My sister has just had a baby in oz I can't wait to see my new neice. I know what you mean I so want to be in oz but at least when you get the visa then you know you can go. Best wishes I hope you get a speedy visa. Tanya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Phillips family Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Best of luck with your medicals, hope they went well? Gaz they were bloody awful!!!!! The kids had to take 3 urine samples (my son 4 cos he threw his sample & cup down the toilet)!! They must have all heard me shouting NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Then mine had blood in & has to be sent off!! Then my son who kept being told by my mother-in-law to drink more water, honked up all over me & over the waiting room floor (waiting room was full) & over the sofa!! The staff had to drag the sofa out of the waiting room while Jason ran out to the car & got me a real dodgy red fleece to put on. (I thought I looked pretty fine for Doc but not after that) Changed Gabe back in to school uniform so he was fine! Then the panal doctor called us in & I absolutley stank my trousers were soaked! So we were in there 3 hours in total !! All worried about my sample now...so exhausted off to bed!!! Hope you're still up there in the clouds!!

ThistleandRose Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Thistle Don't panic babe, I was in the exact same position as you but after 48 hrs on referred it went to finalized, you will see hun am positive your will do the same xxx Hi there, thanks so much for the nice message Lynda.. got everything crossed x x At least my OH's police check came back today (separate from mine and without the extra copies we'd ordered but never mind..) so he ran down to our agent and got them uploaded. Last step is surely the hardest.. Huge Congrats to Gaz from us!!!!!!!!! Gaz, make sure you get a big house so we can all crash the party... We'll all be chucked out of the country straight away!!!! Fingers crossed, another day tomorrow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jillabong Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Whats happening with you Rose, cant believe you still haven't heard anything!!!! Our saga continues, now it seems, after calls yesterday and today, that the medicals have been sent to Oz twice, and now the doctor cant sign them off till Sydney sort something out on their system!!! Agent emailed CO, and nothing sorted out yesterday as i think a few wires are crossed somewhere along the line, this is the problem with emails, and not picking up the phone!! have tried to call agent but not answering the phone!!! so grief knows when this is going to be sorted, and until it does nothing is going to happen!!!!! for goodness sake i am getting fed up with this now, especially as peeps that went for meds well after us now have their visa!!!!!!!!!! aaarrrggghhhhhh....... why is nothing straight forward for us!!!!! on a happier note...Many congrats to peeps getting their visas, happy celebrating Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I literally feel like crying when I see visas being granted and still NO news for us!! Well we submitted everything our CO asked for on the 12th Feb she gave us untill the 8th March which was yesterday so God knows what's going on. I asked my agent last week and she said to be patient and CO's work at different speeds etc etc. Well my thinking is to give it this week and on Monday if our agent won't contact them for us, I will have to take the chance and mail the CO myself and see what the hold up is. We only got asked for PCC and P6O's so nothing too complicated. I think she's forgotten us!!!!! I am so pleased to see people moving but this bit has been the worst for me I can tell you!! Anyway I guess I should just be more patient! Hope things get sorted for you hun, what a bloomin pain!! This has certainly given me some grey hairs !! Good luck, lets hope we hear some better news soon xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
