I finally did it, I lodged my application. It took me over 5 months to collect every single document, over a month to ring up the Australian Embassy in Berlin so that they would arrange an appointment (after numerous messages on their answering machines, countless emails and telephone calls to their visa services section. But finally, they have rung back. Turns out they wanted me to rather send in the whole file, full of documents and evidence that we have collected. So I DHL-ed it on April 3rd, and having traced it with airwaybill number 1218880740, it has arrived safely to the attention of Ms. Anke Gerick in Berlin. She told me over the phone that she would deal with it in person. Now lets just hope that she keeps her word, and touch wood that she rings us up next week as she has promised. I cant wait to find out whether the visa is granted.
Anyway, I am up for another few months of waiting, I suppose. God the wait is stressful. Can't wait to find out when I will finally be with my baby again.
