Hi again Janni (bloody hell, do you seem to spend all day on this site too???) anyhoo we didn't frontload but by Feb i was getting really impatient so booked meds before we got our co. then in March we had them done, i went to the doctors to help the (useless!) receptionist send them by courier, when i got home i had a message from our agent telling us we had our co and the meds needed to be sent...go timing eh? this was on 7th march but my sons meds went on 17th i think (useless!) receptionist forgot to include his! so it was about 4 weeks from them getting these that our VISAS WERE GRANTED!!I do think front loading cuts a few weeks off the time, so you should go for it. is it your hubby with trade or you? Mine is a chippy but i think he's got plans on building swimming pools (he's lost it with all the excitement!) Adelaide looks beautiful and the properties are soooo cheap, we can't wait to get out of England and get our boys some real good quality weather in a lovely country. i went to Australia for 6 months when i was 17 and have been desperate to get back out there ever since it is such an amazing country and i'm sure my family will love it as much as i did...fingers crossed! take care, and more questions fire away. dip x
