I'm guessing by what happened to you that the Police Check is only valid for 6 months: bit of a bugger, really, but it only took 2 days to process without paying the extra (we're in the same town as the office that issues the police checks, so that's OK).

We're hoping to live near Brisbane, what about you?
hey d2008, yeah 6 months & the case officer is all on-line providing you go for an online application, if not then paper which takes a zillion years apparently! They are only there really to collect all the decision maker's info and pass it on to them.

Snap we too have chosen Brissie, east coast - the suburb of Thornlands or Alexandra Hills to be precise . I assume you've done heaps of research on Brisbane like us?
