Hi
I am fairly new too and I agree - this site is very addictive.
We have only just made the decision to move to Oz. Luckily I am a citizen as I was born there which also makes my kids citizens too, so its just the hubby we need a visa for.
We are planning on being there by the end of 2008 and are going to the Emigrate show at Sandown in March - Will hopefully be able to get some advice as to when we need to start the ball rolling with the paperwork.
Sorry to waffle - Nice to "talk" to people in same boat as we havent told any family yet....Dont want to cause any heartbreak until we've officially started the process.
Anyway just wanted to say hi too!!!
Cheers

If we get accepted then we would like to move somewhere in / near Brisbane. Ideally by the sea but I guess it would depend on jobs etc.

How about you?

lolly · 11-02-2007, 12:22 PM

Same - Brisbane area somewhere

Like everyone else, want everything. Nice 4 bed new house not far from beaches near shops etc and most importantly near good schools - primary and high school.

Very small world guys, we are in Rushden! We had our applications acknowledged on 1st December and are heading to Melbourne once we get the visa.
