Our Essential Skills, Partner, and Student visas were all approved yesterday!!! Good for 5 years!!!
It's been a fourteen year process, all told - actively so for the last two years. We're planning to fly back in just a couple of weeks, once our container is all packed. We have a holiday home reserved for the first month, and will be looking for rentals while waiting for our STUFF. Hopefully we will luck into something pet-friendly so we can FINALLY have cats again!
Thank you everyone for your support and stories!
