Hi there, we are also looking to go to Mandurah.

I'm emigrating with my husband (25) and our 1 year old daughter. My mam (47) and stepdad (44) are also applying. My husband and stepdad and both painter/decorators.

We sent our visa app in Nov and are still waiting for a CO. Hopefully wont be too much longer now.
