Are We Ever Going To Get There!!!!!!!
My husband and I are waiting and waiting and waiting for our request for medicals and it seems like forever since we have heard from anyone. We had our application lodged with the DIMIA in Sept and we thought we would have heard by now! 
and to make things even more frustrating is our house has been on the market since November and we was hoping we would have sold it by now, getting very inpatient and cant settle anymore, I know it propbably dont sound that long but it seems like forever to us. Is there anyone else that is feeling like this or are we just going mad. It has taken a year and a half to get this far. The only thing that settles us down is

The waiting is the worst part.
The housing market is supposed to pick up this time of year. Have a word with the estate agent and tell them to get it marketed a bit more. We have decided to give our agent 6 weeks, then if we haven't had an offer or much interest, we are changing agents.
As for the Visa, which have you applied for.

Estate agents are money grabbling machines (she says, and we havn't even put ours on market yet
)Just remember you are paying them, if they are not doing a good job, haggle their price or get another agent in (easier said than done sometimes i know)
Fingers crossed for you, sending karma your way too, (hope it's not blank!)

The only thing that settles us down is The commitment on DIMIA's side is that 139 applicants will be allocated a case officer within 4 months. You're over that now, so I suggest contacting them and saying that you are a priority case, but haven't heard anything.
