Hi everyone

Thanks for all of your messages.

Just to let you know that a very lovely lady from the passport office came in and opened up the passport office and got an Aussie passport issued for me.
Apparently they have an emergency person who works on call for situations like this.

Today I became an Aussie passport holder::thumbsup:

A lot of stress mind you just getting all the stuff together so guys if you become a citizen try ( and I know that the dough can be a problem) and get an Aussie passport, I think that this is something they should explain when you change your status.

Again thanks for all of your kind thoughts

Must admit we got hubbies recently but left it a while, ours are still pending. There are ways round it though its just a pain at passport control thats all and hassle you dont need. Cousin travelled with nothing one time and they sorted it all out for him on route.

Hope it all goes well, we had the phone call for hubbies dad 1 year after arriving and MIL is 82 now so the call could be anytime. I am sure she will live for many years to come but you never know.

Condolences to Pauline, glad you got the passport issue sorted. I know what it feels like my mum died in a car crash in Africa when we were in the uk. The dreaded phone call .
