Big Bob

Hi all just wanted to share our good news - me and the kids are officially PERMANENT residents of Australia as of 10.00 am this morning!!!

:biggrin:

Cant believe we got subclass 100 - such a relief I can't tell you. Geoff is so pleased as you can imagine - he's had the bubbly on ice all day waiting for the call!!! I was on the phone to him as the email came through so he had up to the minute information lol. Just sorry we cant be together right now as I just so want to give him a big hug! If anyone is in the Western Suburbs - can you pop over and give him a big squeeze from me and the kids lol:wink:

 

As many of you will know from Geoff's (aka tracy123) posts we have had a rocky road to get to this point but I can tell you that email we received this morning has just made it all worth while - am so happy I could burst.

 

Just got our bags to pack and then we are on real count down to 3rd Feb - Melbourne here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:biggrin:

 

Good luck to all those still waiting

 

Tracy xx

 

PS Geoff is still struggling with setting up the modem at home (OMG I have a home in Australia pinch me I still can't quite belive it) but he will be back online soon with all our updates and trials and tribulations no doubt

Congratulations Mrs Wrigles :biggrin:...You are already in Cloud 9...cheers :fish:

You mean they won't hold the processing of existing applications?

Yes Lankan1...They wont be taking new applications...as system will be down...But that wont affect the processing time of 12 weeks :arghh:... I did cross checked with my agent...They said possible we expect more result e-mails from them during the same time....

 

 

Welcome Big Bob!!! You got SS from another state & became priority 2? BTW Victoria was not very tough on Network security people recently :cute:

Thanks Lankan1... I am hoping for the best and am optimistic...just joined POMS...had been an active member in other sites...How come you say that VIC is not very tough on Network Security people :wubclub:...thanks

hey Bob, Good to see that you are here ..

 

Cheers,

Hie Foha....I just overheard your discussion with YOYO :wink:...So I am here....:biggrin:

Hi fellow posters,

 

Would the selection / rejection process also be suspended during the period the VIC website goes down for maintenance ?. Or is it because they wanna clear the applications in hand first before accepting any new ones..

 

Comments please ?

 

Cheers,

 

TAA

No..... I checked with my MARA agent...:biggrin:
