Hi - just had a call from the agent....

We've got our visa's!

After a very very long time getting oh's paperwork approved by the TRA (we are on a MODL 175 visa as he's a carpenter joiner) we applied for the visa on 8th October, case officer allocated 4 weeks ago and values statement sent.

Sunshine Coast here we come....hang in there everyone!
