<p>Hi, I have posted some pictures of Amy with some of her " catch of the day" photo's. I couldn't work out how to put photo on the fishing thread page, so I made up an album, chat soon, stay well</p>

<p>Sharon, I really wish you all the best, remember everybodies case is different, and circumstances are taken into account, stay away for a bit if it is causing you additional stress, the only person who can really help you is your case officer, they are human, talk to him/her or write a letter if you find it easier, wishing you all the luck and hopefully one way or another you will be in Oz soon,</p>

<p>hope you enjoyed you descent down Ben Nevis, its nice to know your getting closer to the pub, and well done for your effort and inclination and for supporting such a good cause.</p>

<p>thanks, you too, you'd think they could just process all aplications up to the quota, then do an annual shutdown for a month, pay staff pro rota, everybody would be better off, they are basically paying staff to go slower.</p>

<p>Hi sharon I tried to ring CO but she was out of the office, but from what I can gather, the 5-6 month wait is for permanant visa's, I am applying for the prospective marriage visa, which is classed a temporary visa, as it's only valid for 9 months, during which time you have to get married and then apply for partner visa ( perm) I don't know what visa you have applied for, but I can't remember the last time I had a good nights sleep! I will try my co again on monday and let you know what is said.</p>

<p>Oh no, hopefully the timeline is just a worse case senario, I am due to be married 20.10.2010, in Oz, everything arranged, we were originally told in Oz that Londaon had a 4-8 wk processing time, then applied June to be told 12wks, then got an email yesterday from co saying 12-16weeks, I am sure I shall have a nervous breakdown before this is over. keep us posted and good luck.</p>
