We are heading to Gold Coast, what about you? We will be booking accommodation and flights soon . I wish we had front loaded ours now so we knew we had done everything! We we are heading to Melbourne ! I really want to get booking flights and some short term accommodation but the wait continues! I know once I get that visa I will be in a mad rush to sort all the last bits out! X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarahb1986 10 Posted September 1, 2015 Morning everyone, just wondering if any one had any more updates on how they are getting on? i put our applications in for the police certs on the 21st August, still not had them through yet, although it did say 10 working days, being impatient! We have until the 15th September to attach these to our visa, but we are flying to NYC tomorrow until Monday so really wanted them back before then so I could put my mind at rest!

Smithjed 10 Posted September 1, 2015 I don't think a drink driving offense will matter?! Mine is taking ages too! They requested payslips and now after reading others' posts I'm worried I haven't sent tax slips etc! Just want it granted IELTS 30/4/15, EOI 18/5/15:tongue: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This offence will definitely not stand in your way as long as the incident didn't involve somebody getting injured. Don't worry.

Rose11 10 Posted September 1, 2015 I lodged 30th June, had email from CO last thurs requesting permission from my sons father. He hasn't seen him in over 14 years so have explained this and also stated he has no parental responsibility by law, so I'm hoping that's enough. Waiting to hear back hopefully this week, if I don't I'll be calling to speak to someone. I also had a DD offence from 15 years ago :embarrassed: and came up on police check as no live trace, was clearly no problem as CO didn't mention anything about it.

WayneA 10 Posted September 3, 2015 Hi All has anyone got the grant recently? I found out that my points calculation was incorrect so they had to re-assess the visa at 60 points and not 70. Hopefully they don't have to start from the beginning. Its been more than a week since I replied to them to say that they can change points to 60 and I still haven't heard anything. I have been watching my emails very closely but nothing yet. :huh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
