Someone in another thread who applied in March got their this week.

Great news, congratulations, We applied on the 19th March very soon after you so here's hoping! When are you hoping to move?

The forms themselves are not very difficult, you main challenge is collating all your evidence and getting is organised and uploaded to make it easy for the CO to read it all.

On a flight straight back to the UK about £30k worse off and without a home to go to, not being able to get the kids into their old schools, without a job...

Wow that is awful. I find it really unfair that they don't make contact to ask where the documents are - surely no one deliberately fails to upload documents. This is a nasty practise imo. To then have to go into an appeals process is very poor. They looked at it, found no documents and could easily have sent an email to your agent asking them what was going on.

Same problem in the UK - if the people already there don't want to do the agricultural jobs then you need migration to support agriculture. As the report noted, Backpackers take their money with them to travel, they don't spend it locally.

It will depend entirely on your budget!

I guess you are a bit stuck then! Unless you can convince your Agent to try.

It's got to be worth asking though right? I would.

It will have been submitted on the agent's immi account I think. Honestly not worth irritating your agent to ask, and from other post on here some case officers don't seem to update the status anyway ;it can go straight from received to grant if you provided everything already.

Who knows? You might be lucky. I have been just over 4 months now.

I believe that button appears when the CO requests further information, and you click it to confirm to them that you have provided all the information they requested.

This is good to know, I am sure my wife still has a medicare card!

Awww he's cute!

That seems to be the price for a 20ft at the moment - I was quoted £4,300 with packing to Perth I think.
