Re: Couple of quick bank/currency exchange questions...

That sounds great. Can you tell me more about this: which bank, and what specifically you asked the bank for in terms of the account type, etc?

Re: Any tips for securing a home rental?

Thanks Ginny!

Question 2: where do you get the application from? Assume you go to the agents before the day of the viewing for the form, right?

Hey!

Re: 475ers - anyone got your visa?

You think it's agonising: try having submitted the eVisa app 12 months ago and still not having the matter resolved!

Re: 475ers - anyone got your visa?

We're still waiting for some movement on our 475 app.

Not a huge surprise to see that zero 475 visas have been pledged so far this year. There's def something funny going on there. Not that I'm at all biased, or that 'conspiracy' is my middle name.
