That's OK, I appreciate the response! We've kinda just dared to take the risk and hope it's all OK. We've booked our flights for the 27th April to land there 28th April (2 days before the deadline). Fingers crossed it all goes well then!
It's comforting to hear someone's in the (kind of) same...
Oh shoot, I meant to say January. :-[ We did my partner's medical in March and our deadline has been set to the end of April so I'm assuming they must've extended by a month (I guess that's what we get for trying to tackle things early!).
I'm wondering about what the time frame is from when...
Hi guys!
Congratulations to all the June 2014 applicants that have finally completed. It must be a huge relief. :-)
I have a question regarding the COPR. My partner and I are applying for his visa through the Sydney office.
On the 22nd of July we received the COPR paperwork that we needed to...
It's really awesome to see moving ideas (with links to moving services). It's actually quite helpful since my partner and I are trying to plan how we'll be moving; it's really quite hard trying to plan it all. We're trying to figure out if it's worth sending our stuff over via seafright or...
My SA was finally approved the other day! Such an exciting step. Onward to Sydney now and seeing how long that process takes. ;D
Congratulations to all the other applicants that just had theirs approved recently too!
Yikes, so I have to pretty much wait to hear back in the next few months (55 days and increasing) to know whether or not they actually received it. Australia Post doesn't seem to have a way of tracking internationally, which is strange because they gave me a tracking number that doesn't work...
That's disappointing to hear that age gaps are a factor. I hope it works out well for you and your husband, especially with a baby on the way.
An 8 year gap seems to be pretty average here in Australia, at least so I found with the people I've met.
I highly doubt an age difference would matter as long as you can prove that you have a genuine lasting relationship. My partner is 8 years older than I am but it doesn't mean we love each other any less or our relationship is any less genuine than it would be if we have a smaller age gap.
I...
Thanks for creating this thread!
How do you know when the CPC-M visa office has received your application? Do they notify you when the receive it or only when they start processing it? I sent mine out about a week and a half ago.
Hi guys!
I just wanted to say it's nice and encouraging to see everyone's posts about their progress.
I just sent my outland application to Mississauga from Brisbane last week so it probably won't make it there for another week. I keep checking the processing times and that sponsor...
