Re: April 2008 Applicants
The Mystery of my missing white elephant from the garden is resolved. He set off to Australia to hunt out DIAC & give them some gentle persuasion to look at our visa application.
He must have chained himeslef to the railings & made a nuisense of himeself as this morning our agent rang to give us the wonderful news.................
WE HAVE A VISA!!!!!!!!!! Woooo HOOOOOOO
Now can't stop shaking / crying & can't concentrate. Off to the POst office now to send the passports off. Hope I can drive ok..........
Good luck to all those still waiting. Your turn will come.
For those interested in analysing everything to within an inch of its progress, much like myself. We applied 24 April (paper), ack 29 April, meds 2 Sep, PCs 14 Sep No CO straight to visa grant 21 Nov.

Re: April 2008 Applicants
Thanks for the replies everyone.
It is good to know that we are not the only ones still waiting.
We have just checked our online application status and our application was last reviewed on 11th Nov (21 days after meds received) with everything OK'd except my meds which I am guessing have been referred because of an ongoing condition (nothing serious just something I'm receiving medication for).
So the wait goes on.....
Hopefully (fingers crossed) not long now.
