When we look at the checklist, it says only things outstanding are meds etc. Hope that means all the docs were attached ok as checklist still says all the docs are required. Am I right in guessing that this will change once we get CO and they look at them? Have been looking at this site for a while and got some really good info. Thought it was time I came out of the woodwork and made myself known. Good to be part of the clan, hope to get to know all fellow Novemberees along with rest of crew. Take care all.
Don't worry too much about your check list. We applied in early Sept and our agent uploaded everything for us and last time we could access it it was still saying required. I think it will only change when your CO manually changes it. We're heading for Melbourne too with 2 girls 7 and 9 or 8 and 10 by the time we get there. Hoping to go by mid December or if not early January depending on when the visa actually comes through - not too long more to wait I HOPE. The gang on here are great. If you get lonely on the November thread then pop to the Sept one - lots of bods hanging out in there. Trish |

Your checklist will change from 'required' to 'met' or 'requested' when someone looks at your application. Remember to add yourself to the November timeline on the link above. Good luck, Beth x x :wub: |

HI Sue
Welcome to the mad house, we applied on 13/10/07 Not sure about LCU delays now, I know they were taking about 8 weeks but believe they have been clearing the backlog a bit. Good luck with your application, you've got well ahead by frontloading meds and pcs so now you can sit back and relax;) Sam |

Hi Trish, thanks for that and putting my mind at rest. We have frontloaded meds and PCCs, do you think there is still a long wait for these to be assessed at LCU as had heard it was about 3 month? talk about waiting game.
Sue:) At the moment LCU appear to be clearing meds within 6 to 8 weeks. It's been that way for a good while now. Trish |

Re: November 2007 Applicants
Just thought I'd let you guys know that my meds were finalised today.
They arrived at LCU on Oct 2nd and finalised on Nov 10th - that's 6 weeks. Fingers crossed for all those still waiting to hear. Trish |
