Thankyou!

 

Yea, just two weeks to get WA SS. It's still sinking in!

 

Now, wondering what the time frame is for getting a CO and therefore needing to get meds, etc done?

I reckon you should get one in the next 2 weeks at the most. WA are reaaly quick at sending 1100 to DIAC.

 

I know that we are not an old applicant but we got CO yesterday and only lodged on the 13th.

Hi Sun lovers,

 

That's the trouble with having older kids and the lengthy processing times.

Fortunately, my three are as keen as ever, if not more so! Just hope it stays that way until/after we're there!

We've told them they'd be daft not to come with us and get their citizenship, then they can please themselves. At least that way, they have the choice of where they want to live.

That's what i am saying to mine get their ciizenship and at least in life they will have a choice, i think i'm winning, they just make me feel guilty but i know i'm doing it for the right resons. they are lucky they have family and we have been so many times they have made friends already.

I have decided to do a traffic light system to make it easier to see how our applications are progressing. would be great if we can all get more Cat 5 who are now Cat 3 to post their timelines on this thread to help us all see the progress.

Bump!

 

Plus, I'm sure there must be more people moving from cat 5 to cat 3 due to WA's updated smp.

 

My agent got 6 other clients moving from Cat 5 to 3......

Thanks Sun Lover,

 

Fingers crossed it will pick up momentum now ... have you thought in 2/3 weeks our D Day will be upon us ... how you getting on with your police checks now?

It will be great to actually have the visa in the hand then it's real, and the planning can start.

We would not be able to actually go until late next year anyway son doin GCSE's and got loads to sort out. when i think about it my head spins.

Police checks sent off friday, but our son's passport runs out in Nov, got med booked for this Thurs, don't know if he will have to wait for new passport to arrive B4 he has his meds, because they ask for passport number, going to email co later and see what he say's. Have they ask for more info regarding employment from you they have from us so getting all the paper work together. not a problem just wondered do they ask eveyone. :cool:

Hi Sun,

 

We have not been asked for any more information as of yet.

Our eldest daughter finished school this year so her GCSE's are finished our 2nd doesnt start for another year or 2 (school that is!)

We sent off our police checks on Thursday. and as you know we have our meds day after you.

 

Re the passport when I renewed my eldest passport it was same passport number.

Hey guys - Looks like I just go a CO! Was checking the progress of my application, and what do I see - Most documents have been met and I've been asked to provide work references,Medicals,PCC,Form 80. It also says that an email has been sent, but since my agent is out of town, I'm going to have to wait for a couple days..

 

But yeah looks like DIAC are processing apps real quick- CO exactly a week after WA SS was approved :)
