@Tod ********

thankyou…. Again… appreciate you and Stuart’s help

@Tod ********

thanks Tod … that is sound advice … I truly appreciate your help with this and will certainly take your advice on board ….. ie … no expectations from immigration etc ….I will contact immigration in New Year to initially inform them about situation and see where I land ….my visa runs out in mid February…. Is it correct to inform them early rather than last minute?

@Stuart ********

thankyou ….for your patience and support….that all makes perfect sense

@Stuart ********

thanks … I thought it was that ….

@Tod ********

kindly offered some sound advice re talking with immigration re an overstay …..for me to leave…. Where would be the best option to go? Really thankful for your advice

@Tod ********

that sounds like the best option rather than having to leave ….it’s 6 days in total…. Would they show some tolerance for that time???

@Stuart ********

it’s based on 50 years …. So it sounds like I will need to leave and then enter exempt…. Stuart could you explain what ‘entering exempt’ means? I am Australian
