Dono Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 If anything is "met" on your checklist, you have a CO. Specialist forwarded letter to our panel doctor today so our medicals should be on their way to the DIAC by Monday.... ooooo things are getting close now Apparently the letter didn't indicate any issues so we should be good to go.

daydreamer88 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 oooh sounds exciting reading where everyone is at with their applications! We are waiting for our police checks (they received them yesterday) and have medicals booked for this Tuesday, although my husband has diabetes so we are anticipating been referred to a specialist - fingers crossed this won't stop us getting our visa. Looks like you will be getting your visa soon Dono! Emma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ack Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Apparently if it says referred it can just mean its gone to the Health operations Centre an doesnt always mean anything negative. Also the other day at our medical the Dr said to us ; youd have to have a major costly illness for them to not grant you a visa based on that alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmaclec Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I still haven't been contacted by a CO yet i checked online and all our docs are met apart from the IELT's which says further checks required ( No idea why!!!!!!). All the docs show as met on the 17th or 24th but nothing since, maybe our CO has took a holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dono Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Hehe Well I think it will only be next week before the grant happens. Our medical stuff will only get there on Thursday and they still need to look at everything colinmaclec - have they requested medicals yet? If you used an agent it sounds like they're not sending you the mails from DIAC... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmaclec Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 No not yet but our agent said that the DIAC have not been in touch yet. We can't do medicals yet anyways as OH is pregnant and due in May but it would be good to have everything else met for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather Law Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Just a quick question. We got our confirmation e-mail last night and it indicated we needed to complete and attach a couple of forms. One, the 80 form, is very long and we have to do a copy each. Do I simply complete them and then scan and upload each page separately or is there an easier way? Thanks all did you upload your form 80? has it been canged to met? i had to send army discharge certs and just wondered how long it took to turn to 'met' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all we're waiting on...and looks like its going to be weeks for them to come back...ahhhhrrrg Although the move is what we have been aiming for for a long time now...dilema is oldest has started GCSEs and if its granted soon then our date for entry is likely to be Feb sometime next year meaning he wont be able to sit his final exams!

jove Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 We lodged our application on the 25th of January. We were requested to submit further information i.e. Form 80 and proofs of work and de facto relationship on the 29th of January. We uploaded those document and this morning(7th of Feburary) they requested the Police certificates and medical xrays etc... I have to say this is moving very quickly.
