Our timeline is at http://www.austimeline.com/austime/a...yApp.jsp?id=51

AHC = Aus High Commission, London. It took about an hour to get the stamp put in this morning...BTW they only open between 9-11am.

And we both cant stop smiling....Off to the pub now to celebrate!

Why do you need to get a stamp... am I being thick

We sent our Passports to London as we live in Jersey and they came back with the Visa's in them, then we will be going to Oz in October to validate them.

What are you doing thats different??

P.s, Do you have hangover???

p.p.s. Can't wait to have a schooner of VB
oh my word im excited!!!!

Hi Jasmin,

Alright, it's more of a large sticker than a stamp I suppose. It still looks fantasitic though!

We're doing nothing different - In true Aussie style, I just "took a sickie" to go to the offices in London as opposed to posting them.


Hangover - well, I did feel a bit rough this morning :)

VB still makes me laugh - I'm a Java programmer...(sad techie joke..)

The visa label is the same thing as the 'stamp' But that's only the evidence of the
visa - which you need to show the immigration officer and employers etc in Australia
- not the visa itself. Which is a good thing as otherwise you'd have real problems if
your passport was lost/stolen.

Hi Jeremy,

what would happen if you did loose or have your passport stolen?

Can you get a replacement?

Susan
