Yup, my application went through the Melbourne office, though I am in WA.

The days of waiting are over! It finally came! I am a day late in posting about it, as I was in the international terminal at LAX waiting for a flight back to Oz. I can't believe how good it felt to get the message that I was through. Thank you to everyone on this board, reading your messages and timelines helped keep me sane and kept me from worrying over my own! Congrats as well to Karen79, as it looks like we applied and received news on the same days! To those still waiting, stay patient, your day will come and it is very worth it! My timeline Visa and Nomination lodged Submitted decision ready: 16 April, 2014 Type: Transition Scheme Visa and Nomination Approved: 14 July, 2014 Nationality: American Migration Assistant Used

Hi Karen- According to the immi website (http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/186.aspx), it looks like form 80 is required "For each person included in the application who is 16 years of age or older: Form 80 - Personal particulars for assessment including character assessment (373 kB pdf). " Best of luck!

Hey Karen79, I submitted on the same day (Apr 16), though I did submit my nomination & application together. How did the inform you when your nomination was approved? Hopefully we'll both be getting some news in the next few weeks :smile:
