thanks for the support my friends

I know that this time next year we will be happily settled in Oz and this will be a distant memory.

Good luck to all

Thought I would release my frustrations by giving an update on our trials and tribulations in relation to getting permission from my ex for our daughter age 10 years to emigrate.
Back in Feb we went on holiday to Oz, OH has family there, fell in love with the lifestyle etc and on return applied for a job (nurse) got job offer in 3 weeks, got state registration in 2 weeks all good so far. Had solicitor appointment in early March thanks to forum to go through preliminaries to get permission from ex who has not had contact for 5 years. Letters sent, no reply, stat dec sent, no reply, court application made simultaneously with 457 app as all was looking good that he had disappeared. Then on court day last Monday 13th he APPEARS and guess what he does cross application to get residency after all this time. Our meds had been in LCU since early July and the backlogs gave us a good excuse for being slow proceeding with job offer/start date. However today Meds all finalized and solicitor says next court appearance will be 5th Nov after final CAFCASS report and final hearing will probably be early in New Year. Have been quoted £4000 Plus..

Well what now...do you think a job offer will be kept open that long? Has anyone been left in this position?

I know so many people are having similar issues on BE but even so you still feel alone and frustrated and angry and AGHHHHH...

Sarah
Can't believe you've had to go through all of this. I was in a similar situation with my 11 year old son. My ex did not have parental responsibility, as we were not married and the law did not change till a few years later which now means any father named on birth cert automatically gets PR. As ex has not been in touch for 5 years my OH applied for PR and got it. We then applied to court asking if an order could be given to satisfy visa requirements...judge said there was no order he could give other than Residency and as ex has no legal rights then we did not need this. So, we got our solicitor to quote the relevant section of current law and this has been enough as we've now got our visa. I presume you were married to your ex? If not then surely your ex does not have PR?......
This must be a awful for you, I know it was our worst nightmare.
Antonia.

Good Luck - will be thinking of you...

An update from me - Went to London on Monday - passports issued no questions just filled in the passport forms, B8(i think), took stat decs with me just in case... but in the end he just ticked everything took copies of BC's and citizenship certs and was easy peasy - so all my worrying for nothing. Not even any probs with photos LOL
