We got our Visas!!!!!
 
I can't believe that it's finally happened. We submitted immigration application back 12th March 04.

Flights are booked for the 1st March - very excited but very nervous, mostly about leaving family - isn't everyone?

Afraid didn't keep detailed timeline but it went something like this:

Applied to TRA for 136 Skilled 2003 - got it approved within a couple of weeks.

Immigration Application to Adelaide - 12th March 04
Submitted Medicals/xrays ahead of time - August/Sept 04
Submitted Police Checks - December 1st 04
Asked for Visa to be advanced due to Mrs J pregnancy and needing to fly.
Approved 11th December
Informed by Adelaide Police Checks were 'lost' - 22nd December
New Police Checks sent - Jan 5th 05 by Fedex
Found original Police Checks - 6th Jan 05
Asked for Bond - 14th Jan
Lodged Bond - 14th Jan
Visa Approval - 7th February I DON'T BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!! :beer:

Perth here we come :D

Mrs J :)

Thanks Guys. I only wish I had found this forum a damn site earlier. However, the regulars are probably quite relieved I didn't! :p
