Hi tracey, we went the skilled independant 136 route as me as the main applicant. We went as a de-facto couple. It was just under 11 months from main application to visa granted.

Also, we never used an agent, heard too many stories about them all

Hi there, hopefully feb, march 2004, once all the loose ends are sorted at this end.

I've noticed flight prices go right down in April, one way to OZ, Are you sorting out somewhere to stay before you get there?

We've booked a bed and breakfast that has a couple of self-contained units. I've only got it for a couple of weeks, but hopefully that will be enough time to find somewhere to rent. We don't even know where we want to live yet, but we have a couple of starting points.
