As an aside. I was chatting to Chris who is also from Gatwick. He mentioned the comment about the residency. Did anyone else pick this up.
The question asked was; [B]what happens if we fail any part of the course or probation as far as our residency goes, do we get kicked out?
Linda discussed this with the other two and said.... No, we will honour the contract for two years.
Does this mean that if we arrive we are basically in OZ for good.
Anyone hear differently.

Re: Police Officers who are planning to move out to Australia ?
DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS.
DOGS AND CATS TO – AUSTRALIA.
1) IMPORT PERMIT – From Australia.
2) DEFRA/MAFF EXPORT HEALTH CERTIFICATE.
3) MICROCHIP CERTIFICATE. – Get this done before applying for the Import Permit - see 1)
4) ( DOGS ONLY ): LEPTOSPIROSIS/BRUCELLA TEST (NEGATIVE) CERTIFICATES.
5) ( DOGS ONLY ): VACCINATION CERTIFICATE – (Distemper, Parvovirus, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza.).
6) ( DOGS ONLY ): WRITTEN DECLARATION BY THE OWNER/AGENT – Stating that the dog is not one of the following breeds, or their crosses, DOGO ARGENTINA, FILA BRAZILLIA, TOZA, PIT BULL TERRIER, AMERICAN PIT BULL, IRISH STAFFORDSHIRE BULL TERRIER.
7) WRITTEN DECLARATION BY OWNER/AGENT – Stating that the dog/cat was not imported into Great Britain during the past six months, prior to being exported/imported into Australia, and that the dog/cat has never been to Africa.
8) ( DOGS ONLY ): ERHLICHIOSIS CERTIFICATE.
9) ( CATS ONLY ): VACCINATION CERTIFICATE – ( Feline Enteritis, Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus.).
ALL CERTIFICATES ‘MUST’ BE ORIGINALS.
NOTES:
A) All the blood tests for Australia (Including the Lepto) now have to be done ‘within 30 days’. If two Lepto tests are being done – both need to be done within the 30 days. ( 14 days apart ).
B) Ask your veterinarian to contact DEFRA/MAFF SERVICES, for a specimen copy of the ‘Export Health Certificate’ – well in advance of the export. In the normal way the DEFRA/MAFF EXPORT HEALTH CERTIFICATE would arrive at your veterinarian within about 10 days prior to the export date. For those veterinarians who are not familiar with the export requirements for ‘Australia’ this would not be enough notice since there are certain ‘Tests’ and ‘Treatments’ which should have been carried out prior to your veterinarian receiving this ‘export certificate’ – So advanced warning is recommended !
REMEMBER - NO TRANQUILLIZERS FOR THE FLIGHT.
hOPE THIS HELPS RATHER THAN CONFUSE THE ISSUE - IT'LL BE A HANDY DOC TO CUT AND PASTE AND CHECKLIST AGAINST ONCE YOU GET STARTED INTO THE PROCESS.
Just had a quote for 2 x medium sized dogs for travelling - £2530 for both (not each!). Then you just have the about to pay - import permit, vaccinations etc., vets and the quarantine bill on the other side.

Re: Police Officers who are planning to move out to Australia ?
Finally - now that makes some sense. Got the moggies chipped but having a mare trying to sort through all the other requirements. Bloody confusing. Didn't find this site until after the d-day, wish I'd found it before so I could have talked to some of you. Nice to know there are others out there with no fingernails or nerves left intact.

Re: Police Officers who are planning to move out to Australia?-Part 2
To change the subject a wee bit, Im in need of a boost. House went on the market 2 weeks ago and all we've had is one mad woman who used to live in her current house in a former life...?!? (Not alot to say to that one really.) Hubby flies out on 13th or 14th and there is no prospect of us even being under offer by then. And to cap it all, my meds have been referred because my BMI is over what it should be. Obviously a man who laid that criteria down, he should try having 3 kids!!
We have spent the last three days with a skip outside the door going chucking out loads. Its quite cathartic in one sense but sad in another. A lot of memories are now on thier way to the dump.
One light at the end of the tunnel is that as you cant take the booze with you, Ive got 3 bottles of Baileys, 2 bottle of Pimms and at least 2.5 of Vodka & Gin plus a few single malts of Sir's. Looks like its party time!!!

Re: Police Officers who are planning to move out to Australia?-Part 2
Sorry if this is in the wrong thread guys..
Am another person in the pool...but definately optimistic..although haven't put house on the market.
Anyway did anyone else in the pool get very excited by the title of the mail sent out over the weekend....
Secondly in the email they mention 'confirmation' of other courses. I read that there are the courses but are waiting to release them.(nothing new just an observation)
Thirdly, on the info day Linda mentioned 200 spaces plus an extra 10 spaces for officers on secondment overseas........If 60 pathfinders have gone out with 150 in the pool....is it co-incidence that that equals 210 as well...(straws and clutching maybe).
forthly....extending the medical to the end of the year to ensure that those awaiting Septembers entry do not have to get another medical???.
Fifthly, I heard from one of those in the know that the press hate the commisioner...and apparently its reciprocated...so they are hell bent on causing as much grief for him.....
Anyway thought I'd contribute to the forum.
All the best to those going out (wished I'd taken the test on week one when offered!!!)
and for those still waiting....Ebay is a fantastic way of gettin rid of crap !!!
Love & stuff

Anyone else heard this or a similar rumour ?
