Text received from agent at 1AM - haven't been able to sleep since, hence this message at 2AM!!!!!
We been given until 30th September to validate, almost 14 months from medicals, which is an extra bonus as we had a feeling we might get a 6 months health undertaking.
Thanks to everyone for their FAB support over the years its taken us to get to this point.
Lots of love
Karen, Ashley & The Boys xxxxx
Perth, here we come

We are still waiting another small hiccup that we didn't account for.
Do you mind me asking when did you do your police checks i'm slightly worried as ours are dated before meds and its a year in May for them and still have no grant.....the foolishness of sometimes front loading
Sorry for hijacking thread.
Fantastic news hope Australia is all you dream of and more.
and all the best
