Wow, I had given up any hope of hearing anything for at least another 5months. We are March applicants, so according to this then we should have ours next month:unsure: I won't hold my breath though.

This does seem to be an unusual grant though, mostly it's October and November applicants. As a March applicant too, I am hoping for December but expecting Jan/Feb.

OHMYGOD Chris that's AWESOME! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

You are one of those people who we all feel a little bit extra happy for, what with the long distance relationship and everything. Fantastic news.

For real - you applied on paper in April this year?

I think it IS the Aussie Romantic Relationship. There was another April 175 that received a VISA Grant early - and he was a single bloke in a romantic relationship with an Aussie Gal.:thumbup:
