  1. Hi Nkassan, you need to get in touch with your agent or immigration (PVC team) immediately and talk to them. M
  2. She was probably told that visas will be issued after 1st July - like the rest of us who had 2nd VAC payment request on 12/6/18
  3. It will be interesting to see how many were granted for 2017 - 2018
  4. It's probably a more realistic timeframe for those applying now? At least they'll know. Hopefully . . .
  5. Was wondering if anyone out there knows if you get an acknowledgement/receipt of the 2nd VAC payment? Or do you just wait for the visa? Ta
  6. Pertenhall - really glad there's light at the end of the tunnel! Re estate agent and house selling - you haven't had a lot of luck lately? Perhaps it will all change now! ?
  7. Pertenhall - absolutely gutted for you and your daughter! Can only echo what others have said. Why on earth didn't they tell you earlier?? Can she resubmit with another assurer?
  8. Thanks, Alan - but I have an Aus bank account. Just wondering best way to arrange bank cheque from U.K. Thinking of transferring to daughters who live there and they can get cheque and send it. (or disappear to Bali . . )
  9. Thanks. No it doesn't feel real. Partner at work! Daughters asleep (in Oz)! So no-one to scream and get giddy with! Apart from all of you!! BTW I was the first to suggest 'mindfulness' - so don't go giving Ant 111 all the credit!!!? ? Pom- tiddly om - Pom Pom!
  10. Thanks - was beginning to think that might be an idea - but didn't know if 'they' would accept cheque from another account. thanks again
  11. Hi - a question about payment of 2nd Vac: We are in the U.K. but have the money in an Australian bank. I thought we'd be able to pay by bank transfer. Can we get Oz bank to issue a bank cheque and give to daughters ( with ID) to send off? Has anyone been in this situation?
  12. Been thinking about you and AoS situation. Really hope you hear soon to get the ball rolling!
  13. Thank-you Kaths56! And good luck to all of you, too! I should have said - 'Has anyone ever NOT received a visa after 2nd payment request???????????'
  14. Hi Mike and Ant, Congrats! Got our 2nd request, too! Couldn't believe it! Hands shaking! After 1st July. Has anyone ever NOT received visa after this stage.
  15. They didn't in mine. But I sent a cheeky email thanking them and asking if I'd have to wait until ne FY. No answer We just have to wait. I'm trying 'Mindfulness"???
  16. Hi Tidang, Yes, I got that email 5 weeks ago. Nobody knows how long it will take, or the criteria for making decisions. We just have to wait
  17. Thanks, Allan C and Fisher for your replies. Still a tad confused - but I'll get there As Denzel Washington said in 'Philadelphia', "Explain this to me like I'm a two year old"
  18. Hi - re pensions. i believe all pensions - state or occupational - have to be taxed in Australia? Any comments? Advice? Does it take ages to arrange, etc.?
  19. I completely agree. 'It is what it is' However, as most people do not have close friends, neighbours or family in the same situation - it's good to be able to share ones frustrations with others in the same boat! But keep it in perspective - look at the rest of the world!!
  20. Really, really feel for you!! Does MP have a 'surgery' like they do in the UK? Also phone centrelink again - make a nuisance of herself. Somerimes I think that If I had known about all the waiting, frustrations, living in limbo, etc. - would I have embarked on this journey in the first place? Good luck ?
