aligard Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Hi, hoping for some help(as always!! ) As we are still waiting for our house to sell and may have to validate visa, do we all have to go? I'm the primary applicant but all our names are on the visa. We need to validate by the end of October. thanks x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest6235 Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Hope your house sells soon Aligard. Do you have to give the full term notice like my wife to hand your notice in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a distant memory. With you on that. We had champers on tap in Mauritius in 2009 & 2010 before our daughter came along but wouldn't swap anything now. As we said on our dm's earlier this oz move is for them. Will have to come see you in Mandurah when you're set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest6235 Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Let's hope so, can't get any worse If we'd done things earlier it would have been good to be out there for August/September ready for when they start recruiting. It's hard isn't it going without a job from the point of view the rental we could get could be miles away from where we land a job, good thing is we can move closer to job after 6 months.

Difficult as our sons re school age so it's like the chicken and egg..... Their school and rental or my job?? It's going to be interesting!

<Dan> Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 We had to do the same last year. £5K for 8 days! We flew with Emirates and would highly recommend them even with a 18 month old baby. I (as normal) cocked up the flights so we had a day in Dubai which was worth the cost of a hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 You don't all necessarily have to validate at the same time, but you must all have validated by the 'validate by' date - just makes it easier to do it as a family holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think that's what we will have to do if our house doesn't sell in time. Where did you stay when you were there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
