Hi
I submitted my HSMP application from Australia on 2 April, and am currently awaiting my decision. I have a valid working holiday visa which does not expire until 20 Jan 09 (although my 12 month work has expired).
I am meant to be in Europe for travel between 12-20 July, and am worried that I will struggle to get the approval before then. Under the new rules, is it possible for me to travel to Europe and or UK in mid July, and if my approval does come through mid July; have the original approval letter posted to me in Europe and or the UK, and then apply for EC at a British Diplmotic post somewhere in Europe, which will save me returning all the way back to Australia to apply for EC and get my passport stamped? Any assistance would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks
