I am incredibly grateful and elated to announce that yesterday my Permanent Resident visa was granted. 

It's been a long 7 years to get to this point and and even longer 18 years of living in this country that I am proud now call my forever home. 

So incredibly grateful to the Hon Matt Thistlethwaite, MP and his team for taking my case and granting this visa. I am also so greatful for the support of the Hon Zali Steggall, MP and her office for their support in this matter.

 

I would love to thank my incredible family and friends who have supported me through this entire process. So many people from across the country have offered kind words, prayers, and support and I couldn't be more greatful.

 

To all the incredible people that have been there for me in this journey, you know who you are. My heart is overflowing with gratitude. Thank you.

 

And finally, a massive thank you to all the strangers who despite not knowing me personally, have taken the time to read my story and to care. Whether you signed the petition, or just shared it, you have made such an impact. So thank you.
