Aww right iam with you yes they wouldn't except the printable one I phoned them and they sent me it through the post on their official headed paper, I then had to do a statutory declaration to say that I had misplaced the original and this information was a true! Also had to have the statement of entry and stat declaration certified .

Thanks ken, so I need to inform the oz bank of my tfn number when received?, iam keeping my current accounts open in the UK so do I need to do anything? Sorry iam useless with financial issues such as tax!

They need the NMC statement of entry sent directly to them, if you ring the NMC they will send you a form to complete to request they send it to anmac they charge 34 pounds for this, just a tip if your going to be applying for ahpra soon 2 request this address too and include the template letter off the ahpra website in with NMC form save you paying twice like I did. Good luck.

Great thanks, again hahah!

Hi Bungo, yes iam going 1/5/2016 flight all booked, now my visa has come through so will transfer the money the week before.

Iam totally lost, so iam selling my house in the UK and from the sale iam transferring say for example 30000, sorry Ken my knowledge on this is zilch! What do I need to do as I have not thought about this, I have secured a transfer at a good rate with halo but didn't think about tax! Any advice appreciated.

All done thanks everyone. Loulou

Great thanks captain c hubby going mad here but gonna press that pay button now, looked at the link the ones iam looking at much the same reviews so hey ho here goes!

Say for instance your are delayed what happens to the connecting flight, would you suggest we look for a longer stop or should this be sufficient enough?

Thanks all just want a decent airline :-/

Fab thanks flying from London to Perth this has a 2hr stop in Dubai think iam going to book this tonight, have you flown with Emirates are they ok?

Hi guys and gals, searching all day for flights determined to book, found one on quantas 3,300 but says flights operated by Emirates and if I go to Emirates site its 2300 so does this mean if I book with quantas I will still be travelling with Emirates so just as well book with Emirates and save.... So confused!

Of course itegoa everyone entitled to their own opinion and that's what iam after some info so I can make my own decision. To be honest iam edging towards quanta (but there's a first for everything haha), no seriously never been to oz only America and personally I would not fly there with anyone but Virgin, they are 1st class in my opinion.

I know captain c can't help avoiding known risk though and was thinking this is probably why they are so cheap, building back up their rep! Sorry that was meant to be a 2 hr stop! This is an ideal price and flight just wondering whether 1k more will at least make me less anxious, my husband pulling his hair out with me :-/ will have a look at prices over next few days and hopefully will book by the end of the wk!

This is with malyasia airlines though, 1 2 hr stop in Kuala Lumpur then to Perth, a bit nervous after the incident last year though but quant as wants 1k more but this is a Dubai stop! I know iam overthinking and anything can happen anytime but that's me lol, any thoughts guys and girls ?

Thanks yet again both, I analyse everything so iam looking for the catch this price seems to good to be true, things are getting real now so much to do in 6months but I will get there, sorry for all the constant questions but just need advice from people who been there and got the t shirt as they say, wouldn't worry if it was just myself and husband a little more of a worry with children in towe!

After reading other comments thought u needed so many identity docs to gain points or am I confused?? Either way I will still need to register with the Medicare system though, this is all so confusing it I will get there :-/

Great thought so will secure that today once less thing to do! Thanks bungo, lots to think about now!

Thank you Que Sera, sera, ur advice is appreciated, may take a chance only for six weeks while we settle and price is good.

Hi all iam going to be in a similar situation but in oz, thinking of staying at the quest hotel in mandurah can I use this address for the Medicare cards etc as need these for proof of id to rent asap ?

Thanks both really appreciate it, anyone stayed at quest reading mixed reviews? Loulou

Sorry all me again! Looking at booking flights for a family of 4 to Perth found a good price of 2100 gbp for April next year with Malaysia airlines, just wondering if it's worth booking now, does international flight prices rise of fall closer to time? Thanks Loulou

Hi all, After finally receiving our visa grants yesterday its time to get booking! We have decided that due to not having jobs to go to (mad I know) we are going to look at renting in the area of mandurah way. We have two reasonable quotes for a 8 wk stay at a house in Lakelands (which by what I can see in a 5min drive)and at the quest hotel. Can any one offer their advice on which one would be more beneficial. We will be using this as a base so we can explore the suberbs and get all the formalities sorted and while we look for long term rental! Thanks all Loulou

Thanks captain c cant stop smiling! To those still waiting Good Luck and hang on in there that email is worth it all xx

Hi all so excited just received that golden email so pleased the waiting was all worth while :-) Submitted 17/July, last document uploaded 7 days ago can't quite believe it we are going to Austrailia :-) Thank you to everyone on pio who has helped along the way and especially to you captain c and bungo for the help when I nearly had a breakdown regarding the police checks lol! Now time to celebrate xxx
