Thanks to all for your congrats
we applied under skilled indep 136 darren is an electrician.
Our agent was go matilda, from sending visa off in november with a fresh work reference (not the same one we used for our tra and payslips)
we have heard nothing from dimia apart from the pre grant......
We recieved our pre grant 4 weeks after we sent our meds in still not knowing if we had a case officer or not and also not knowing if they had recieved our meds, we were very supprised to hear that our visas were here.
we were expecting some correspondance from dimia in around 4/6 weeks has the nov meds were being requested.

hope all this makes sence.......

Hi Leanne

We too applied Nov (27th), but haven't heard anything yet although a heavy weight has been lifted off my shoulders today. House to go on market in two weeks, meds in three weeks (unrequested so far) and brian in seel everything mode.

Good luck too you and hopefully we won't be too far behind.

Have a drink on me. LOL
