<p>Hi Scott & Emma</p>

<p> </p>

<p>I'm sure you've heard that VIC released their SMP yesturday (1st Nov) and that Plumbers are on it - thank God for that! Although it's being called a "State Eligibility List", our agent has confirmed that this is in fact the SMP that we have all been waiting for. Our agent also advised us that the DIAC are still giving a 15 month times scale from application submitted/SS granted to visa approval. I know you recieved your SS just before us, but the 15 months will be up in March 2011! We're not convinced that this will be met, as after the slow down between July 1st & Nov 1st, we're expecting maybe a 4 month delay. That is providing there are no more interuptions! Anyway, it would be good to hear from you again and catch up, so hopefully we'll speak again soon.</p>
