176 lodged May 2011 Gang


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I'm now a proud owner of a 176 label in my passport. I went and got it in London this morning, apparently it's needed if you want to double your baggage allowance?

 

Have a nice w'end

Is it really gold?

That's good you can go and get it, think I'd do the same rather than post the passports.

Hi Guys,

 

After an up and down few weeks we got word at 2am this morning that WE GOT OUR VISA :jiggy:.

We loaded my missing police check on last night and emailed agent to ask her to contact the co just to let him know all was now done.

Hi,

Yeah it's kinda red and gold! I only had to wait about 15 minutes in and out, plus I work in London so it was easy!

Good luck

Hi, can I just ask what you would roughly get in your 700 cubic ft container as trying to decide what to take to make it most cost effective.

 

Thanks

 

Sorry for t late response. You don't get v much in 700 cubic feet. We hav realised aft a few quotes that it's looking like we r goin t have t leave quite a bit behind like bikes and our table. We hav also been on eBay.au an compared prices v's shipping. We r desperately Tryin t get into a 750 cubic feet shared container. Quote now comin in at £3000. This Inc our ins and AQIS certificate. I'm v happy wi pickfords so far.

 

Hope this helps anyone. Wil keep updating to help.

Sounds like you are having a nightmare with medicals too! Have you heard anything yet? Hope you get it sorted soon.

 

There's still no change online for our boys meds. It's driving me mad that they had them on 19th April, I've been told twice they are clear yet they don't show as finalised still! According to our online status it's the only thing they are waiting for, yet they have them (unless they are lost).

 

It's so stressful waiting! I've asked my agent to call them but don't know if he has :-(

 

Hey honey&timmy!!

Still no news :( gutted for u guys! Surely ur not far now Hun. Wish I cld help in anyway. Try an hav a gd wkend I know it's tough waiting! Big hugs Linsxxx

Hi Honeyandtimmy,

 

yeah we have been through it a little, it would be interesting to know which clinic you used we have used Maidenhead.

 

We contacted our agent in the end as the clinic would not believe that there was an issue, he got us the proof in the end if you need to know how then private msg me.

 

We will get there I am sure, we will meet you on the beech when we are both there.

 

thanks

Hi Anne, glad your agent got the proof in the end! We had 3 meds done at Maidenhead and they were all finalised no probs. The other two were done in Knightsbridge but don't think the clinic have done anything wrong as I know DIAC had them as they were referred for weeks then we got a vague email where even my agent wasn't 100% sure if they passed but since had a forwarded email from agent that he got from DIAC that said they had cleared. On document list they all say 'met' just not on the other page. They said it would take a few days to merge them to our case (they were paper meds) but that was about 11 days ago now!

 

Oh well, nothing I can do but wait. Good luck for getting your visa soon, I'm sure it won't be much longer for you now, and yes, see you on the beach when we eventually get there! Are you going to Perth too? :-) x

Hi Linsey, thanks for the support, fingers crossed it won't be too long now. I'd be lying if I said it wasn't driving me slightly mad all this waiting but trying to keep busy. Off out on a girls night out tomorrow night, so looking forward to that. I don't think I've been out for years!!

 

Great to hear how you are doing and about shipping etc. I'm making notes! Have a great weekend xx

Not been thro this thread for a while but we got our CO 3 weeks after lodging on 14.05.11. We have Catherine Braithwait team 4 she always emails us back which is good.

 

Police checks already uploaded. Meds done 25.07.11 so now waiting for our visa!

 

How long have people had to wait from having the meds to getting the visa? Do you get an email or just need to keep checking?

 

House is up for sale to hoping the visa and sale tie in nicely.

Hi Linsey, no news this morning as I can't even log in on DIAC! I resisted checking in the night too. Would I have an email if we got our visa?
