Re: The 'PERTHIES' Thread......As requested!
Hi Nige and Olly
We got our CO allocated today!!! We sent our visa application in Dec and there was months of preaparation before that.we probably first decided on going and got our first look at the app form in April 06 and then had to be validated by our respective professions n Oz for skills assessment ,including the nursing council losing all my documents once! after that the ball ache is getting all the info required together and signed by a magistrate which takes some time. after dec and the visa went it it was quiet for a while ... and now we're at the stage of gettting medicals and putting house on market. cant believe how time is flying dont know know if that is similar to most people but that how its been for me. my advice would be to try not to put times on things too much to avoid unnecessary stress, oh and do lots of photocopies of everything cos you may have to duplicate stuff if you have to get validated for skills assessment. You ever been to Perth? Julie:) |
