That'll do nicely thank you!
I worked out from the fist punched in the air when dh collected his e-mail tonight that we have finally got our PR! 
We have converted from a 457 to ENS and as a guideline for anyone looking to do the same, we applied back at the beginning of March. Had some delays due to problems with the medicals at the end of March, which caused a hold-up of about eight weeks in total while we arranged blood pressure monitoring and GP follow-ups. The medicals were cleared and then submitted to DIMIA at the beginning of June and the visa has been granted today. So not bad going, all in all.
Tonight there is a much greater sense of security around the house!

Re: That'll do nicely thank you!
Many congrats.
We are in discussion at the moment about changing from 457 to ENS. The main drawback (however short sighted this may seem to some people) is that the extra tax relief is really helping us at the mo, and we would lose that as soon as we applied.
Any advice/top tips (other than keeping our fingers crossed that the meds are ok) for anyone about to tread the ENS path??
