I brought mine, 15.5 tog fogarty duck down duvet. Still going strong 11 years down the line. My packers were very inventive when it came to the labelling and the inventory.

I missed that bit in the OP, my apologies to the OP.

As far as I am aware children born to temp visa holders are not automatically Australian citizens. I stand to be corrected but this is as I believe it.

Lot's of 'I' in there. What do the rest of your family think?

Indeed, our opinion is always going to be based on our own reality. The reality of those who live in rural middle class England is going to be very different to those that live in working class suburbia.

Also regarding the fees you can add another couple of thousand over the year for incidentals, particularly once they get to high school age. Subject fees, book hire, school camps etc etc.

Agree with Sammy. Long waiting lists and high fees.

They do indeed. It's an excellent way of gaining entry to University, some really useful skills are taught. My eldest did it in semester 1 and is now studying for for her BA in semester 2.

Same thing has happened to my cousin recently. I just reported the page and so did many of his other friends and it was taken down within minutes. I make my profile picture viewable by friends only. You can't do anything about your cover photo as it's always public so I try and make that something quite innocuous that doesn't actually identify me, usually a landscape.

Good luck with whatever course of action you choose, enjoy your holiday.

People who are trying to be rude usually start their sentences like that. bit like 'no offence but' Clearly you're in the habit of booking a holiday without thinking about the legal requirements of travel from the country in which you now live. Australia requires it's citizens to depart and arrive on an Australian passport. Just because your child is only 10 months old doesn't change this legal requirement. If you know you need this document I suggest you apply for it and then apply for an express delivery passport. Either that or don't go to bloody Bali!!!

6 weeks is plenty of time to apply for an Australian passport. Not sure why you have to apply for a citizenship certificate if he was born here and has a birth certificate and you guys were PR at the time of his birth. You would be opening yourself up to a whole heap of trouble trying to travel on his UK passport.

Sometimes financially it's not worth working when the cost of childcare is that high.

Yes they can still get the WACE certificate. A student has to complete so many units across the 2 years in order to qualify for WACE. I can't remember how many units. Not sure if they would qualify for UK Uni as I would imagine without ATAR it wouldn't be equivalent to A levels. You are aware that once you have lived overseas you will have to pay international rates at UK Uni, I seem to recall you have to have 3 years UK residence to qualify for domestic fees.

As far as I am aware it doesn't affect his UK licence at all. It only affects him if he gets a WA licence and those points then apply.

I took a look at the requirements and I noticed this note Please note: A document listed in category B or Ccontaining your current residential address is an acceptabledocument for category D, as long as that document hasnot already been used to satisfy category B or C. If you can provide something from category B or C that has your address on you will be fine as long as you haven't already used that as part of your B or C requirements. Personally I wouldn't rush it. You have 3 months to sort it out.

to infer and to imply are pretty similar in my view. It is usually the subject of these verbs that takes it the wrong way rather than the person making the original statement. In my opinion.

Yeah we need it to deal with how shite it is!!!

When were you last in Perth?

When they started walking to and from school on their own, about 11 years old. They had a hand me down phone. 8 is far too young IMO.

Indeed it is. I couldn't sleep at night if it was me and I would be more than happy to rat someone out if I knew of anyone doing the same.

I appreciate that but 457 workers are recruited on the basis that there is a shortage here so if that person then leaves temporarily it's harder for them to recruit a temp replacement.

If I was an employer who had paid a shed load of cash in visa fees to recruit an overseas worker I would be mightily pissed off if they then wanted to take a massive period of time off.

I would imagine you would have no chance. They will just find someone else to do the job.

Citizen.
