Congratulations on getting your visa. What a great feeling it is. But wait til you get your passport back with the visas actually inside, it feels even better because then it feels real.

Best regards
Theresa

we are actually already here, we flew over to new zealand ,contacted our CO and visa was granted the following day, went to the australian consulate, waited in a queue for about an hour and had the labels in our passports there and then, flew back 4 days later (yesterday)

thankful its all over, very stressful way to do it, wouldnt recommend to do it that way, but its just they way it worked out for us through different circumstances and family already being here.

no, all you do is give them your visa grant letter which you need to print off, give it to however is at the counter, they look your details up on the screen and within 5 mins, your visa label is in your passport.. but as i said, its not a way i would recommend, way too stressful, and the whole immgration thing is stressful enough !! glad its all over now and we can start with our new life
