Well after being back in uk for 9years we are heading back to oz. has anyone got any shipping companies they have used from Scotland to sydney ...cheers Lorraine

thanks my oh has has some famil:biggrin:gy there so fingers crossed house sells and we'll be there before end of year good luck when u get there:)

cant believe im posting again. i have just returned from a 2 week holiday in sydney with my son in which this activated his visa and allowed me to see if its somewhere were i wanted to bring up my children. after returning home from oz nearly 10years ago . we have decided to put our house back up for sale and are hooping to return to oz ...3rd time lucky fingers crossed:biggrin:!!

Yes you could go an apply for a Child 802 from a Visitors visa, he would get a bridging visa until his Child Visa was granted. Processing times onshore are longer and it costs more.

 

There may be an issues getting in to Schools on a Bridging visa? But hopefully as you are PR this shouldnt be an issue.

Thanks il have a look into chid 802 and cost from there it cost us all in abt £1200 here !

I dont think we would have time again here to go through processfor son's visa. i could really kick myself for not validating for year!

I can't really help, but could you maybe give us a little more information...which visa do the rest of you have? When was it granted? When did you validate?

Hi 3 of us have perm res visa 176 which are valid until april 2014 we did go thro proccess last year for youngest but dudnt validate his visa they gave us a few mths extention but we cldnt do it in timescales so thot orginally we wld just stay in uk we have lived in oz before but obv came home and the should we shouldnt we go back as been in back of our heads for last 6 years!!! would our son not be able to go to school then on a diff visa to us ?? thanks

Hi There,long story short myself my hubby and daughter have permanent residency visa,s,however my 6 year old son has not. We went through the process and got him his visa but we just could not get to OZ to validate it , even when we got an extension we did not manage to get it done(totally sick as cost a lot of money and time and effort). What I was wondering is if any one knows if it is possible for us still to go and to get our sons visa whilst living in Australia and any ideas of the timescales. We dont want to go then have to leave because our son is only on a tourist visa or whatever type of visa he would qualify for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
