Our house sale will be completed in next couple of weeks then we are renting it back.If anything happened and we did not get it we are not staying in london anyway and can rent our house back as long as needed so its not a problem to us.I like living dangerously!!!!!!!!!! Our agent also has a 100% sucess rate so we are counting on him.My husband is an electrician and corgi reg gas.

Maybe you should give the DIMIA a ring about your case number as we got ours in around 2 weeks.You give them your name and address and they give it to you over the phone so at least then you can frontload meds if you want to.You should ring them about 11pm. I am not sure of the number but if you look on previous threads there is the number somewhere, i will keep looking so keep an eye on this thread.

It seems having a job on the MODL list isn't everything! I have read at least half a dozen post's on Oz timeline that have people on the MODL and still waiting for a CO even after 5/6 months..there doesnt seem to be no set routine for Visa allocations of whatever type,so it really is being in the right place at the right time.Front loading,my agent says' doesnt mean nothing and whatever plans we sort or think of sorting before the big push ie house sales,accommodation set up,bank accounts etc is all wishful thinking
..moral of the story...Dont count your chickens..if you were meant to go,then you will go...always have a plan B..just in case plan A hits the fan

..Of course you can me West Ham mucker ...because like you as soon as Im informed of my Visa,if its good ..we are off! BUT like I said you can't get carried away and think its all gonna fall on your lap! We have got the idea in our heads now that even if we dont make Oz,we are sooo made up on movin' then plan B kick's in and we'll still move.. ie Cyprus/Spain?? so thats why everything is ready to go in terms of house sale and meds done etc.We seem to be on nearly the same timelines so we'll keep in touch eh?? Good luck

so you are up to the same as us.If this fails you have a plan b.My agent is always so positive but after reading your first reply i thought you new something i did not.You see our agent said MODL are priority and also if you have frontloaded at the time you get your visa that would have been when they were req, so it makes a couple of weeks difference.Have you been told different?keep in touch you can always pm me
