Re: Any Single Parents out there?

You'll be fine :-) I came here not knowing the city at all or anyone in it. Eight months on I have a superb network around me and feel completely at home. As someone else has said, the thing to...

Re: Any Single Parents out there?

Hi - I'm a single parent of two boys, 6 and 2 1/2 and I'm already in Perth (6km out from the CBD so very central). My husband (separated) lives over in Melbourne so I am very much on my own out here...

Re: Anyone here in Como/South Perth area?

Similar situation I guess - My mother is Australian (so therefore I am) - my boys are 2 1/2 and 6 so similar ages. I have family here but they don't seem the friendliest bunch so I've just got on...

Re: Wesley College/Private schools

Probably too late with my reply to help as I don't frequent BE as much as I used to but I have a son at Wesley (live in Como) and he's thrived there. I'll agree with the stuck up parents bit - there...

Re: Capital Investment Bond

It may be quicker but I believe at least 4 weeks would be within the 'normal' range. That's really not that long ;)

Re: Capital Investment Bond

Hi Nadine - the money for the bond was sent across on 25th April so I don't expect any movement any time soon as such. Possibly another 4-8 weeks before the visa is granted.

Re: Capital Investment Bond

So, natmcg, maybe you could keep us abreast of the procedure for lodging the bond with NT.


Sure - will do! First step is to get the money out of the term deposit, which OH forgot to do... ...

Re: Capital Investment Bond

Yeah - NT are pretty quick - they told me they turn things around to DIMA/DIAC within 24 hours. We'll see when the time comes.

Looking at Hifx and I think Oxforex too but most likely the former...

Re: Capital Investment Bond

Apparently just 28 days so we're going to have to move pretty swiftly. OH's meds were lodged back in December. I believe the usual time-line from meds being received to the bond being requested is...

Re: Capital Investment Bond

Same issue - going with NT because of WA needing the bank account. Commonwealth have an account that so long as you are 'verified' locally (in the US at the Bank of America - not sure about the UK),...
