Re: Current Processing Times
The date for the subclass 880 is for 26 July 2007 which means my turn 
we'll see how long will it take to be assigned a CO and receive the visa.

Re: Current Processing Times
We are in the same boat - looking to go somewhere between Secret HArbour and Mandurah - Receipted in ASPC on 27th Aug - Still waiting for the Full Acknowledgement - We have decided to go ahead with the meds and PCC - Just been told the police checks went up 2 days ago from £10 to £35 - typical!!! Looking at going across as soon as - but realistically looking at Sept Oct now at earliest. Good news with the house prices as they seemed to have bounced back a bit in the last month.

Re: Current Processing Times
You can still apply for the old £10 pcc's. There is nothing yet to say that they will accept the news ones. Read that on another post by a senior member so if I were you i'd try & get the cheap £10 one. The £35 one is supposed to be quicker to receive back tho. Just another money making scheme!
