  1. Hubby will need to retake the IELTS test to qualify for full marks off 20 points, he got 7,7,8,9 last time which was enough before new changes in July 2011, so will get that sorted as soon as.

     

    Need to check which states are definately sponsoring his qualification.

     

    I am assuming that we will have to medicals done again for a 'new' application?? I suppose ploice checks will be ok as long as the dont run out?

     

     

    Your medicals last for 12 months can you check with your old co to ask that they keep them safe as you will be applying again.

  2. Thank you and I hope your house sells quickly, will no doubt stay on hear to keep up with everyones news.

     

    Do 176 state sponsored visa take long???????

     

    ONWARDS AND UPWARDS.................................................................:wacko:

    I am not sure how long it takes to get a sponsor, I don't think it takes long but once you have that you should be allocated a co straight away I hear it take around to months to grant.

  3. So, not good news from our camp I'm afraid, no right to appeal the decision. So gutted......

     

    Dont know where we go from here??? I dont want to give up on my dream just yet.............

     

    Maybe state sponsorship???? will spend some time later looking into it but not really sure how it all works.................????????

     

    Best start saving them pennies!!! if we do anything its going to have to been sooner rather than later...OH turns 45 next November and would like to get it before the July 2012 changes...

     

     

    So sorry to hear that, glad you haven't given up and good luck please keep us informed of how it all goes.

  12. Update from Pimb

     

     

    My Brother was finally allocated a CO. After much begging and pleading with the agent to please follow it up!

     

    Police Clearance check for South Africa take 6 weeks. On week 5 I called up to see if they were ready, to be told they have no record of his application. So it took him another week to sort himself out and get a new application sent off around the 21/11/2011. So that will only be finalised in about 6-8 weeks including postage time!!!

    Medicals done!

     

    So yes still in the processes but no visa as yet.

    Thanks for your concern.

     

    Will hopefully post with further news when PCC come back.

     

    P.S my username on the forum is Pimb

    Hi and welcome to this thread I have now added your details to the front page.

  14. Tania, was this with express estate agents?? How have you found them to be??

     

    we had a meeting with one of there local reps a few weeks ago and OH is keen to use them when we want to sell, they gave a good sales pitch, so I am interested in what you thought???

     

    Yeah we like them, communication is good by email mainly unless they have a viewing or feedback for you then its a phone call and they send text to your phone to confirm viewings, find them very friendly and I like the different kind of approach they have yeah they are more expensive but if they do their job then I am happy and at the end of the day its down to you weather you except what offers come in :biggrin:

  15. So we had our viewing on Saturday and my agent came back to me just over an hour after to say they would like to view again next Saturday, had a phone call today to say they would like to view this Tuesday night instead.

  16. i thought case officer initials were ok?...

     

    Also as you've quoted the post you will need to remove the details from your post too...

     

    Thanks for that Bp I forgot to do it. I personally would not like my initals being splashed over forums. I just find it disrespectful to the person who is the CO.

     

    Thanks for your concern! Although I also thought it was ok to post the case officers initials!? xxx

     

    I don't think intials would give anything away but for argument sake we could just not put anything in future if we are all ok with this. Thanks

  17. Hi all...

     

    Its taken me 45 minutes to update the spreadsheet today....not complaining though as it means loads of activity.....:biggrin:

    Great start to the week, long may it continue....

     

    Thanks, I never win anything so would like to thank................... ect :biggrin:
