Migrating with medical pension from Holland 248Gill, thank you for you detailed advice. Please let me know if I understood what you said, summarizing: 1. Foreign medical pension income is of no influence on the buttessment of migration...
Hi, Welcome to the madhouse!! There have been a couple of others on here going for the interdependency, but not many - don't know of anyone at present. As far as I know its not much slower than a de facto visa - if you have loads of evidence, and front-load it - that means sending the meds and police check in with the application. Do the medical now, and then you can get it all sent in together - just tell the doctor that you are going for a partner visa, and are frontloading it, and so you don't have a case officer-file number etc. Make sure it gets sent to the High Commission in London, not to Australia (which is where they send the skills ones!). As for the Stat Decs - get the Aussie ones done on Form 888 (available on the DIMA website) and get them witnessed by any of the people that can witness under Aussie law - gives you loads more options than in the UK! Bank managers etc are OK as its Aussie law that counts in this, not UK. Remember that Aussie ones will need cert copies of pbuttport-birth cert or something with them to prove idenbreasty.
Copies - the only ones that need to be certified are the ones specified by DIMA, all the bank statements, bills etc can just be photocopied.
Should be OK evidence-wise as you've obviously got loads of evidence and been together plenty long enough. You may need to get a letter from your doctor re the gall bladder op, but it shouldn't cause a problems if you've got over it with no hitches.
As for getting an agent - almost certainly not necessary as it sounds like a straightforward application.... and what you don't know, someone on here can probably tell you :)
Good luck
