a packed up.. still no visa
well the house has sold, john masons came today and packed up our wordly goods and they are now sleeping happily in storage as we await our visa. (august applicants)
I have to say i cant fault john masons so far, the lads that came today were fantastic and val in the office has been very efficient. I wanted to cry as our furniture drove up the road, next time we will see it will be in oz. We are now at mother in laws and i have a dongle for my internet lol
.
I feel sad at moving this time (we had sale collapse last yr after already moving long story). Now im panicking what if we dont get visa lol. Everything is set, need to sus out exchaning money etc but wow its like a big step has already taken place..just give me the visa
My advise to anyone about to get packers in, sort sort sort early. We had huge lists and still mistakes were made (not on packers my husband in his wisdom decided certain things were taken to mils which were not meant to be) oh well they were not that important but be organised, clean everything, we did in advance made it so much easier, i.e pictures on wall etc.
It went quite smoothly really, i guess we were lucky x

) for visa grant at the moment I'm getting worried that selling the house now is going to be to early. If it takes 8 weeks for the sale 2 go through that still possibly leaves 12 weeks until August to find somewhere to live. Then again DIAC may decide to get a move on and shift the backlog before end of year on 30th June
Got shippers coming in for a quote next week so thanks for the tip!

Re: a packed up.. still no visa
If house prices do fall as is predicted, it could be the best thing they ever did. Have you sold your house yet? I wish we'd sold ours.
Good luck Clare, there's no reason you won't get your visa hun.

Re: a packed up.. still no visa
I sold my UK house after I got my visa. Getting my visa took about 18 months and included an appeal process. Maybe I'm over cautious.
