Have you guys got quotes from IOM as well? I paid £1085 (i think..) for 2 adults and a baby with Malaysia through IOM.
-
My CO stopped replying to my emails. I think I burnt that bridge well & truly. Not sure what to do now. Will probably just wait until the last moment then panic about flights & tourist visa. Dave
-
mng75 look for iom.int on this forum - they sometimes have good deals.
-
Bad news! Thanks for posting it though. Starting to think I might have to look into delaying my flights.
-
Congrats Anna. Good job on calling AB. What was he like on the phone?
-
Let us know how you get on pestering AB. Fingers crossed you get your visa today Dave
-
Anna - we booked through IOM - apparently its advertised on your visa grant. Its a weird service but it works. We are flying London > Sydney with Malaysia for £1085. 2 Adults & a baby. They also double the baggage allowance. There is more information about IOM on this forum somewhere... Dave

Thanks Shell! No offense taken Shall pester AB on the 10th!
-
You don't understand our special relationship. AB would do anything to get rid of me.
-
CHALLENGE.. ACCEPTED. Loser buys the first round in the wonderful world of Oz?
-
Congrats :-D
-
Could you ask AB about my visa as well? ta
-
Reckon its 29 days until you get your visa. Good luck Wardie :-D
-
Congrats Ciaram!
-
Worth a shot. I quit my job & booked my flights as well - so in a similar spot. Though I left a bit more time. Just hope they grant at 5 months and not 6............... Dave
-
Sorry to hear that Bens0n. So do you expect yours within 6 months still? or are you now looking at 8?
-
All sounds rather organise Mng75! Welcome to the queue.
-
40 odd times since I applied. To be fair at least half of those were remotely necessary. I am trying to resist pestering until the 19th of August when I will give it another shot.
-
Fingers crossed AB will be more than happy to get rid of us from his queue though. :-D
-
Congrats Glastocat & welcome to the queue. Spouse 309/100 seems to be down at 5months again.
-
Thanks for posting that Wardie. Yet to hear back myself from AB. Any reason you were in touch with him? Did you react to this post as well? I wonder if our CO's are PIO members! ;-) Dave
-
Working 'Dave nutjob' theories: 1) Your CO is not granting for a period of time (absent from work for whatever reason) 2) the Spouse Visa - 100 has been increased to 6-8 months but not the 309 3) People who applied after March 19th only are affected by change in time More theories whizzing around! Apologies for being selfish Dave
-
I went through the same thought process. Resulted in me pestering CO - shall update upon reply
-
Email fired away to my poor old CO. (AB) He will probably grant me early just to get me out of his hair
-
This is rather earth shattering for me. I quit my job this week, the house is on the rental market next week and my flights are in 7 weeks. To cry or to email my CO.. Hmm
