When I get it you will hear me scream where you are

Well I'm hoping it won't be too long till I hear that scream. I think it must be worse when you get to your point. Everything done, just waiting. Fingers crossed it will be soon.

We have not even done our meds yet. Agent has asked us to wait until we get FRN. Police checks were done end of last year. I see that an August applicant on BritishExpats has had their Visa granted!

I wonder if at last things are starting to speed up?

Creme Eggs are the best thing. I just love them. I bit off the top, lick all the egg bit out and shove the rest in. I have not had one today yet. At work, have got one in my bag to have after lunch though.

Ha Ha, thats how I would eat one too

I did hear about the Expat August person. hopefully things should start moving soon. My Sister 'Angelcake' sent hers 7 days before me and has just received CO. Mind you she did not get recipeted and I have not had full acknowledgement. There seems no rhyme or reason to this.

I have booked my medicals out of frustration really. Will move back nearer the time if I have still not had case number... but I am feeling positive.........

Hi guys...
we sent our visa for perm. residency in NSW (sydney region) under skilled migrant at the end of Aug 07. Our agent advised us to do so as the cost was going to increase by quite a bit and the rules were going to change. So we sent off all our bits and pieces plus cheque for large amount of our savings off to our agent in oz (agent recommended by a friend) and despite being in regular contact with our agent..NOTHING.. not even been acknowledged. So I am presuming our envelope has not even been opened yet???? I just do not know what to think...some people have said 6-9 months, others longer.. Not sure when we should get our meds or police checks done as I don't want to get my hopes up. Does anyone know if we are likely to hear something soon...only Im begining to think its going to be months and months and months, am its begining to get us all really down..
By the way my OH is a mechanic therefore is on the most wanted list....

Our agent was working yesterday (Saturday) afternoon amd he rang to say that we finally have acknowledgement and file reference number. Will now book medicals tomorrow and sort out police checks. Hopefully you won't be waiting much longer.
