Soooooo frustrated !!

Hi

Whilst loads of people all around are receiving their visa's, we are still waiting for ours !

I am genuinely really chuffed for people that are receiving them but really, really want mine (how selfish of me. LOL!!). It seems like we have been waiting for ever. So, I decided to finally send an email to DIAC to chase progress and got the following reply:-

"Thank you for your e-mail about your visa application under Australia’s
General Skilled Migration programme.

Notes on file show that this application has been finalised on 27th
November ,2007 and a letter of decision will be sent to you shortly.

We wish you all the best for the future."

Aaaarhhhh !!!!! I just want to know, is it a yes or a no???????

An increasingly desperate Joanne XX

Hi Joanne

I know how you are feeling, we were like that, we just sent them emails every so often we managed to get hold of a few names and emailed them. Good luck and hang in there

Hi Joanne,
We got our visa today from our agent and he sent a copy through of the letter from our c/o, and guess what the letter was dated the
22nd November 2007
and whats the date today? So we had to wait another 5 whole days till we heard anything!!!! Hang in there it will be your turn very soon...

Awww. Thanks guys and yes, you're right. I am checking our emails constantly, I have even got the world clock up so I can keep checking what time it is in Adelaide to see if they have started work yet. LOL !!

Yep me too, I am checking first thing in the morning and then right up to when I go to bed

and our meds hit LCU on 22 Oct, so we probably have at least a couple of weeks more to wait

I promised myself I would not start stressing, checking e mail etc until at least the first week in Dec

But some people seem to have got thiers a month after thier meds hit LCU

I KNOW every case is different

But it is soooooooooooo hard to stay rational when we are sooo close

I pestered my poor agent with a stupid question yesterday just so I could kow that she had not forgotten all about me, I am so sad

I was having irrational thoughts of my paperwork falling down behind a desk somewhere


help me, the only cure is a visa (or 4)

Hi KazE

I think everyone fels as frazzled as you do whe one gets towards the end of the process. You think about the visa more often than men think about sex! (Said to be every 17 seconds according to a friend of mine!)

Hang in there, chooks. It won't be long now.

Cheers

Gill
