If 'bonnie scotland' was any good at maths, he'd see he had 1000 bucks a month left............so all good.

Converting CPV 173 to 143

Does anyone know how long it takes to convert a contributory parent 173 temp visa to a 143 permanent visa ?

And I'd appreciate the name of a good immigration consultant to help.

Cheers.

Re: Where to watch England games in Brisbane?

The Pig and Whistle on Eagle Street is the best bet, it'll be packed to the rafters with English fans. A word of warning though, doors close at 3am due to licensing laws, be there well before !!!
