We were told Mid-July too! I was told to email them mid-July - what date is considered mid??!!!!
15th??? thats like a week from today!!! yay!
As we're not in a massive hurry, I'll leave sending an e-mail until the end of the month (if we haven't heard from our CO who is SV).
Good luck, let me know when you get yours!
-
Yep! :cute: thanks. We have done the police check already, got that back last week, so we can add that in with the application. How far in are you with yours and are you guys doing a partner/prsopective marriage/ or a defacto application?
We were told mid July, so not long now! then I can go ahead and start booking things. I've got all my removal quotes and have been penciled in with the cheapest one (Nat Ross), we're aiming to fly out in the first week of October. I'm sending our gear 5 weeks before we leave.
We have been together for 10 years, married 6, and have two kids (5&3)
How about you?

Thanks. That's what I thought, was a bit confused by all this talk of front-loading and doing the meds before the application has been submitted.
I sent our Police Certs in with the application, they'll give you 12 months to enter the country from the cert dates. So do those later if you want a longer stay before you head off... otherwise it could hold the application up, cause sometimes they can take a while for them to organise.
Clear as mud?

Yep, they'll contact you once they've received your application, then let you know if they need any further information, and then advise you to go ahead with medical, and where. Don't do it before, cause you need a reference number from them to quote to the hospital or medical centre.
I've gotta go to bed now, and try not to dream about Centipedes... bloody stupid syfy!!!
:SLEEP:

Hello All,
Anyone submitted their Visa recently? If so how long does it seem to be taking to get allocated a case officer?
We submitted my visa (309) at Australia House on Tuesday of last week and not heard back as yet, so just wondered how long it had taken other people to hear back? And also do they tend to e-mail or phone?
Hi there, I sent our application in by registered mail, and one week later we received phone call & and a follow up e-mail, requesting medical, and new police checks. My hubby had his medical done yesterday, and I sent all requested paperwork back registered mail two days ago. It seems to be quicker than I thought. I didn't think we'd have a case officer for a month or so... good news for us though

Morning everyone! I sent off our Partner visa Application two weeks ago, we've been contacted and requested to get the medical done, which has been booked for this Thursday, am I right in thinking this is the last step? will the visa be issued soon afterwards or is it still a 5 month wait? I'm just so suprised that the medical has been requested so soon. Mind you our application is very straight forward (been together for 10 years, 2 kids, no previous marriages etc). I guess I'd like to know how long after the medical did the visa come through? thanks muchly!

great thread. I've been over this side of the world for nearly 12 years. I came over single & childless, and are heading back with hubby & two kids (5&3). Its all my idea to head home, so I'm very nervous that its the right decision for all of us. In my guts I know the kids will love it. I just hope my hubby does too! we're just at the beginning of the visa process, and am very excited. I've so missed the weather & the seasons of home, I'm sick of the wet summers & the cold dark winters... I feel now, staying home with the kids, that we're indoors most days over here. Its time to give them a taste of the outdoors! woohoo!
