Re: yellow envelope
 

Thanks everyone,party s definately on us tonight,anyone near peterborough. :beer:

although we already new it had been granted,theres still nothing like actually getting it.

Nothing very mysterious sam, just a yellow envelope with a couple of bits of paper in it,one saying your visas have been granted and the other telling you about visa evidencing in london, and validating it in oz and becoming an australian citizen,ect.not much really,but ive never been so pleased to recieve a couple of A4 sheets of paper in my life.


hope to see some of you when we get over there :beer: :beer: :beer:

Re: yellow envelope
 

Hi Tracey..

Thanks for that..

I sent TRA in Feb 04, after a bit of hassle got positive result in July, sent application off in Aug 04, again some hassle over past experience and references (had to trace my employer who I served apprenticeship
with 18 years ago.. :eek: )

Then no news until med requests on New Years Eve... :rolleyes:

Had our medicals two weeks ago, now the long wait... :(

Hoping to go to Perth, my brother and his family live there also..

All the best to you and yours Tracey, good luck

Thanks again

Deb... :)

Re: yellow envelope
 

Well Im pretty pleased for you as well with the sponsorship thingy.

Hows your TRA going? :)

Re: yellow envelope
 

With the invaluable help of good friends like you , scissors & gsb its going great! Sending it off to Mr Lombard in the next week or so!!!! WOOHOO
Hows yours?

Re: yellow envelope
 

We are waiting to get some stuff back from one employer to help with the application.

Have you included labels/evidence with every job application.

By evidence, you know, stuff like date stickers etc?

After you left a job, its hard enough to get them to sign it let alone to ask for samples of stuff/documents used in the kitchen.

Re: yellow envelope
 

thanks everyone,the envelope is just waiting for gary to get home from work :D bet its the first thing he ll want to look at.

claire, pleased to hear your tra application is nearly ready....go girl :D i jusy know you ll be fine,let us know how you get on with the phone call :) we wait eagerly.

Gonna have a few drinkies tonight :beer: :beer:

Re: yellow envelope
 

Congratulations Tracey and Gary, it may be very early days for us but seeing messages like yours help you to realise that we will all get there one day even if it looks a million miles away. Hope fully see you again at sandown then?? :beer: :beer: :beer:
