Guest Mummy3 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Compiling info for TRA. Like doing exam coursework! Which one of you is doing that? Hubby did his and there were mountains of papers he had to write regarding what he has done in the past and does now. Lots and lots of writing! :arghh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mummy3 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Our thing which is holding up our visa is consent from my Ex to take our 3 children to Oz. We have a case officer now and we have a buyer for our house, so fingers crossed, not much longer nowTania X Don't know the full story, but that must be hard on him. I don't think either myself nor my hubby would consent to either of us taking the kids to live in another country. Obviously, if he isn't really in their lives, that's probably another matter.

I don't think either myself nor my hubby would consent to either of us taking the kids to live in another country. Obviously, if he isn't really in their lives, that's probably another matter. My Ex has no contact with any of his 3 children, he doesn't even pay anything towards them. He hasn't seen my little girl since she was 2 months old and she is 4 now. As you say it must be hard for parents who play an active part in their childrens lives, but for me this has never been the case Tania X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots and lots of writing! :arghh: We do it together (ahhh!) - tom speaks & I type! Has resulted in a few grumpy nights trying to put into words / explain how he does things & what tools etc! He is a panel beater / paint sprayer. Still lots to go! :goofy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selah Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Going for the sympathy vote, here. Applied August 2007 and now 15 months down the road still frozen with the other 5000 applicants involved in the capital investment issue. Particularly cross as just had to sign a work contract until August 2009 and our meds (which our CO requested in May even though the applications were frozen) will expire in May 2009. Will be fighting for an extension if this thing ever gets sorted! Liz, Andrew and another 3 little angels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
