I thought I was not sleeping cause I am on the Champix drug for stopping smoking, but it might be waiting for this bloody visa also. How mad am I stopping smoking and applying for a visa at the same time, lol. 24 days a non smoker now YEEHAA!
My Oh is also not sleeping to well cause everytime I wake up I make sure he wakes up too hehehe

Good Morning!!
Lets start this day with some positive thinking (I've been way to negative over the last couple of days so it is time to turn this ship around) YES a few of us don't have case officers, YES most of us are waiting in the dark, YES most of us haven't heard anything for a very long time from anybody in OZ BUT
ALL WILL BE GOOD.... GOOD THINGS TAKE THEIR TIME AND IT WILL MAKE US APPRECIATE IT MORE WHEN WE GET IT!!!

We all had our medicals on Tuesday, which was a painless experience. We went to London for the meds so told the children (9, 7 and 4) we would take them to the Doctor Who Exhibition at Earl's Court afterwards if they were good at their meds. Their whole day was focused on going to the Exhibition (which was excellent) so made it all very stress free.![Sunglasses](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sunglasses.gif)

Had a call from the Doctors yesterday to say everything was fine with the meds and they will be couriered today. Then that is it everything sent, we will now have to try to sit patiently while meds are assessed and await our visa.

I know that you mean - I've started my "let's eat healthy diet" this week... It is funny how I think that changing countries is going to make my healthy and fit...

Me 137 STNI too - NSW![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
I can't figure out - do you think the 137 visas are taking longer to get CO than 136 and 138??
And why does the processing times on the website say they are only up to end of may when they are processing August Applicants?
It's bazarre!

ok you really need to take a step back coz whether you get the visa or not you really don't want to waste today worrying about. get out of the house or call someone. But if yourre at work thats a whole other kettle of fish - waste all the work time you can !!!!
By the way in Sydney, weather's cold and there's nothing on TV
