The Wait Continues

Its been 8 weeks since i lodged my visa application. Our lives have been put on hold..period. Its difficult as you are not here and not there. It should not be too long now.....i hope!!We are all very restless!!!

English

I need to prove my English capability. Their is the IELTS that has too be taken. The problem is that they have a huge backlog and the bookings a sitting in the new year already. My agent said that i could submit school letters stating that i have been taught in English. I have received that and from the Tech as well. Now its a waiting game again!!! The joys of immigrating!!

The Wait

This is the worst part of this entire process. You dont know if it will be approved or not. I will only put in my resignation once i have confirmation of approval. Then its another 4 weeks notice period. I will then only land in Aus 2 weeks after notice completed.Your entire life is basically on hold. You are neither here or there!!

Medicals

I received great news on the Immigration website this morning. Marco's medicals have been finalised. This means that we are in the last stretch in getting our visa approved. It should hopefully be another week or so.

Soooo lonely

Took the wife and kids to visit her family up in Pretoria yesterday. The house is so quiet its frightening. Usually when i come home in the afternoons i get greeted by the wife and kids,but now i only get the chirps of Tweety bird,the parrot. I have to make my own supper and wash dishes. The laundry will end up at the Laundromat!!! They might be gone for 2 weeks.Its a challenge but I don't know if i am gonna survive!!!
