Visa back at last!!

Bromwich Family · 24-09-2007, 01:10 PM

Hi all,

Just wanted to let you know that our visa came back from aus last week! We are now waiting for a case officer and have booked meds for 3 weeks time. When you have waited so long you can't actually believe the good news. Still have days thinking if we are doing the right thing, but I am sure it will be!

hi to you, im a little confused you said you have your visa and now waiting for case officer and booked your meds for 3 weeks time. i thought you couldnt book your meds until case officer gives you a ref number. Its just that we have been waiting for case officer for 9 weeks and our agent said that we are best to wait until we have ref number before we book those meds. sorry to be a pain BUT IM GOING OUT MY MIND

Hi there I think our agent gave us the number, but I will double check with my OH, he does all the correspondance with the agent. Will get back to you to help as much as possible x

Hi Nicky,

Once you have had full acknowledgment and with that you get a reference number, which has to go on your medicals .It does state on your acknowledgment letter that you can apply for meds without case officer.
Good luck Jackie xx

Hi again, it was the agent who gave us our reference number in order to book meds, hope this helps you x x

Hi n-jane-30

You can pre-load your medicals and use your passport numbers as the reference but there is a greater chance of them being mislaid (so I've read !). We waited to get the reference number but lots of people pre-load. Think it all depends on how quickly you need things to go through.

Good luck. It's certainly a test of patience, this visa malarky !
