  1. I certainly hope you do get another chance, you deserve it. Best wishe Moira
  2. Thanks for that. How does it feel booking one way? I am thinking of booking for end November beginning December. My application was accepted July last year so if 14 months is the wait for a CO, that should make it September when I get one. But it actually feels a little scary booking ONE WAY. Best wishes Moira
  3. Hallo out there I am just filling out Form 80 - I have a while to go yet but as I cant get my medicals done until I get a CO I thought I would fill this form in. I have a query about Question 10 'Do you currently have or ha ve you ever had other passports (If more than one give details at Part J) - I have 3 other passports so I have listed them on J. The next part of the questions is 'If the passport document only shows one name, write that name in the Family box (below) - Two of my passports have my current name. The first passport has my married name. My query is, when they say 'one name' do they mean one name on each passport or what I think it means is the same name of each of the 3 passports? Thanks for any help Pete and Marg - how is the packing going? Moira
  4. I have just had this email from WA Parents "Medicals and police clearances must be provided only at the request of the Case Officer, who at the same time will instruct you on where to undergo the medical exams as well as where to apply for your police certificate. The Case Officer will assess, when it is the right time to request those documents." So I will have to wait - hope its not too long. Best wishes Moira
  5. Hallo out there I have just telephoned the panel doctor to make an appointment for my medical. They want my hap id no.? She said it was in my letter of confirmation but it is not. Anyone any idea what this is. Thanks Moira
  6. Hi there Just a quick question. I am filling out the form for the medical. One questions 'Intended occupation/activity in Australia' I am not sure whether I will be working or what at. Anyone else been in the same situation.? What did you answer? Thank you Moira
  7. Thanks Val. My application was acknowledged July 11 so I am hoping it will all be done by November. Moira
  8. Hi Everyone. I have a question about flights. If the allocation time for a CO is still 14mths, I should get a CO in September. I would like to book my flight ONE WAY before then. My son thinks I may not be able to book one way until I actually have the visa, is he right? Thanks again for this wonderful sharing of information and support Best wishes Moira
  9. Thanks to everyone for your supportive emails. I tell myself these things but it is always reassuring to hear from others. I went to a talk by and author and met someone else intersted in books and crafts, and I have to say that there are a lot of groups to join and I will do voluntary work Best wishes to you all Moira
  10. Hi everyone and Happy New Year A bit late but like some others I dont seem to be in the loop for notification so am just catching up. I am in Melbourne on hols for 2mths, one month already gone. Lovely to see the family so regularly and be part of it. Only wobble I have about moving over is leaving friends. Also I will be 62 when I get over here and although I am qualified as a homeopath and masseuse I am not sure I want the hard work of building up a practice. I will look around for something else but dont feel positive about it. But feel that being with the family wins. How wonderful to meet up with one another after knowing each other through this site. I hope there will people wanting to meet when I get over here, hopefully the end of this year. Good luck and good health to you all Moira
  11. Thanks Linday and Fizz. I did have the two muddled up. All sorted Moira
  12. HI When you say "the Assurer makes an application at Centrelink" I thought their application went in with the visa application or is this a different application? many thanks Moira:wacko:
  13. Thank you for the replies to my post. Ann you are right , when the time is said in weeks it does seem less ( I am a month behind you). I have decided to have my medicals and police checks in March, as I hope to move over towards the end of the year. If its taking 14mths for a CO that means I should get one about September, but I shall watch your space. Gill thank you for saying about putting the money in your daughters account to pay the visa, that sounds very simple, so I will think about that, and to be aware of the daily limit. Like Ann I am on my own, so I find this forum very useful. Best wishes Moira
  14. Hallo out there I havent been online for a while so it was nice to see the messages and hear how people are getting along. I am going to Melbourne in 11days, I will be over there for 2mths. I have never been over for christmas before and I have been invited to the kindergarten christmas party. I have opened a bank account with ANZ and will verify it when I am out there. If I put the visa payment in an australian bank account, is it easy to pay the Immigration dept from that account (I will be in UK)? maybe a cheque of move it over online? I would be interested to know. Although I dont expect a CO until next August. My best wishes to everybody Moira
  15. Thanks for that. Have you got a time in mind that you want to move over or will you wait until the house is sold? Are you getting anyone viewing the house? I have been keeping an eye on the tracker but there doesnt seem to be much movement. I have opened a bank account in Oz - online and will verify it when I go for hols in Dec and I have used Forex (very simple) to put some money in. So - so far so good Best wishes Moira
  16. Hi out there I wanted to check the state of my application online but am I right in thinking you can only check it on line if you applied on line and I think someone said that you can check what the department has set the rate of exchange. Could someone point me in the right direction. I want to be prepared... many thanks Moira
  17. Brilliant, wonder if it works on irons. I noticed that someone has their CO in 9mths, if I am reading it right, thats quick. I only put my application in in July but already wondering how to pack things. I guess the company can do it for you or give advice on how to pack breakable. But everyone gets there eve ntually, good to hear how others are getting on Moira
  18. Hi Marian This information certainly sounds interesting. I would be interested in your Advisor's details although I am not sure I will have enough money left to do anything with. But I guess its worth asking. Could you PM it to me Many thanks Moira
  19. Hi Pam I know how you feel about the journey being emotional. I am off to Oz for 2mths in December (thats if I get there, have booked with Qantas!!!) People say arent you excited and I am but the thought of when I turn away from grandchildren(oh dear wheres the tissues) is always present. But Harry will be worth it - its when he first sees you and beams. Best wishes Moira
  20. How delightful for your granddaughter and for the queen I hope good health continues Moira
  21. how devastating. I am so sorry and I hope you dont give up. Moira
  22. That is so much easier than UK. It all sou nds great. Lovely to hear from you Moira
