Re: January 2009 Applicants
I know the feeling. Things have changed for us so much as well. My dad died in June 2009 & we also now have a 2yr old grandson!! So it would mean leaving him & my mum who is not in the best of health. We've also had to take our eldest off the visa as he is now not dependant on us & our 17yr old is refusing to come & i certainly don't want to force him. So we would now be leaving a lot behind. My mum is adamant that we should go & my 11yr old appears to be looking forward to going but we've decided to make the decision once we've definitely got the visa. Big decisions!! Hopefully everything will work out for the best

Not bad thanks. Still waiting, but I've been very impressed at the rate DIAC's been going at of late. I'm feeling quite optimistic.

Re: January 2009 Applicants
Thanks (& congratulations on your visa & new baby! ). Yeah, I'm a P5 applicant, so it's taking a little longer.

Hi All - still waiting for my visa to be processed...
I had a look on the Aussie Immigration site and came across this Allocation page - http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/gener...tion-times.htm
Correct me if I'm wrong here but does this mean that they are currently processing 175 Skilled Independent applications that are Category 5, lodged in April 2008?
That means that people like me and other folks in this thread are about 1 year away from being processed??

Re: January 2009 Applicants
It's the 'not knowing thing' that kills me. I just don't get how they can not give at least a rough timeline so we can plan our lives a bit...
