MariaC Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 No not yet they seem to be getting thro them quickly tho. I reckon Thursday may be my lucky day. Tomorrow would be fine tho. it felt like a Xmas morning when I woke up today, the same excited feeling of wandering if you've got what you've been waiting for! because they have been processing the 19 th dec gang this week I've had to start frantically painting the house ready for sale so at least I'm keeping myself busy. Everyday feels like a week. What about you jilly? What r u doing this week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaronspark Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Wow. I was literally just writing 'Nope, not today' and got my grant through! Direct grant YAY! I'm on a train so not quite believing it... but it does have the words 'Congratulations! You have been granted a permanent visa' Yup. Just checked vevo and I'm now a resident! :biglaugh: Congrats Jonny!.....You must be buzzing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithjed Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Hi guys, just wondering with work when you start on a 189 visa is there a requirement for the type of job or number of hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikopol Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Checked with my RAMA - no news on my front though apparently papers were filed by them on the 20th not the 19th as I initially thought. Looks like no one after the 20th has been picked up so far it would seem. Anyway, not to worry, the agent felt a lot of the picking up of the files can be slightly varied across the dates and not first come first served within each 2 week section.

jonny Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Hi guys, just wondering with work when you start on a 189 visa is there a requirement for the type of job or number of hours? No requirement. Heck, you don't even need to have a job once you've been granted the visa Speaking of which, any news for the rest of you? If not, fingers crossed for next week for you.

nikopol Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Speaking of which, any news for the rest of you? If not, fingers crossed for next week for you. Nothing for me anyway - looks like they are getting through the obvious spike of the 19th (day of offers) before moving onto the 20th. Hopefully some time next week I hope. (not that it changes anything for me since I'm already here but I'd rather have the residency out of the way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariaC Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I'm awake early as I've just been woken by my poorly son. Straight on to checking emails of course like u do at 4am! Direct grant for visa! . I cannot tell you the relief I am feeling. This is a fresh start for the whole family. Hoping many others get great news today.

nikopol Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Nice to see things are happening. Congrats Maria. Seems to have been a lot of action on the 189 front up until the 28th of December! I'm still waiting for contact from them so it seems quite random Wait patiently and see is the mantra for the time being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariaC Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Thankyou, I am wishing the rest of the December gang for good news too. Didn't get back to sleep as too many things going round my head and too excited! Get the kids to school today and then start packing ready to put house on the market.

nikopol Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Got mine this am - Woke at 0900 am and no change on the system, but fell asleep, dreamt it was done (even saw the date of 24/02/15 on the dream website) then woke at 10am and checked and it was. Weird! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariaC Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Congratulations nikopol and jilly! It feels great doesn't it? Who says hard work doesn't pay off! What's the next thing on the list for you guys? Aaron- we don't know yet where we are going. Never been to oz but thinking Queensland (sunshine coast or gold coast) or nsw(central coast). Any advice from anyone always welcome. Obviously if hubby gets a job offer before we arrive then that will be a big factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
