Thank you Ali

Thank you David, very helpful

My goodness, so the 24 months we were expecting is highly unlikely.......

wow, that looks like an amazing trip, how long are you allowing for it?

Hello, Is the 1550 places an allocation for just WA? How do you find out how many places are in the queue, that is a seriously low figure!!!

Hi, I have recently found out by accident that my travel insurance only covers me for a stay of 31 days at a time after visiting Perth for three months whoops!! i have managed to find a company who covers long stay, but, they are saying i need to register with Medicare?? Has anyone else had to do this and if so how? Any advice please. Thank you Jannette

Hello Ray, I imagine you are very busy at the moment with your pending move! I am preparing everything in order to start my application form and have a couple of questions please 1 Is there any advantage to putting my daughters address in Perth down on the form to receive correspondence? 2 On the form there is a question have you previously been to Australia, do you just enter the last time you went? or as we have visited several times do i have to list each visit? 3 When you paid for the visa with the application did you use a card or transfer the money? Thank you Ray

Thank you Odies, there are going to be heaps of questions, how have you found it so far in Oz?

Hi Ray,? Several questions please! You mention Form 80, on the paperwork i have there is no mention of completing and attaching form 80 with the application? Did you apply for the Contributory Parent 143? How long after you were allocated a Case Officer did it take for your visa to come through? Finally how excited are you to be moving in October, its so close now!

Thank you, yes I have looked through and it all seems fairly straightforward, I did wonder if by using an agent, the process would be quicker than if I did it myself? I suppose there is no way of knowing that though?

Hello, we are now ready to start our visa application for a contributing parent visa, which is a rather large amount of money! My question to anyone is - what advantage is there for using an agent to assist with the visa application? I have been in contact with Go Matilda but am unsure as to the benefit ?? Any advice gratefully received - thank you

Its a contributory parent visa, from information received now its look like a new build is my only option

Thank you Ray, I am unsure as to what you mean by being "PR" On a separate note how long did your visa take?

Thank you

Hello, I wonder if anyone can assist please. I am struggling to locate any information on whether you can purchase property in WA while you are waiting for a parent visa. Any information would be helpful - thank you
