I'm interested in this one too, we plan to do much the same thing after we've had our medicals and police checks ....... and of course if the house has sold! Maisie

That's good to hear Freesia, even though we're still waiting it gives a boost knowing that things are moving on and another has made it past the goal posts - enjoy a wonderful life in Oz x Best wishes maisie

Val - hope reducing the price of your house has the desired results, hopefully interest will start picking up very soon and you'll have an offer, then you can get yourself over there and start having a brilliant time x We've had two viewings in two weeks but no offers duh!

Congratulations Barry, brilliant news - 2015 and is going to be a good year :-) Enjoy maisie

LOL - we've made copies of everything, got a houseful of copies LOL We also put on the form 'dates are to the best of my recollection' best wishes maisie

That's a good idea Summerskybird, it's a bit funny really when you think about it! The older you get the worse your memory becomes and here we are trying to fill in forms where you need to remember back to your birth!! I've been working since I was 15 and had a few jobs over the years so we really had to rack our brains. Plus IMMI don't like blanks I'm told, you have to fill all the gaps. Good luck maisie

Congratulations Joe, it's a really nice feeling isn't it :smile: Best wishes maisie

I found $2 to the £1 first thing this morning, just checked again and it's gone back down to $1.98

That's brilliant Steve, great news - I bet you were both beaming this morning :-)

Steve - We've had to fill in the dreaded 'Form 80' !! Took us ages trying to think back to where we lived and worked at any given time and where we've been on holiday etc etc! Maybe you wont have to do it - one can only hope ! ...... and yes, we both had to fill one in . Best wishes maisie
-
Thank you so much for the info, and it makes perfect sense :-) Best wishes maisie

You must be sooooooo excited :-) Can I ask which airline you're flying with and how do you go about getting the extra baggage allowance please? Best Wishes Maisie

Thought this might help: We lodged 09/04/14 and our acknowledgement said we could apply for police checks from 09/02/15 and medical checks from 09/04/15. From advise we've received we are going to apply later because of the 12 months rule. AOS (as in my daughter contacting them) was also after 09/04/15. We have also been required to fill in the dreaded form 80 - that was fun!!!!!!!! Good luck to you all Maisie

Great news Julie, so pleased for you - think I'd leave the feedback until I'd got my visa too LOL.

Great news Amanda, feels great to get it doesn't it :-) .... another step forward x Just out of interest, we went through Moneycorp this morning and got $1.92.61 best wishes maisie

I think with Westpac that you can open the account online and then you can validate the account in person here in the UK giving you complete access to your money - that's if you fancy a trip to London of course :-) Maisie
-
That's good to know Val, that's something we need to get set up. Trying to decide between Westpac, NAB or ANZ but I'm guessing they're all much of muchness Maisie
-
All working ok here Val, received email without any problems. Very good exchange rate, we've been watching it too x
-
Woohoo! That's absolutely brilliant news, so pleased for you, this is the start of the next wonderful phase of your lives, enjoy xxxxx Marilyn

Hi Vava I'll still be keeping everything crossed for a sale for you :smile: maisie x
-
Good luck with the house sale Steve I hope it sells quickly for you. Our house has been up for sale since last February and so will be talking about dropping the price at the end of this month or next!! Kindest regards maisie
-
Hi Roberta2 - then I guess, if the medical is failed you would still have the money for the 2nd vac and would have to look around and buy again! A big pain of course but for some of us selling is the only way to pay the 2nd vac. It's a leap of faith but one we have to try to be able to live the rest of our lives with our family ! Kindest regards Maisie
-
So great to hear of a success :yes: Steve2 - soon be our turn ... hopefully!
-
Hi Julie, Our paperwork said Police Checks after February 9th and Medicals after April 9th. It depends on when you are hoping to get out there as the police checks and medicals are only valid for a year and you don't really want to pay for them twice. We will get them done a bit nearer the time. Like Vava has said, house sales are pretty slow around my part of the country and ours went on the market last February, so we are nearly a year in. Steve 2 - we have to sell our house too to fund the 2nd vac!
-
Hi Julie Our acknowledgement letter advised dates after which we could get our police checks and medicals, so at the moment we are counting the days until we can do that. Good luck to you Maisie
