AUGUST 2007 Applicants

Hello My Lovelies,
Well I emailed our CO to get an update on our application as far as everything else is concerned (not the medical outstanding) and this was his response today.
At this stage we are only waiting on the outcome of medical
examinations
for Jordan. We cannot provide timeframes on visa processing as each
application may be different. If all criteria is deemed met by the HOC
then
a grant would not be expected until after June 2008. You will receive
further correspondence from our department after Jordan's medical
results
are known and we are advised of the outcome.
So I think this answers the rumour that they have indeed met their quota!!
On the bright side 1st of July is only 10 days away. Whats another 10 days on the 10 months+ we have been waiting.![Sunglasses](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sunglasses.gif)
Speak Soon!
Loads of Love Claire x![Love](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wub.gif)
P.S. Sorry if you think this is a negative post, but I am only being realistic and I look at it if we have to appeal it could take another year for us and another set of meds and pcc's.

Good Morning!
Now I can't remember who said it, but there was something mentioned about a good house sale ritual - is there any ritual we can do to get our visa - YES I know it sounds nuts but at this stage I am willing to try what's on offer!!!!!!

Joanne - be good to yourself this evening - you deserve it !!
Am going on a sponsored visa and am having problems with my sponsor (one of my sisters) and really wish I had chosen my other sister to be my sponsor - you know what they say about "you can choose your friends ......" - well she's saying that she'll give me the documentation that the case officer has requested .. but ...
I've emailed my agent to see if it would be too late/complicated to change to my other sister.
Have just spoken to sis no. 2 and am probably just going to have to do what it takes to get the doc's from sis no. 1 - don't want to put the rest of my life at risk over her - and I don't have to see her too often (she'll be living very near me) when I get there !!!
Sorry - I know that this sounds so petty - when you have all the worries about Jordan Claire - and I'm sure that some of the rest of you have complications that I'm not aware of - but you know how it is when you get caught up in the minutae of your own life !!!!!!!
Thank you for asking - it's actually been good to have to type this and realise that there is SOOOOOO much other stuff I should be worrying about !

Mottie here is the magic spell
copy of daughters email:-
"Very strange indeed, got the phone call about the viewing that afternoon and the viewing the next day!!!
You need to get a red envelope ( I bought a cheap card with a red envelope), put inside something metal from your house (screw, bolt etc) then something wooden (piece of skirting board etc ) from the house and then some earth from the garden.
Then go to the nearest river, throw it in and wish for a house sale!!!!"
Hope it works![Sunglasses](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sunglasses.gif)

Hi Guys !!
Have perked up a bit from this morning - can feel a storm brewing in the family tho !!
It's a bit like going to an AA meeting - Hi ! I'm Lisa and I'm an alcoholic (which probably isn't actually far from the truth at this stage - have "managed" to have two alcohol free nights this week and think I'm doing great !!!).
