i was told by immigration the police Certs must be valid at time of application submitted not the time they look at it! Mine have expired since submission in October so I'm hoping this is not required, can I ask what country were the police Certs required for?

When you submitted the application was your police check still valid? Mine has expired since submission of application in October but I was assured by immigration it must be valid at time of application only? I haven't left Oz since I arrived

Hi Hi I have a question re the Uk Police check validity Police check expired 29/12/2014 Nomination submitted May 2014 and approved August 2014 Medicals completed September visa application submitted 10th Oct i still haven't heard and now worried it will be rejected due to police check which has since expired? What are the rules ? Valid at time of submission or approval? Many thanks

We fly to Melbourne on January 6th and I left work yesterday morning............... It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do! I love my job and love my friends and colleagues and have been in tears since AND then my son finished school today and the children made a collage for him with photos and messages. All the kids came up to hug him and me, and tears were shed by all including his teacher! I have been so positive and organised about this move but have found it very difficult today with my wobbles which I know is to be expected but my god emotions really get you up and down!!!

I am moving to Melbourne in January working as a midwife, when I researched areas the eastern side is more expensive for housing and rentals and made it less affordable. Compared to the west side which seems more reasonably priced with modern housing so less established but lots of building work going on and my husband works in the construction industry so should be easier to find work!

Send it to Darwin they process is super fast! Avoid Melbourne, Perth and Sydney and just go through everything to ensure you have it all there, documents must be notarised by a public notarty not a solicitor. Good Luck I fly Jan 6th will be working at Sunshine Hospital

Fantastic read ...... we arrive in Melbourne 11th January myself, husband and 2 children aged 10 and 15 years. I am excited and scared all in one been .....been planning it for so long and the last hurdle was handing in my notice officially at work, and I have since become a tad emotional about leaving my job and the lovely people I work with. Family are already planning their dates to visit which is good. My 15 year old is slowly coming round to the idea which is a huge improvement as he has always refused to go! which adds stress to the whole situation but we are getting there! Looking forward to our new challenge with its ups and downs!! Keep on with the updates xxx
