  1. Could we enter Auz on a 600 visitor visa and be granted a 173 parent visa on shore ? anyone any idea ?
  2. It would be interesting to know how many are still in the queue before us so as to have a wild guess at when the call will probably come. % of people dropping out due to change of plans, Poor health and folk unfortunately no longer with us must be higher than usual.
  3. On the list of places to go too when visa finally gets granted. did notice a few dodgy characters sat at the waterfront drinking last time we was there which we hadn't noticed before !
  4. Not lived in Mandurah but visited many times and thought the place was really nice. although not been there late at night clubbing so not sure what the evenings are like
  5. Many thanks really appreciate that
  6. Help !! My wife had 4 months left on her visitor visa , changed passport last week and advised Immigration via 929 form. she may have too urgently travel to aus , will the visitor visa be on the new passport ? Can you apply for a 651 if the old one has not yet expired ? many thanks for any help am desperate here !
  7. Will a 173 visa be granted if in Auz on a 600 ? appreciate any advice .
  8. Thanks Alan Wow been on the list just over 3 years and probably another 5 to go ! expected further delays but seeing it in writing is painful
  9. Thank you for the information. wish we had plumped for 143 but was expecting waiting list to be around 2 years so wanted xtra time. i imagine it could be around 4 years or so now.
  10. Think we will be renting or staying with my daughter until 143 then. thank you for the info much appreciated
  11. Thanks Andrew I will be at an age to transfer any pensions I have . I will drop you a mail over the next couple of days if that’s ok ?
  12. Many thanks, I think the government pension will just be paid into a Uk account when I reach that grand old age . The company / private pensions will need a bit of sorting am sure. i was also unaware that there were additional costs involved purchasing a house on a 173 visa - would anybody know what the % is ?
  13. Thanks for the tips guys , am out there for Xmas so will look into it and will have a look into Vista financial. much appreciated:)
  14. Still a way to go for us yet but need to start thinking about tax and pensions I guess - gulp ! Is it better to just leave any pensions you have until retirement age and then take them or transfer across when you emigrate ? Are there companies that advise on all financial implications with a reasonable cost as this emigration malarkey is quite expensive:) thanks in advance folks
  15. Many thanks bear 2015 - gives us some additional time should we need it .
  16. Congrats Jessyjj anybody know if you can go on hols to activate 173 visa and do you have a year to activate it ? Am still a while away but need to start formulating plans
  17. Think the 173 will be a bit smoother due to no AOS ? i am hoping 42 months all together but it really is anyone’s guess .
  18. I was thinking along the lines of getting in touch with another 6/7 months on top to receive the visa
  19. Just asking applied Oct 2017 so expecting around 15/18 months yet . Think I read somewhere that you have six months after being granted the visa to activate it! PS not sure how to update timeline
  20. Once 173 is granted is there a time limit on when you have to activate it ? thank you in advance
  21. Although I am not yet a year in the waiting room ,reading some of the previous posts there is going to be a lot of uncertainty, worry , heartache , expectation , delay s and a lot of patience required . We have 3 Aussie grandkids of which two I haven’t met yet ( although this will change soon ). I guess the golden rule is switch off as best as possible , sit back and allow what happens , when it happens to take its own course as we cannot change nor affect the outcome. Lets hope for some positive news in the end of September update . Wheres the Jack Daniels ? good luck all ?
  22. Congrats to all the folk receiving good news . registered 173 ( doh) Oct 2017 so gonna be a long wait. Perth bound eventually.
