Glad for you, sounds like good news and very quick.

Are your details on austimeline? What ASCO code did you apply under? MODL? Sponsored etc? Would love to know your details to compare with our situation as we logded same day! Did you use an agent?
Cheers

Cheers, and thanks for the info

We have applied under IT System Manager and went through the ACS first. It's so difficult to tell how long it will take, some people wait 10 months for the request for meds and some get it very fast (although yours does indeed sound like a record time). We're hoping that it'll happen in about 6 months there's just no telling.

Well done again and enjoy the ride from here on in. I hear that things move quickly once you're past this point. Good to hear some positive news that things at ASPC are moving quickly.

All the best. Where you headed?

Heading to Perth, how about you? We were kinda hoping for a breather before the process really started, but hey, who's complaining!
Fingers crossed for everyone else in the same position.

regards, t.c

Know what you mean. If it happens too fast we won't have sold our house (we are putting up bond money) and if it takes ages, well it just doesn't bear thinking about. I'm a nervous wreck after only a couple of weeks!

Perth sounds great, never been, but will definitely check it out before we settle anywhere. We have so far settled on MacKay area, North of Brissie.

Good luck to you and have a great new life over there.
