Thanks GeorgeD.

Have been told by case officer i can leave Aus and she'll grant visa, have booked flight to NZ for next Thurs.

 

Timescale then has been just over 5 months. Sent my application off on 13 June and had ackowledgement from Australia House on 18th June, so they've been a bit quicker than i thought!

Hi Jimmyay1 how many days must you spend in New Zealand before the visa is activated. Thanks

Still collating my application. I was granted a temp spouse visa in 2003, left UK for Aussie, and returned back to UK with family within a year. Now returning as family of 5. Wondering if wait times will still be 5 months. Contacted High Commission was informed visa has since been cancelled.
