Permanent Visa
Haven't been blogging for the last few days due to tight schedule.
Thank God that I've been granted permanent resident visa (similar to green card in the US) after 1 year + 1 month of long process & waiting. I'm now officially an Australian resident (not citizen).

She came to Australia to visit her adopted daughter in Melbourne on 12 month visitor's visa in 1995. However, no airline would take her back to China due to her old age. Cui Yu Hu doesn't have a home nor families in China since they're all dead.
I sincerely hope that Australian Immigration Minister Amanda Vanstone can make an exception of granting her permanent visa instead of just keeping her on bridging visa.
