Hi there, we moved here 3 months ago, we had a 3 wk holiday on the GC and loved it then we moved into our rental in Redland Bay. It was too quiet there and we were able to break our lease when we found another family to move into Redland bay house. We are currently living in Broadbeach Waters in a quiet family friendly cul de sac, but minutes from everything. My son (10yrs) goes to Broadbeach state school, it's across from the beach and he has settled in and made friends. We'll probably stay in this rental for 2 yrs but then we'll definitely look to buy here.

Aww massive congratulations. The time after grant absolutely flies in! We have our leaving party this Saturday and fly out to brisbane in 2 wks. Good luck!

Hi i front loaded all documents, lodged 190 on 26th June, granted on 20th August. It just went straight to grant, I didn't even know when a CO was allocated. Good luck. I have my last day at work here in the UK today and fly out to Brisbane in 3 weeks. Eeek! Good luck and hang in there! The waiting is torture but when you get the grant, the time flies in. Carolann

hi we used This is Australia in Surfers Paradise, queensland. They were amazing. I was up against time as I had to lodge my visa before my 45th birthday to get the 15 points, they would send me a list of what I needed to do at several stages throughout the process so that when the time came to lodge, the documents/info was all there, making the process less stressful. My visa was lodged about 8 wks before my birthday. The whole process took around 8 months, couldn't have done it without them. I am a nurse from Scotland and applied whilst in the UK. Good luck, hope this helps Carolann

Aww congratulations, it's a great feeling isn't it? I finish work here in 3 wks then fly out to Qld on 17th October

I've never heard of the 1221, but our agent got us to fill in the form 80 prior to lodging our visa. Good luck y'all

I lodged the 190 on June 26th and visa was granted 20th August, I'm sure ur not far away if not already heard. Good luck

In my experience Yes. Good luck!

Hi there, I'm not sure about the onshore but I lodged my 190 visa on 26th June and it was granted on 20th August. All documents incl. medicals and pcc's were front loaded so visa went straight to grant without me hearing from a CO. The waiting is excruciating but at least you're there already. We fly out 17tg October

The agent we used had got us to fill the form 80 in before we lodged. They prepared our EOI so well, nothing was needed or requested. All documents front loaded and visa granted just under 8wks of lodging. Hope u hear soon

July 2016. I've already handed in my notice at work, leaving party booked for 3rd October and flights booked for 17th October lol, I'm not messing about

No idea cengland, I had to provide references also. thanks MissNancy. Still hasn't sunk in

I was a bit overkill! .

Heading to Queensland, brisbane or Gold Coast x

Case officer didn't ask for anything, our agent just had me well prepared so that we would be ready for grant without being asked for anything. Can't believe it!!
