    Well, I got the golden email a few hours ago asking me when I was planning to leave the country so my visa could be granted. Funny how the world works sometimes....Thanks one and all for your kindness and support. Back on the plane tomorrow night so I can see my Dad but great news that when I return I'll have that precious visa allocated to me;) Keep positive one and all. Good news is just around the corner.

    Keep staying positive one and all and CONGRATS to those that have received great news! I've got to head back to the UK as my Dad is seriously ill so accruing the air miles in 2019! Really hope my grant can be approved whilst I am away from Oz. Fingers crossed for all still waiting.

    Yes, good luck peeps! It's got sadly very quiet on the approval front but I'm hopeful that now Australia Bank Holiday weekend is over, everyone will get back to work! Probably wishful thinking but you never know. Cannot believe that this thread has been viewed over 30,000. That's so impressive!

    Have you considered taking a new role in visa advisory services? You are SERIOUSLY super human with your knowledge! Bravo!

    ha ha! I wish. I came out to Oz on a tourist visa, 2 weeks ago. Happy to be out here but by gosh, it's so bloody hot today! My fingers and toes are crossed for everyone! xx

    Hi All, Just wanted to say a big thank you to you all for your help and guidance. We arrived into Melbourne yesterday and the flight and tourist visa went without a glitch. Waiting for the Partner visa to come through over here in the sunshine is already making life easier! Massive luck to you all and a very happy new year! Gems x

    Hi All, me again! We haven't had approval yet but are going to bite the bullet and fly out early January. Just a quick question, as I don't have my Partner Visa I'll apply for a Tourist / Family visa (can't remember the exact name). My question is, when I get to Border Control will they be OK if I only have a single ticket or do I need to show a return flight? Appreciate your wise advice. Thanks, Gems x

    Thanks Alison for this. We are relocating to Castlemaine in the coming months and really looking forward to it. So reassuring to hear other people's happy experiences! Gems

    Got my IMMI s56 Request for More Information last Wednesday which is great news. I need to upload police checks and also my hubbie has to create his own account (like many others have commented already). I thought this was already superseded in my application as I hand completed the 40SP form and uploaded. Alas, I'll need to type it all up again.... Fingers and toes are crossed for those yet to still hear anything.....

    AMAZING! Well done Jon. So thrilled for you. Thanks for all your help and fantastic news! Gems

    AMAZING! Thank you so so much for the guidance. This thread has been 100x more helpful than any agent or helpline that I've called! Fingers crossed for everyone that good news arrives soon. Gems

    Hi All, Great to hear such happy news and my fingers are crossed for all the others waiting (particularly those that applied in the Spring). Just wanted to pick your clever brains. My husband has permanent leave to remain in the UK. However, I am wondering whether we need to sort him out with a different UK visa before we leave so if our Aussie dreams don't work out, we've got a plan B. Does anyone have any clever thoughts? Really appreciate any advice. Thanks, Gems x

    So happy to find this website and thread. Late evening mad searches for other people who are in the same family position as us..... I'm British, husband is Aussie - together for 10 years, married for 7 and 2 kids (sounds like the usual format) and currently living in the UK. Applied in June and done the medical (wrongly got very excited that are application was being expedited as it was asked for immediately) and had zero communication since. Happy to hear that I can still head over to Australia on a tourist visa with the family (my kids and hubbie all have Aussie visas) and I just won't be able to work as we want to enrol our daughter into school in February. I thought that I may get stuck here in the UK on my own! Our best friends applied last July and got approved in September so frustrated like all of you that 2018 is the year for slooow progress. Good luck to everyone else and hope to hear good news from you all soon!
