Visa Granted!!!

[lornznpaul]

We finally got our 176 visa granted yesterday after 18 months!! We still can't quite believe it and things seem very real now! Our medicals were only received in Sydney on Monday so the visa was granted within 24 hours!

 

We've booked flights to validate the visa in September and will spend two weeks staying with friends and having a good look around Adelaide and the place we will be calling home in the not too distant future - nervous but VERY excited!!

 

Good luck to everyone who is awaiting their visas - the feeling when you get that email is well worth the wait!

Congratulations. Your wait was longer than ours.

We are just waiting for a small medical hickup to be sorted (high blood presure) and then our meds can get sent off. The waiting is a nightmare but nearly over now.

Thank you all for your lovely comments! We can't wait for our validation trip in September! The plan is to stay with family friends in the Golden Grove area for a week and have a look around the north, a few trips into the city to activate bank accounts etc and then stay with friends in the south for the last few days and have a look around all the areas and work opportunities. Hubby is a carpenter and I'm currently a reception manager in the UK. We currently feel drawn to the south but that may change when we get there - we're both looking forward to exploring though and getting an idea of an area that will suit us both! Only 6 months and counting....
