Re: Contributory Parent Visa - Part 5 - Visa/Immigration queries only please!!

Re: Contributory Parent Visa - Still Sparkling!!! - Part 4

Hi Peewit. Sounds a tad more civilized than over here where you have to make an appointment. But they do promise to give you back your existing license! We have to travel to Werribee as our...
