Hello we are still here to, but fed up waiting for news, i sent of the ozzie police check last tuesday and our case officer should have been back in yesterday but no news yet, i think i can only wait until the afternoon and then i will have to ring her....

I'm still here too. Been really enjoying hearing how everyone's been doing with their applications. Can't wait till we can put ours in (but got to wait a few more months yet).

Hope you'll all still be around to answer all the questions I'm bound to have when I'm finally ready to submit it all!

Emma - when are you doing yours??? Maybe we can be visa buddies!!

I got meds at cambridge tomorrow
any idea how long before london get the results ?

I think it took ours a week, but I think that was because we did our x-rays ad meds seperatly

Well we'll get it all ready over the summer and I imagine send it off in October maybe? Our trouble is we're getting married next June, and want to move to Brissie after that (maybe in August), so can't apply too soon because of the 12 months from medicals/police check rule.... (if you see what I mean?!).

You're applying in the summer aren't you? I'm so nervous already.... (and trying to plan the application plus the wedding at the same time is a bit scary!)

I couldnt wait any longer, phoned our case officer and she says.....

That it will be granted !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and you will recieve a email in the next day or so requesting your passports..

Jumping around like a looney..

I remember that feeling a couple of weeks ago, now I look at all the organising we have to do, to get to Oz...and I'm still jumping around like loon happy as larry

Well done Parkes

has anyone heard of a spouse visa being rejected. Aussie oh is worried we wont get them, so does anyone know of any valid reason an application can be knocked back

CONGRATS!!!!

Me worry??? Nahhhh No worries mate!

I had to thin down my evidence by loads!! I still think what we sent in was too much but I'mglad we did as they didn't request further info!

I'm pretty sure I'll still be around, I'm some what of an addict now

I think ours took about a week to 2 weeks as we had an e-mail from the place telling us that blood tests were all negative and sending it to Aus house, I'm pretty sure it wasn't any longer than two weeks.

umm I've not heard of a spouse visa being rejected. I mean I guess if someones been to prison or if they've got something wrong with them medical wise then it could be rejected, oh and of course if the relationship is fake lol I mean if clean police record and all meds fine, you shouldn't have a problem. My OH record wasn't exactly clean (although spent - still showed) I was worried about that but everything is fine as we got our visa in a week!

Well after stressing out for the last 2 weeks waiting to do my meds today was the day.
