Hello and welcome to the forum,

We are moving to Oz in 8 weeks, we have got our visa and sold the house so just waiting to complete and then we are off!

Good luck with your visa app and the chaos that goes with it!!!!!

Where are you hoping to settle?

Vikki

Hi
We are hoping to get to Perth in August.
What jobs do you do??
We looked into PR but now got a sponsorship through an employer, which is a temporary visa, hopefully leading to pr.
We have front loaded our meds and police checks, some people advise this and some people say wait until your are requested to do so. In the end you have to make your own mind up. Just remember that the meds and police checks last for 12months, so if your visa has not been granted you will have to do them again!! Our medicals cost about £850 and police checks £10 each, so it is up to you!

Any other questions just send a private message (PM).
