About flipping time mate! Very pleased for you all.

I reckon I'm going tobe doing the straight to permanent res application when we eventually get round to lodging, so I'll be plugging you for advice on that one.

See, the best things are worth waiting for! Enjoy your partying mate.

Congratulations - how hung over are you now, or does the clean room have oxygen on tap?

BTW what is the difference between a sub class 100 and a 309?

Mr Anya was smirking over exactly that same condition on our visa - that I may not enter Oz before him. He plans to make me walk 10 paces behind, with my head bowed subserviently like a good little wifey!

At Sydney airport the sign at immigration says citizens and family turn up with your Mrs at that q and get processed together.

A 309 is a provisional (temporary) spouse visa issued to De-Facto and Spouse applicants who have been together less than 5 years (less than 2 years where kids are involved). 2 Years after application in the UK a 309er becomes a 100 (permanent resident) after resubmitting evidence, more stat decs etc to prove you are still a couple.

My timeline was

Application lodged 30 Oct 2001
Visa granted Mid Feb 2002
Entered Oz 5 May 2002
Received final stage forms 1 August 2003
Forms submitted 14 August 2003
On Holiday Oct Nov when decision was due so informed DIMIA
PR Sub Class 100 granted after holiday 15 Nov 2003

100 is permanent residency. On arrival a 100 holder is entitled to all the benefits a PR is entitled to.

A 309 is a temporary residency. Nara had to wait till she got her 100 before she could finalise her uni application. A lot of jobs are for PRs only (by choice of the employer).

As a temporary resident a mortgage would need a 20% deposit (if based on my income) and my credit scoring would be lower.

The best thing about you getting PR 100 is you do not need to go through the application again in 2 years time. Just think if you had to do another character check.
