<p><p>Hi</p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Sorry for the late reply. I hope all is well with your family.</p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Our container left for Brisbane on Friday. Just moved back with parents for the last 5 weeks. Just read my earlier message and we have completely changed our minds on the move. We are now going to Brisbane instead of Melbourne. Still no jobs which feels quite risky but fingers crossed it all works out.</p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Are you any closer on booking flights</p></p>

<p><p>Hi</p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Oh brill - have a fantastic holiday in Oz! That will really give you a sense of what you want from your move. </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>We've been so busy trying to get things organised. The list is just getting longer. So far flights booked, estate agent confirmed for renting our house, crown booked and short term apartment booked. Still lots to do.</p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Well I wish you the very best </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Good luck</p></p>

<p><p>Hi Sol2Oz</p></p>
<p><p>I hope you don't mind me sending you a message. I just saw your name and thought I'd ask how you are getting along with your move to Oz as I remember wishing you to get your visa on one of the threads.</p></p>
<p><p>We got our visa in June and are moving to Brisbane in October.</p></p>
<p><p>Best wishes </p></p>
<p><p>Jit</p></p>

Congrats on getting a CO - very quick time too I was only requested to get meds and pcc done too - no mention of anything else. I would assume your CO doesn't request any further information 'time of the month' would affect the medical for the urine test as they test for protein, glucose and blood in the sample. There is a big difference in quotes there. Just my advice is to make sure that the hospital can do all the tests including the chest x-ray on the same day. Also make sure they are able to use the ehealth system so that they upload your results using your TRN number rather then you having to post the report to Oz. Good luck

Sorry cant help with your questions mj&db but congrats on getting a case officer!

<p><p>We are also looking to Melbourne. We still have a lot to sort out though. We have to rent out our house, sort all the bank stuff out, shipping but most importantly we need to get jobs. I think if my husband, who is also an accountant like myself, can secure a job first it would make life easier. I can then concentrate on finding somewhere to live etc. We would like to rent a flat centrally first just because it would be quite exciting. </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Obviuosly if we find a better job in Sydney then we will go there but we think the cost of living will be very expensive there.</p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>What work do you guys do?</p></p>

We had a few celebratory drinks over the bank holiday :goofy: :wink: Just waiting for it all to sink in. Hubby is very determined to get everything sorted now. I'm keeping a bottle of champagne ready for when we can finally say "we're off"
-
WOW thats brilliant and such a quick turnaround - Congratulations!
-
You've spent quite some time in the waiting room - fingers crossed you get granted your visa soon
-
It seems to be quite a general question but I just answered it using my status as an example. You weren't wrong to reply!!!

Thanks StaceyLacey and Bloomberg It says on our status that we have until 28th May 2013 to enter Australia to validate our visa and also gives a date 5 years down the line for the validity of our visa (see below) [TABLE=class: tablecolour, width: 100%, align: center] [TR] [TD=width: 40%]Your visa is valid until:[/TD] [TD=width: 60%]04/06/2017 [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=width: 40%]You are allowed to make:[/TD] [TD=width: 60%]Multiple entries to and from Australia during the validity of your visa [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=width: 40%]You must not arrive in Australia after:[/TD] [TD=width: 60%]28/05/2013 [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=width: 40%]Your period of stay is:[/TD] [TD=width: 60%]Indefinite [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]

GREAT NEWS EVERYONE - OUR VISA HAS BEEN GRANTED!!!!! :biglaugh: I've been away for a few days so I've not been able to update, but our visa was granted on Monday. My husband and I are so so so so so so happy. We've only just told his parents, but I'm very nervous about telling mine. They know that we are waiting but it has all happened quite fast. I can't say anything at work yet so I'm so grateful I have you guys on PIO. We now need to sort out jobs, rent out the house, and get quotes for moving our stuff. We're hoping to be in Melbourne later on this year, but it just depends on how quickly we can secure jobs. Just like PatrickW, I would like to say a big big thank you to everyone on this thread for the advice and support over the months. You've kept me sane!! Thanks again everyone Jit

Congratualtions PatrickW - Good luck down under!!
-
Mine showed required but when you get a case officer your status should say application being processed further and/or email sent to you. Once a CO goes through your app, the required status will change to met. I waited for the email before getting my medical and pcc done but that is entirely your decision. Good luck
-
I guess that will be my daily routine now!!
-
One day into the waiting room and I think I have officially gone mad. I have been checking my status constantly. I checked at 11pm last night then 2am then 5 am and about 4 times since then. I bet the case officer has gone home already and making dinner on the bbq and yet i still keep checking! :arghh: :mad:
-
Thats ok - thanks for updating it
-
I didn't realise you were still waiting. Have you been in touch with your CO? I wonder what the delay is.
-
Please can you update my details as above but we've received the cerificates so they will be loaded tomorrow Thanks
-
Who is looking after the google document now? Please can my details be amended. We had our medicals on 23rd May and the hospital have signed everything off today and loaded details onto our case (however they do that) I'm still waiting for the police certificates but I've been away for 2 days so I'm hoping they are waiting for me at home
-
Wow another one - Congratulations
-
YAY!!!! Congratulations Sol2Oz - after such a long wait getting a case officer you deserved a speedy grant! Enjoy the celebrations
