Well, Dec is a good sign. But with you and Forlorn79 still waiting for a CO, Nov is still incomplete.

i am not sure why they do this, but don't worry the only thing we can do is wait for it, CO will contact you if they need more details. If you don't hear from them for a long time then send a PLE to DIAC they will reply back to you within 3 days.
The already requested updated cv and migratiin statement and then said they are ok... But since then i am waiting

Hi everyone!

Just thought i'd update on our 'progress' such as it is. We had our medicals on 21st April and all seem to have gone through except my eldest daughter's (we knew her's would be tricky as she has had alot of medical issues, most of which are resolved). The dr who did the meds requested more detailed letters from her consultants - which took a LONG time and a LOT of patient begging to get! But at last her medicals were submitted today and are coming up as 'received' on the system.

Its all very stressful. the other documents such as pcc and proof of employment have gone in too so its just a waiting game now. Curiously, my medicals are finalised like the rest of the family's ( bar my daughter) but bside the x-ray and blood tests etc it states 'referred'. The clinic where the meds were carried out think this is an administrative error as it all looks ok on their system.

Sorry its not better news but it is what it is. Hopefully we'll get a grant soon (fingers crossed). Its been a long road to get this far.

Well done and congrats to those who've got cos and grants since I last checked in - and I was so sad to read the news about leptokurtic. Hopefully he'll find another way and other , better opportunities.

Good luck to everyone who's still in the waiting room alongside me. Its getting a bit cramped in here!

Hi JBY!

This waiting game is EXCRUCIATING but at least we're in the waiting room. Still alot of people queuing to get in!

And may I take this opportunity (which comes but once a year!) to say to all those waiting for news: MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU!

cheesy i know, but couldn't resist

I felt really restless a few weeks back but these days I'm actually OK. I think that if it's the right thing (immigration to Australia), it will happen, and it will happen with the best timing. Hope I can stay calm like this! I also hope that next week is going to be your week Forlorn79
