Re: A bit of URGENT help needed!
I truely feel for Pauline. Both of my inlaws died at a time when there was no way that we could get back. I was lucky enough to be in Scotland when my father died but had the 'flu and couldn't fly when my mother died. I hope this is a lesson for all migrants - immediately you get citizenship apply for your passport, you never know when you will need it. I sincerely hope that Pauline has no hassels, things are traumatic enough just now.

In an ideal world we'd all have the money to get the passports immediately and also never have the dreaded call. But even in my world that doesn't happen so yes, it would help the info being in the useful tips bit :D

Re: A bit of URGENT help needed!
Sorry to hear this Soapy. It really does bring home how far away you are from family at times like this.

Re: A bit of URGENT help needed!
So sorry to hear your bad news, Soapy. I hope all goes well for Pauline and her family at this stressful time.
Yup the Tyranny of Distance surely is right. |
Re: A bit of URGENT help needed!
Our thoughts are with Pauline & you.

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 Pauline |

Thats great news Pauline regarding the passport. Our thoughts are with you both, take care.
John & Stella 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. Jo |
