izzystypes Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Ya we were also very pleasantly surprised. Website is a Dutch one called BudgetAir.We only have one 45 minute stop over in Sydney then straight to Gold Coast Airport in Coolangata. Ours are booked for 24 Jan, land in Gold Coast (after the Sydney stop over) at 18:45 on 25th. And the best part is that it is with Quantas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaB Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Going to check NOW for tickets. We also want to go in Jan, but probably to Brisbane. Would love to be on the Gold Coast - lucky fish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaws Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 So, I submitted all my outstanding documentation as requested by the CO (PCC's and Medicals) a week ago, and checked in with my agent today, and this is what she had to say;"No news as yet I’m afraid, the case officers have been rather quiet on all applications in the final stages of the process. We received the visa grant notice today for an application where the police clearances and all requested information was submitted a month ago. It’s a waiting game for now."Is it just me, or is everyone else having the same experience w.r.t. waiting times after all documentation submitted? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPanda Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Do you think they might be swamped a bit? I heard the RSA emigrant numbers have surged this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Move2Aus Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Also heard that the applications have increased by 7 fold this year. Medicals are done, we submitted the form 80 yesterday and finalised. The waiting game begins @Peanuts - hang in there! Holding thumbs it's soon!!@Izzystypes - awesome news! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassyninja Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Our agent saod there's been a merge thats caused delays and explains VPOs now. He said it would probably take about a month from final documentation. Hoping its sooner though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanTonderFam Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Thank you All for the helpful information.It is good to know some prices on tickets.Just a quick question please, should I buy tickets for us and our Visas are not approved will they refund you or does anyone know how it works?Also how do you decide where to go and if you will find employment there? Can you look for employment from this side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
