Hi everyone, My friend is an OT here in the UK with one years experience. We are both confused over the process to get registered in Aus. Would someone be able to simply the process for me please? Kind regards Danny
-
Ahh ok, well that makes sense thanks :wink: So bascially if UK increase and Aus decrease then happy days. What if the US raise it? Will that have an impact on GBP/AUD too?
-
Sorry to sound like a muppet, but what does that mean please? I am still learning all about these things. Cheers

I am not neccessarily looking to transfer it right this second. I just want to be able to have that option when we feel it is the right time because of the rates. I would hate it if we waited for 2017 and it went down below $2 again. I just wanted to make sure I was armed with all the information possible.

To be fair he was not pushing it at all. He said not to send all of it in case things improve. Probably the least pushy person I have ever spoken to

On doing the medical before or after...it is upto you. There is no rule of thumb. I did mine after the EOI but it would be upto you. This is also the same for the police check. You just have to remember that you only have 12 months to enter the country from your point of getting medical or police check done whichever is up first. Eg. I did medical in Oct 2014, visa Granted Nov 2014. Had to set foot by Oct 2014. Did so in July this year just to get to activated.

as an update. Spoke to a guy from commenwealth bank and he said I could transfer money now even if I wasn't moving until 2017. We can't access the money unless we were in Aussie, however. As long as I make a payment every few months it would be fine. Even suggested a few third party exchangers. So at least that is a worry off my mind. Although I was not sure at first because there own website said upto three months of moving but he was happy with Christmas 2017.

This is what I am not sure about, yes, I remember when I was a kid it was 2.5 - 1. I keep reading that it is going to get even better and I thinking if it went to 2.25-2.3 then that would be a good time. I feel like a gambler at the casino.

To both supercow and benji1980, would that still apply for me if I was not moving until 2017 if for arguments sake I put it in now?
-
Ok brilliant thanks for the help guys. I am still as much research as I can. Some banks would take our money if we were moving say in twelve months. However, we will be longer than 12 months. I see what you mean by the aussie rate, it is all over the place at the moment. It looks like it is going more in our favour at present.

Hi everyone, I am hoping to move to australia in 2017. We have the 189 visa and it is all activated. The question I have is what to do with my money now. I cannot open a bank account over there as I do not have an address over there yet. So I am wondering what to do. I am considering this could be the best time to exchange money but I am not sure where and how. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers guys Danny

Yeh they did. As soon as I got my report from counsellor they had it done within the week. However, it then took another week for the CO to grant the visa. It was a tad frustrating but we got it in the end
-
We did everything by ourself. If you read stuff online or ask people on here you can do it without an agent. I would have done it all before the case officer was allocated but we needed a report from my counsellor. I could have had it all 2 weeks ago. This forum is invaluable, cheers for all the help guys.

Monday blues......nahh....Monday visas more like :wink: its arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sydney 2016 here we come !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just noticed this today by the medical bit..... Meeting the health requirement Health has been finalised for this person for this visa subclass based on the information provided to the department. If this person needs to do anything further to meet the health requirement, they will be contacted by the department. There is no need to contact the department at this time concerning this matter. does that mean medicals are now uploaded. That was the only thing we were waiting for/CO wanted. cheers guys
