Congratulations to all those who've had their visas through this week! There's definitely a run on approvals at the moment as my husband just got the email that his 100 has been approved too! We can book our April flights now, phew Sending so many good wishes to all those still waiting, and going through tough times at the moment.

Hello all, I've been lurking on the forum for a while and thought I'd add our details to the mix! This thread has been so helpful in keeping the panic at bay (although frustrating to see so many others in limbo too). I'm the sponsor, husband is a British citizen. Together 8 years, married for 4, one child. We applied 9 July 2018, husband did the medical shortly after. We didn't front-load his police check although I did front-load my UK one. I didn't do an Australian police check at this point as I've lived in the UK over 10 years. Got a RFI on 22/11/18 for husband's police check which we uploaded early December. Got an email shortly after saying we had a CO and are currently at 'further assessment' stage. Nothing else to date... until I just logged on this morning to check these dates and on my application it now says 'approved' next to my name. The application status still says 'submitted' but I'm sure the 'approved' bit wasn't there before... I think someone on the forum earlier in the month had this too? So fingers crossed it's a sign of progress as we're planning on moving in April!
