[quote=The Nichols;130755]Having only recently discovered PIO we were unaware of the link between our PCC and Medical checks and the date by which we have to get our Visa validated (12 months from the earliest date).

Thinking we were being pro-active we received our police checks back in January, whilst waiting for our skills assessment. We were allocated a Case Officer in early May, having submitted our application at the end of February. We sent in our PCC checks immediately which have been acknowledged. Our medicals were deliverd on 18th June and we are now awaiting the finalisation of our medicals.

Presumably when we get our letter through (hopefully soon) we will have until next January to get to Australia, which whilst we would love to may be a bit tight if our house sale is slow.

Hi The Nichol Family.

I was given a provisional date of entry for the 28th June. This was because our police checks ran out then. We did not except this due to our son was sitting his final year of medical school.

We had our police checks redone and submitted them on 21st of June. We are now just waitng for another date.

Hope this helps
