I applied for a student visa at the Australian Embassy on the 11th of May. On the 16th of May, the visa officer called us and asked us to schedule a health check appointment at the American Hospital. By that time, we had already booked an appointment at the hospital because we had heard that the check-up division was very busy and that it was difficult to get an appointment within 15 days. So, on the morning of the 26th of May, we went to the hospital, had a chest x-ray, and underwent other tests. On the 3rd of June, they called me back to the hospital for another x-ray because the first one wasn’t very clear. The next day, I went to the hospital for the second time. Thanks to recent developments, medical results are now sent to the embassy online, which saves a lot of time.

Unfortunately, maybe due to my being a doubting Thomas or because I was very excited, things tend to go very slowly and sometimes something goes wrong with my file. Yesterday, the officer from the consulate told us that they are still waiting for the medical results to be approved from Canberra!!! I wasn’t expecting to hear that. My agency told me that two years ago, there was another student whose file was also sent to Canberra for a decision; it took an extra 10 days to get her results.

If the student visa were our only concern, I wouldn’t mind this delay that much, but we need to do other things after obtaining our student visa. Yesterday, my husband submitted his resignation. I already told my school that I am not going to be here next year. We found tenants for our house. We sold most of our stuff... But still, we haven’t received our visas. I know that people can go through more difficult times, but sometimes I think waiting is not for me. I am like the boy in the picture; then I consider what faith is and believe that God may have another plan for me. Just wait and see...
