Sadge Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hi Sadge You are just a day after my lodgement, don't know about you but I've just about had enough of waiting for IMMI to contact us. My patience is just about worn out, I like to be organised and have stuff completed in plenty of time, but this is all doing my head in. Still i'm so busy sorting, sifting and selling in readiness for our move in June that I suppose time will get a move on. are you ready to move to Oz or got a house to sell? When do you aim to be in oZ? Happy to keep in touch. Julie I have quite a lot to sort out first, including a house sale. I'm not brave enough or in a position to sell up until I've got that visa in my hot little hand. After that though - it'll be all systems go! There don't seem to be many of us here heading to Victoria, although as a bit of a latecomer to the forum perhaps I haven't really cottoned on to where folks are headed.

Hi Sadge not that many going to Victoria, probably the silly climate, four seasons in a day! Still it's warmer than the UK and our family is there! It's taken us a while to sell our property as it is also a business, so we are glad to be off, if we don't get our visa then we intend to split our time between UK and Oz. Either way will be glad to get on with the move. Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSteel Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 emedical site now says completed and sent to Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP). I'm guessing anything seriously wrong the health centre here in UK would have been in touch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Hi Julie, I have watched your posts for a while as my parents lodged on the same day as you....we are very over waiting, and would love to get some things completed so we can be ready for processing like you! I have emailed Immi, and they advise that they are not giving out any requests for June 2014 applicants yet. We'll try again in a couple of weeks..... The wait continues :err: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An intolerable situation, I really feel for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSteel Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 After seeing my medical results had been sent to DIPD, I asked the medical centre where we were tested for my results..................... A Grade no issues. As expected, but it's a great stress reliever to see it in the report!! Happy weekend everyone :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An intolerable situation, I really feel for you. I don't think emailing case officer will help as the AOS bond is dealt with by centrelink and you have to wait for centrelink to give you all the info to lodge bond at the bank.

Maisie is now at 2 years since lodgement and still some way to go before getting her visa, whereas everybody else has been under the 2-year mark to the grant of visa. If it were me, I would email as she does at least have a Case Officer who can presumably chase it up if Centrelink have messed up somewhere. What do you think?

AlanSteel Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I saw something on the site yesterday regarding the addition payment required when paying the AOS, is it $300 or £200 please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catlady2014 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I saw something on the site yesterday regarding the addition payment required when paying the AOS, is it $300 or £200 please? Somebody mentioned $300 but somebody else then said that it was $200. I think they both then agreed on $200. I can't find the posts now but I'm certain it was $200.

HarrisL16 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Hi All,We've just had the most lovely email............... Visa Grant :ssign19: That was much quicker than I imagined. Now come on Immi have a look at how my Visa was processed.... Form 80 completed with original application. Early Med and Poloice Check requests. Early contact for AOS. CO to grant 4 days. There has to be a future in this for all the CPV's Thanks to all my fellow sufferers on the forum for helping make this a more than just bearable process. Good Luck to the 2014ers awaiting your turn. To all the 15ers time really does fly, it'll be here before you know it. even if it doesn't feel like it. Thats it, I'm up off my seat and leaving the waiting room. Shuffle along everyone, one seat closer. Cheers Phil Congratulations ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
