Hey there, not quite got all the dates for you but thought I would get started!!!

We submitted our visa application last night & uploaded most of the documents. Have you guys all gone ahead with your police checks & booking dates for medicals before getting a case officer then? Am glad you mentioned the Form 80 - my husband & I had a slight disagreement about that last night

Thanks

I have booked the Meds for Sept

About the police check did you complete form 80 and send it off with PCC or upload beforehand

Our case officer hasn't asked for form 80 just medicals and police checks. It takes a while to fill it out, I would suggest if you are not asked for it by your caseofficer do not bother filling out form 80. Good luck!

I think for onshore applicants they request for both meds and PCC while waiting for CO

Then again few people have submitted PCC and left Meds until requested

I thought it was required rather than requested. Your right it's a long form. Will sort out PCC while waiting for meds.

Things are waiting moving forward...not long now.

Form 80 is long, but it's just a form and it costs nothing to complete. It took me a couple of hours to fill in; if all it does is put a smile on my case officers face because she knows the effort I went to and she doesn't want it, then it was time well spent.

At this stage of the game I figure fill in everything I can just so I look like I'm prepared, willing and able (always the boy scout). Somehow I always think that if you go out of your way to make someones job a little easier, they tend to look on you a little more favourably even if all that means is the officer processes your application before the next persons because they know everything is there and the other application will require more work. I'm probably wrong, but hey, I live in my own little world sometimes !

Oh, and I may as well add myself to this thread, timeline attached.

All IMHO of course
