some great news at last
Just got back from dropping the in laws off at heathrow as they are off to oz to see my wifes brother.As i walked in the front door the phone rang and it was our agent to say that ACT Canberra have accepted our application for state sponsoship.Only took them 5 days from getting the application to getting the reply.Im over the moon as i got made redundant a few weeks back and was on a downer.We were all set to be sponsered by my wifes brother but he let us down at the last minute!!!!!So this news has really come at a good time.All thats left is to get the ok from dima.Are we through to worst of it and does it get easier?????????One good thing the agent said was that the state sponsership's have a quick turnaround time so fingers crossed.
