Sunseeker20 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Feeling blue today. New year started, job come to an end and getting ready to put house on market but....still no visa. Doesn’t look like there have been any grants for weeks now - ? Anyway in an attempt to retain my sense of humour I thought I’d share a photo of the lovely mug I got given for Christmas. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pneill Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Same so fed up looking at my immi account 20 million times a day, everytime I see an email I just get that wee bit excited to be totally kicked by the teeth with an email from beauty bay, rac or whatever. Started unsubscribing from everything so the only email I get is from the visa lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We applied May 2019, medicals and police checks, loads of documents etc.......uploaded, married 17 years, kids x 3, all dual citizens (UK/Aussie) No RFI , not a word.

mppc Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Well guys today was the day I received my email to leave Australia so that they can process my grant. I almost don't believe it but am so utterly relieved. 50 weeks of one of the most stressful times of my life. I think I need to let it sink in as I think I'm a little shell shocked lol I was down to the wire, heading back to the UK on holiday on the 14th then back to kick start my new life properly this time. Thank you so much for all the help and advice from everyone it really helped out in the dark times. 7 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats @mppc!! Such great news - happy new year to YOU! @Pneill I'm not sure if it was you or someone else who suggested the spreadsheet be put into google sheets - but this is a great idea (no more downloading/uploading/searching for latest and greatest doc etc!!!) and you can set up the edit permissions to just a few? If not, could you upload the one you adjusted with MPCC's grant so we can see the newest file? Thanks ever so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pneill Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 @Ayrlogan yeah I will upload it, it wasnt me that suggested Google I wouldnt know how to do that. Sorry if u can do it though would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
