa, or not! My Son is due to start secondary school in September and we really would like to have got visa by then and have gone, but as each week passes, its becomming more unlikely!

I JUST WANT A YES OR A NO NOW!!!!!!! IM FED UP WITH WAITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rant over, feel slightly better now. Anyone else in same boat, or is it just me being impatient?

Jo

Hi Jo we are in the same position waiting, waiting and our case officer in oz hasn't even replied to our email as we are wondering whether there is anything outstanding to support our visa app.

I wouldn't worry about schooling for your youngest too much as Oz schooling starts in January so it will prob be in his or her best interest to start the new year with everyone else!!

Good luck and keep us informed with your application

you mean his own statement?? ive done a draft but glenn newton told us to wait until we sent off new stuff we had managed to get and that would give him an idea of what his own personal statement would need to cover i.e. any missing details.

i have managed to get gerard's old manager from shell (old friend who came to our kids christenings and all that so we go back a way) to do a more detailed reference also and we off to midlands next week to see old managed from gilbarco so hopefully 2nd application will be lot better than the first!!! which actually wouldnt be all that hard!! :rolleyes:

Well done, It sounds like you've dug yourselves out of that hole you were in and have anew lease of life about it. I was the same i really couldn't face doing itkept putting it of , but once it gained some momentum I was fine.


How's the new bathroom coming along

I know how you feel mate, sent our spouse visa off on Thursday, they recieved on Friday. Now just waiting for an answer, we both feel very confident. We would like a definate answer though. I guess it's just a game of patience. Good luck with it all mate.
