TereMel Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Welcome Francois,All of the best with your Aus plans, and especially this visa application process.Whatever Internet access you have at home or at work will get used overtime from now on . One of the best ways to take on this migration-job-thingy is to inform yourself to the maximum. Visit sites and read up on everything, then hope for a speedy, smooth ride.Isn't it amazing what pushes some people over the limits and into this decision. Ours was also one of those unexpected things. My man was working (on something probably very important or interesting) and we had one of the first load shedding power cuts, and his UPS failed, and he came and told me that that was it - let's move to Aus.Cheers,TereMel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
