Wow, had my 119 RSMS visa granted today! :biggrin: ...is it normal to feel excited and very scared at the same time?

 

For those currently applying for 119 visas (and other employer sponsored visas, here is my timeline so you can try and compare where you are.

Application acknowledged - March 19th 2009

Case officer appointed - 1st April 2009

Medicals done - 6th April 2009

Medicals arrived in Sydney - 20th April 2009

Meds acknowledged as received - 28th April 2009

Wife's medicals finalised - 12th May 2009

My medicals finalised - 21st May 2009 - still trying to figure out why the difference in finalisation time...
