Sold the House
 
Hello folks

Just accepted an offer on the house because it was only £2500 short of the asking price. We have our medicals next week so I am really hoping we get our visas by end of July because thats when the buyer wants to move in.

Feeling a bit gittery.

What do you think Clare, have we sold too early or do we have a chance of getting Visas within 2 months of taking medicals. We are all fit and healthy and have no previous medical problems.

Hello 1066, you are absolutely right, however i have always been one to worry. When things go too smoothly I always imagine someone mucking it up. In this case it could be the CHC taking 6 months to issue our visas and we are homeless. Hopefully everything turns out o.k god willing. :rolleyes:

Hi there i am similar timeline to you AOR 20th July - still waiting for med requests. I had visions of putting house on market this month but until meds come i cant get going - just in case...............

I want to be out there so fast and then i dont.

We are only going for research trip this July so dont want to rush things - we may wait till we get visas before putting house on market which at this rate wil probably be September time and then take a leisurely move out there.

I dont want to emigrate with 3 small kids in winter so may even wait till next spring.

Is it 1 year to land from time of med requests or visas?

It all happens so scarily fast after med requests doesn't it; after such a long wait its a hell of an adjustment to make.

Not surprised you're jittery - i am too :eek:

Hi, Bsidebaby

You have 12 months from the day you attend your medical/xray, [whichever comes first] to 'land.'

Thanks 1066 - thought as much - we can always go and land and then come back to sell house if need be.
