Thanks Carly. We a little nervous about starting from scratch and not knowing anyone but I'm sure we'll get there eventually. :D

Re: PR APPROVED!!!

How big is the smile on your face going to be when you arrive though eh?! I feel sorry for the immigration personnel at Auckland. When I fly in I'm going to be a giggling idiot that wants to hug everyone!! They'll probably send me back to the UK to calm down!

I am so so happy for you though. Enjoy it!! xxx

I can't wait to actually have the visa's in our hands!! It's all so real now!

When do you fly?

New life, here we come :thumbsup:

Passports arrived today with VISA'S!! :thumbsup:

Perhaps someone can explain to me, what does it mean 'visa valid for travel for 24months from first arrival'? I gather that means we can come and go as we please holiday wise. What happens after that then? :confused:

yep you can come and go for 24 months. After that you apply for an indefinite right of return visa (IRRV): then you can come and go for ever.. :thumbsup:
