Sorry to confuse anyone

I thought someone had just nicked your (very cool) avitar!

Nooo I'd have been :curse: if they had!!

how are you doing Kristy? Still counting down the days!

I'm good thanks! Yep still counting the days. Still questioning myself every now and then if we're doing the right thing. I mean I reallllly want to move back to Aus, but I worry about work and money!!!! I'm sure we'll be ok though, you know me - worry worry worry!!

How are you doing? When will you be leaving the UK?

still dont know - as OH has been verbally offered a job but still no written conf and no idea of salary yet - that is what worries us too, much lower salaries and same price of houses!

Yeah I've just been looking at houses for renting and buying, I mean we'll be staying with my parents until we're settled, but I really don't want to rent again so might stay with them and see about buying a house when we're sorted financially.

Things have sure gone up since I lived there!

heh - you confused me there!

We're just trying to sell the house at the moment, if it doesn't go we might just have to fly out to get the visa stamped and come back till it does...

which apllication number do i download for spouse visa??
Is it 47SP? if so bloody hell how many pages is this!?!?!? got something like 30 pages

yes I'm afraid it is 47sp, and its one of many long forms you'll be filling out, so may as well get used to it!!
Every time I got asked for further info by my CO, another long form was attached to fill in
I even got yet another form to fill out with my letter that told me I'd got the visa, they just can't resist it!
It's likely that not everything on the form will apply to you, so you might not have to fill out every page
Good luck with it!

just had a look over it, and if you take away the crap, then theres only about 5 pages to fill in, but all spread out so not to bad anyway.

Yeah it does appear to be loads, but it's not that much really.

Good luck! I think I filled in the paper work over 10 times lol (as made a few mistakes and wanted it to be perfect!!)

being the aussie, do i need a police cheek aswell??
Kind of scared about the spanish one, got caught with illegal substance in the car, wasn't mine and only had the car since a few days, but never heard anything from it. Hopefully don't get done for it.

umm I don't think you do. I didn't have one done anyway.

No-they're already stuck with us Aussies-however dodgy we are they cant stop
us coming back in!
