Can you believe it!

Its been 12 weeks since the DIMIA acknowledged our visa application, 13 weeks since we sent in our application and i am sure that there are many in the same situation but we cant believe we are sooooooooo close now

I know also there are quite a few others around the same timeline so your thoughts, views and support would be greatly appreciated

................and a med request would not go a miss either

I hope you are nearly there. Its only been 8 weeks since our acknowledgment so I know we have a little way to go yet.
We have our medicals on the 12th July, definately won't have the request from DIMIA.
I am panicking so much about these damned medicals, husband has a benign kidney condition and we have a consultant nephrologist letter confirming this and I am overweight BMI of 30. I have been desparately trying to lose weight, but it comes off far slower than it goes on !!!!!
well we will see, no use in worrying about it, what will be will be eh !!

Hi rob and family, hang in there mate.

I was modl hairdresser and just looked at my timeline and it was 4 months and 22 days, as we had to give more evidence about my shop, which req someone to come in and have a snoop too!

No news is good news as they say. Better not to know than have a NO!

Hope everthing goes well, Where are you heading anyway?

We are 18 weeks on Thursday. But at least we have had some communication from DIMIA. Made me laugh as our agent phoned on Friday to tell us everything we already knew as we had got the email from our CO the day before. Let's hope it's a bumper Friday full of 'GOT IT's'.

Were at the 12 week mark and now like all of you stuck in limbo...to be honest the rush of getting all the paper work ready,the meds and pcc done was all a great rush/buzz,but now the wait.... I suppose if we get the visa the rush will start again.
Also the more you wait the more I think we wont get the visa,dont know why just things run through your mind...you end up asking yourself questions,but just dont know the answers....have said all of that B$&&*£ks...its out of my hands..

just sharing a thought?
