We are looking at Carramar or maybe down Rockingham way, we have distant relatives in Wellington, so we may check that out too. We have 3 kids, so we'ld like to have them begin school at the beginning of the third term which is July 24 or 25 I believe instead of part way through a term if possible, but who knows, it's a lot to get sorted out, work, a good area, good schools, good shopping, good shopping and more good shopping!!!! haha. Have you been to Perth before? We've never been, but I've heard good things about carramar from people on this site, so it's on our short list.

Congratulations Karen and Family!

I hope your house sells fast.

We too are going on a 136, sent our visa app last September too, our agent says there is a major delay, and probably looking at getting our visa's in August. :(

I must do our time line! :mad:
