We were acknowledged in November 02. Request to do our meds was at the end of May and the Yes letter arrived on the 5th September 03. If you can get ahead and get your police report I would as this put us behind for a few weeks. Our med reports were returned from the doctor within 2 days of having them done. Good luck with your application and keep in touch .

We applied for our police check's early on [I think our agent wanted to know if we had any skeletons in the closet] , they were back on the same day the application arrived at Adelaide. When we got the request for medicals they were still good for 6 months. Funny thing is I assumed that validation had to be done within 12 months of the police checks or medicals which ever was earlier, our meds were done in June and our police checks are dated 23 Dec 2002 yet we have to validate before Feb 22nd 2004. It looks like they have given us another 2 months as a bonus I'm hoping we don't need it as the house is up for exchange of contracts in a couple of weeks and completion just after. If all goes well we'll be there by end of October.

Hi Lisa
Don`t know what comp problems you have had but our computers were hit really hard by the virus. Managed to get things sorted and have just installed the Norton Internet Security and so far ....... touching lots of wood we have had no problems.
There was a huge thread a few weeks ago about computer stuff have a look on the archives.
Really pleased your mum is a little better and the bruises will heal in time.
Take it easy
