Default Hello - new to forum

Hi all,

Just thought I would say hello as we are just about to start our application to Australia (GSM 175) and I have already found lots of useful info on this forum, but I expect I will have lots of questions en route.

We are planning to move to Perth sometime after next christmas, but no time constraints, so not too pushed on time. Went over at christmas for 5 weeks to confirm its what we want to do (for the third time!) and now we are going for it!

Any info/hints/tips anyone has to share would be greatly appreciated.

And now over to the immigration thread for my first question.

Cheers,

Swins.

We would love to have stayed at xmas, but lots to sort out here before we go. Don't think the visa will be a problem, my skills have been assessed already, 60 points for me. My wife is a physio, already registered in Oz, so 60 points, plus on the MODL list, so extra points, and "allegedly" fast tracking as well... anyone any experience of this?
