Default Yahoo -Visa arrival at last!!!!

At last we have just received an email from Sydney that our temp visa has been approved!
Its taken seven months of hard work but its finally here.
Still cant believe it really, at last we can book our flight.
Sooo excited now. Its finally hit us that we are really going.
We had our meds about three weeks ago and were getting a bit worried that we hadnt heard anything
Good luck to all of you still waiting

only took 7 months as we started off on a skilled independant application, then hubby got a sponsor through work so we changed to a tempo 457just to get us out there, and we are also still in the process of an employer nomination for a permanent visa, should be approx 6 months.
The temp visa only took about a month and a half to process in total.
I am really giddy just finished work today, and we fly out 1st september cost us £1200 for 2 adults and a child seat with singapore only stopping to change aircraft at Singapore.30 kilos each including child and 7kg each hand luggage.

good luck to everyone in the process, and thanks to everyone for the advice and for keeping me sane through this emotional roller coaster!!!


xxxxx
Love Gracey
PS flight tickets arrived today!!!
Move out of our house 13th august into parents for 2 weeks then the big step to Australia, our new home and new life!

Can't bloody wait..............................
