PierreCindyS Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Hallo everyone. We are newbies from Middelburg moving to Perth WA. My husband and I have been married for 12 years and we are blessed with 3 beautiful boys. My husband has accepted a wonderful job offer in Perth and we are hoping to relocate within the next few months. We have only started the process for applying for a 457 Visa, but we are fortunate to have wonderful people assisting us.The reallity of it all is setting in now and we are both feeling a bit nervous and anxious, but excited at the same time.Luckily we stumbled upon this wonderful website with fellow South Africans going through the same thing.Hoping that all will work out as planned Cindy and Pierre Scholtz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
