We posted our DIMIA mega form on 17th April again by bog standard registered mail and got an email acknowledement on 3rd May. We have applied under State Nomination as we didn't quite have enough points (jim nearly 40, hee hee!) and they replied within days with a positive result. Heading for Adelaide. Went on holiday last year to Perth/Western Aus ) and Sydney, loved it so much but South Australia is the only State nominating gas fitters at the moment. Keeping checking my emails every day, and going off your threads reckon it's gonna be a while!!!

Any tips from anyone would be very welcome!
Jim & Kathryn

Hello newcomers, welcome. Watch out for that naughty Bixie, he's a big bad cat sometimes, rude double entendres etc, whereas I am a well-behaved little pussycat, though some things rub my fur the wrong way... :p
