Yep, I believe Ken is right. I validated my visa in May and am moving to Perth in September. My visa allows me to enter and leave Australia at will.

Had to reschedule my trip to Mid-May as Qantas couldn't get me on a flight this month and due to work commitments I can't travel beginning of May. Very disappointed.

Goodbye UK!

Fianlly exchanged contracts on my house and have a move date, so on 3rd August I will fly out of the UK for a holiday across the USA for a month before flying from LA to Perth.



Can't wait!

Advice on Passenger Entry Cards

I fly out to Perth on Saturday to make my visa validation trip; I'm staying about 9 days then heading back to the UK.



My question is: should I mark the card as migrating permanently to Australia on this visit, or just as a temporary visitor?



You can see an example of the card here: http://www.evisastoaustralia.com/section06/customs.pdf



Thanks!

SOLD!

Amazingly our house sold within two days of going on the market and, if everything pans out correctly, we'll be leaving the UK in June!



First a holiday across the US and then arrive a month later in Oz, stopping off in Sydney before finally arriving in Perth.



I'm off in 11 days to get my visa validated and then it's sorting everything out in terms of what to sell, what to chuck and what to ship.



Anyone want to buy a car...? :-)

Citizenship/Dual Nationality

Hi,

I got my Spousal visa in August and my wife and I are moving to Perth next year. My question is this; when can I apply for Australian Citizenship, and can I retain my British passport after doing so?

Thanks!

Paul
