  1. Maybe we should all practice being positive like the aussies so we’re ready for our new lives!
  2. I think they've managed about 3 months in a year, but June 15 had a LOT of applications!!
  3. Congrats jimbob007 hope you don’t have to wait too much longer!
  4. I would have thought they take it from when they start processing the AoS , but not sure
  5. Seem to be getting two responses these days from Immi ...the other one said 20 June 2015! PROCESSING CONTRIBUTORY PARENT VISAS In the 2018-19 Migration Programme year, 7175 Contributory Parent visa places are available for applicants applying from inside and outside of Australia. Due to high number of Contributory Parent visa applications lodged each week, the processing time has exceeded 49 months. · OFFSHORE APPLICANTS (subclass 143 and 173) When your application is allocated to a case officer, you or your authorised contact will be asked to provide more documents, including (but not limited to) an Assurance of Support (subclass 143 only), police certificates and health clearances to finalise your application. We are currently assessing applications lodged up to 01 July 2015. · ONSHORE APPLICANTS (subclass 864 and 884) When your application is allocated to a case officer, you or your authorised contact will be asked to provide more documents, including (but not limited to) an Assurance of Support (subclass 864 only), police certificates and health clearances to finalise your application.

  6. We filled in everything we could when we applied via our agent, but I think a lot of that will need to be updated so we’ll be looking into that after Christmas.
  7. That makes a lot of sense as we’re on 40 months at the moment and expect to get asked to do AoS in about a month or so! which would mean another 8/9 months until granted.
  8. Congrats have a lovely Christmas....it’s getting nearer..........
  9. Just just sent email to immi for latest dates and received 2 responses! One saying 20 June 2015 and other saying 29 June for 143!
  10. Thats good news.....hopefully June is almost sorted! Good luck
  11. Congrats...enjoy life in Oz....I think we'll be Waiting longer as we’re on 40 months and haven’t even started yet!
  12. It really depends on how many people the politicians decide they want to allow in each year....they are cutting back year on year, and as there have been more and more applications the length of wait can change drastically. we were quoted 18 months to 2 years when we applied August 2015, and we're still waiting and haven't been asked to prepare documents or medicals etc yet! Probably will be 3.5 - 4 years for us....so no idea about your timeline. Best advice just live life as normal until you hear ...don't expect it at a certain time or you'll get really depressed!
  13. Hi if it is and it’s early December they will really have to move! I can’t see it being processed until July next year...the beginning of the new processing year as I think June 2015 took all the visas they’re willing to grant during this year! Sorry to sound so pessimistic but we’ve been waiting so long and being treated so badly as regards processing etc. that I don’t see things changing dramatically.
  14. I do wonder how true this is though as we’re on 39.5 months and haven’t heard anything at all so if something happens in the next few weeks Aos will have to move itself to reach even the 45 month target!
  15. We’ve been waiting 39 months and still have not had an invite to proceed with Aos etc so we expect 48 months at least, but then we were told 18 when we started....you really can not take their date as gospel, and if you applied today I would suggest just get on with living and don’t think about the date at all!
  16. Maybe they know the time it’s going to take so not asking yet as our medical and police checks may run out?
  17. Hope you do soon. Still wondering why we’ve heard nothing yet concerning medical police etc when we’re only 6 weeks behind you yet you started to process in May? Very disheartening. Think maybe ours won’t happen until July of next year...when they start the new year of visas??
  18. At least it’s in Oz! We’d rather be in Port Macquarie though which has about half the population of Rockhampton!
  19. We feel your stress...as we have a live in job, which we originally we told our boss would probably mean us leaving Feb 2017....the original 18 months! Then we’ve extended a bit more and a bit more, thankfully with an understanding boss, but he wants to do things with the property now...so we’ve said Sept 2019 for now but even then we can’t be sure and may be living in rented accommodation until everything is finalised! Also family is on continual hold mode - they have lives as well but can’t prgress until Aos is sorted! Frustration
  20. Just sent email date is still 12 June 2015! Frustration continues!
  21. Can you go back and do the meds and police check again if the date is ridiculously near?
  22. Thanks Merryweather for an interesting and honest account of your new life! and good luck. I suppose once we all get through the tortuous wait we won’t believe we’re there for good either! Hope the sun continues to shine on you and your family.
