    WTF??????? Long story guys, but, moved to Brisbane 2006 on a 136 Skilled Migration Permanent Residency Visa - think this is now the 175 visa - anyway, stayed for nearly a year, went back to the UK for 18 months, then moved out here to Perth. Have been here 3yrs. Our visa's were originally issued November 2006. We were planning a 3 week holiday back to the UK to visit family for Christmas, cut a long story short, I've been very ill, so have not been able to go. Husband and son have gone by themselves! My husband has just landed in Dubai to change planes to Gatwick and has rung me saying that our visa's have expired!!!! :err: What's that all about??? He has been told that the visa only lasts 5yrs! He will have to go to the Australian Consulate in London to renew before he can return to Australia!!! I was always under the impression that Permanent Residency meant you could stay 'forever'! I've had a quick look at the visa and it actually states 'holder permitted to remain in Australia indefinitely'. So how come we have to renew?? And does this now mean that I am living here illegally??? Because technically my visa should have been renewed in November 2011. Can anyone help with this, as I am really confused? :confused: I've searched the internet and don't seem to be able to find anything!!! :mad: Helpppppppppppp Lynn

It's been sunny today and we have been out all day to the park and in the garden it's a really treat. Girls went straight to bed tonight no fuss LOL hope you have a good weekend take care</p>

    <p>OMG - you must be here now!!!! Bet that nervous feeling has disappeared, and it's just a feeling of relief that you are actually here!!! You'll have to pop into us for a drink sometime. We are still a little bit "billy no mates" at the moment!! Did you finally settle for Mandurah? Have you found a house yet? There's one for rent next to us if you're interested!!! There's always sooo much to do when you first get here isn't there? If you need help with anything just let me know. Good luck and welcome to Mandurah - Lynn xxxx P.S. Are you on facebook? It's a huge life line for me. My name on there is Lynn Birtley Pender. Add me to your friends list xxxxx</p>

    <p>Hi Donna</p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>It was a bit strange - when I looked at when the thread was first put on it was July 2005!!! Hahahaha, I should have read the date first!! Never mind! You will love Mandurah! We've only been here 2 months, but it so beautiful here. Couldn't be happier (unless I perhaps had a few friends!!!). Bit of a "billy no mates" still, but I'm going to a meet up on Saturday, so hopefully meet some more brits then! Hope you visa's go through smoothly. Before you know it you'll be out here sticking a few more shrimps on the barbie!!!!</p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>Keep in touch</p>

    <p>Lynn x</p>
