We did an expo a couple of years ago, but will probably do the one in June which is in Leeds. Looks like it is full steam ahead for you guys then, well at least you will be able to fill us all in what it is really like before we get there. You on fb? Charlotte

Hi 2014 god that is ages away. Good on your mum for offering to help. How old are your children. When do you envisage to be over there then? Would be good to keep in contact. Charlotte

Hey. Looked you up, so hopefully you should have friend request. If not mine details are Charlotte Burton. Picture is of my little boy asleep on the floor. Maybe it would be a nice idea to meet up at some point if your up for that? Charlotte x

Hey We were initially thinking Duncraig (compromise by the oh as I wanted to live in Hilarys, but there is no way that we could afford to live there), but like the sound of Melville which is SOR. Have a look at the link as it gives you the best 25 suburbs in Perth. To be honest, it all depends on the schools, as that is the most important think for us.

Hey Nic Im guesing then that you are a Nurse. Lol. If so what type of Nurse. We are Wilsden, Bradford, West Yorkshire but dont really like saying Bradford. Lol. I am from Leeds originally. Hopefully I wont work for the first year, but just depends on oh job. Dont know how I feel about that though, as I have never not worked. Yes I work part time have done for the last 6 years, work for the local hospice within administration. My background though is recruitment which I did for 13 years prior to having kids, but I am also a secretary and have worked within childcare. I forgot to include the link for you, so here it is. http://localvoices.realestate.com.au...tern-australia Are you on fb? Charlotte x

Hi Justin Just realised that I never enclosed it. http://localvoices.realestate.com.au...tern-australia We have friends that are living in the 1st four and said that they are absolutley brill areas to live even if you dont have kids. Take care Charlotte

Hi Lorraine What age are you children? My oh didnt think he would do well in the ILETS, as they said that he needed to get 8 in all areas, but he got 8.5 overall, so tell him not to worry too much. My oh is a site manager for a house builder, but a joiner by trade. Did they tell you how long to wait for your Vetessess results? Our was 16½ weeks, which apparently is what they state on their website. They are not allowed to go longer than that though apprarently. Hows was the Expo? Charlotte

Good luck with everything. Where abouts are you thinking of living when you get there? Charlotte

Hi Nic Here is the link that I used which gave me the info for the best suburbs. Sorry for sounding daft, but what is AHPRA, as never heard of this. We have just had our application submitted to the DIAC by our agent, so just now waiting a case worker. Notice that you are in Warrington, we are in West Yorkshire, so not that far really. Do you plan on working when you get there? Charlotte

Hi Lisa Would be great to keep in touch and meet up, but think East Sussex is a bit to far as we are in West Yorkshire.

Hi Suzanne We are from West Yorkshire. Yes agree would be good for us all to keep in contact, as we all seem to be at the same stage. What job offer have you got? Charlotte

Hi Nic We are also thinking about Duncraig, but also like the look of Melville which is SOR. Did a seach for the best suburb in Perth, and that came out 1st. What stage of the process are you at? Charlotte

Hi Paula Not really to sure of areas to be honest, but like the look of Melville and Duncraig, but all depends on oh work. Where abouts are you thinking of going? Charlotte

Hi Helene73 Where abouts SOR you looking at? Do you have children? Regards Charlotte

Hi Aussie BoundWhere abouts do you plan to go to in Perth? We havent really decided yet, but like the idea of Duncraig, Greenwood, Ocean Reef, Kingsley. Would like to go to Hillarys, but think it it too expensive. Our agent has just submitted our application to the DIAC, so we are just awaiting a case officer, which hopefully shouldnt be too long. What stage are you at?Do you have children.Charlotte

We are a family of 4 myself 35, Stuart 39, Eve 6 and Max 2 and we are looking at moving to Perth in October / November 2012. We are looking at meeting people who are already out there or are going to be out there that would be interested in meeting up or staying in contact. Its our first time in Perth, not been to Oz before, so we are keen to meet new people. Cheers Charlotte

Sorry for late reply. Have you been to Perth before? Where abouts in Canada are you? I have family who are in Vancouver. Seems that you like to travel.Keep in touchCharlotte

Hey everyone. Just thought I would update you all with my good news. We got our WA State Sponsorship on Monday which happened really quick. Our agent only submitted it on Thursday. He is now lodging with the DIAC, so fingers crossed we should be allocated with a case officer within the next 2 months. So exciting.

ag Hi Sophie Sounds very similar to us, we are just awaiting to hear back from the DIAC, but our agent has said that at the very latest everything will be finialsed by July. We are planning on being over by October hopefully. We have 2 children aged 6 and 2 and are looking at the Duncraig area. We have family over there that has been there for 30 years. What does your husband do in construction? Mine is a site manager for a house builder. Charlotte

I have tried to find you on fb, but as I dont know what you look like it is proving quite difficult. You could try me if you want. Charlotte Burton, Bradford, West Yorkshire. My picture is of my little boy asleep on the floor. What does your hubby do in construction? Mine is a site manager for a house builder, but is a joiner by trade. Charlotte

Hhow do we go about getting to no more infor about the get together before Christmas? We should be over by November at the latest, and would be great to meet up with people in the same situation.

I will pm you my email address unless you are on facebook. The DIAC is the Department of Immigration and Citizenship. They are the ones who give you the visa. Where do you guys live?

Hi SineadDont know if you saw my earlier post, but we are in the same posiiton as you. Going over in October and there are 4 of us. How old are your children?Charlotte

Hi SarahIt might not take you as long as you think. We are just awaiting for DIAC to come back but all in all timescales wise it would have been 10 months from what our agent says. We started the process in October and he recons at the very latest it will be July. It would be nice to keep in contact with people as with having the kids similar ages, they hopefully will settle in and make friends easier. I can pm you my fb and email details if you want to keep in contact. Charlotte

Thats great news. What is your job offer? I see that you are in Burnley, we live in Wilsden, Bradford. We used to go over that way quite a lot as we used to have a static caravan at Glusburn. How do your kids feel about going?Charlotte
