At £20 a throw its happened twice now!

Also used Royal Mail but their secure post is also sign for. And is only tracked to OZ. Once in Oz they can't track it.

I have to send some copies of stuff out and this time I am going to risk normal post its prob just as quick.
hi tilly

just did recorded delivery to oz through the 'wonderful' royal mail... haven't had problems in the past with them, but it should have been there in a few days and thats now been over a week.....

the post office don't really care as it had no monetary value, but its my sanity im concerned about if i need to fill one more form/police check or whatever out!!!!! :curse:

im hoping CB has got it by monday or im going to find a big oven to stick my head in! lol

its worth scrolling back through the previous threads, even if it takes you a day as there are a lot of good pointers and i imagine EVERYTHING has been covered from first application to actually moving there! lucky buggers!

Have you thought about changing your mortgage to intrest only although you will not pay any capital off, the payments will be reduced and when the market improves you can sell it at the price you first wanted

Sounds like a possible option if the sale does not happen. Cheers mate!

Cheers thanks for that scottie,
I caved in at the counter and ended up sending it signed 4 so thats good to know, hopefully thats the last of the paperwork. Good to see visas being processed within 3wks!! Has anyone been told if their applications have been filed yet?

I had similar problems with some of my forms. When they moved offices they lost my first medical & a few of my other forms & then there was a mix up as there is someone applying who has exactly the same name as me!! Now whenever I send something I phone up to make sure they've got it & they know who it's from! Still it all worked out in the end, my flight is now booked & I leave on 22nd August. Anyone else on the Sept 1st course?

Hi not sure if this was answered earlier. With regards to the 3 week reply, what type of Visa was applied for?
Ta and congratulations.

Hi, it was a 147 Permanent Residence Visa, sponsored under a labour agreement by QAS. Hope that helps.
