Some big changes are happening at work - and it is turning out good (also helps that I've been told I can go part-time as soon as PR comes)
I'm REALLY sad, as have set my hotmail account to send text to mobile as and when DIMIA email me !!

I have had a reply from the dimia saying that due to the huge amount of loose mail they have and the amount of applications they have it is impossible to find out if my medicals got there.
If anything gets posted to the dimia then you should contact your postal source to track it. (I could not do this as it was sent by the docs, hence reason for sending email in the first place).
If anything gets posted to the dimia then it should either have ref number on or name, address and date of birth on the envelope.
So basically no wiser now than I was a week ago.
So now we go back to the waiting in that horrid place called limbo again!!
Hope you lot have more luck than me.

My meds did have the file No on them but we sent them unrequested, but now they go to sydney I cant help but worry because they were not expected.
When we sent them we thought it was the right thing to do for us with having the file number but now I am not so sure. Part of me wished we had waited until they were asked for.
Oh well no point whinging about it now, whats done is done as my hubby keeps reminding me bless him.
Good luck to you marie,

and phone me back today - the e-mail also asked where the Dr sent them so I have a feeling that Dr sent meds to Sydney and Adelaide have not bothered to check there as e-mail was from Adelaide SPC. Maybe if Dr can shed some light then I can e-mail back and they can look again for them. If they have not been delivered then I feel this is the Dr's responsibility and the Dr should repeat the meds/ x-rays at no cost to me. totally worried sick as the total cost of them for me and my hubbie was 408 pounds (inc x-rays 2)
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you Libby if you do the same for me!!!!

My email said they would not even check so I have no clue about mine.
Yes I do agree, if they have not received them then the doctors have to do repeat for free.
How frustrating for you. Hopefully its just a mix up and they are sat on someones desk in Sydney waiting for someone to check them.
Thinking about you,
Libby

I know! where are all these medicals going then?! Its not like they didn't have case file numbers on them to allow them to be matched up!
I am no further forward as the Dr's receptionist did not return my message I left and I could not get a hold of her by persisting calling - will be on to them again tomorrow - so back in limbo land again, my e-mail *seemed* like the lady might look for them if I could tell her where the Dr posted them too - she was based in ASPC and ? the meds might of gone to Sydney? All guesswork at the minute but hears hoping this can be rectified.
A sleepless night tonight me thinks

I phoned DIMIA today - and was told that MODL applications are taking 4 to 6 months (including nurses), and non-MODL 12 months plus.
When I asked when it would be likely I would get a CO, she said about two to three months from application.
But haven't allocations started to come through?
