Yeah that's the thing... it's not so black and white, the door closes slowly for some. There is a definite line there with the D especially when we haven't been DBing for that long yet.


Btw blind, if you do choose to file I think you'd have to do it at the Aus court. The fee is $432.

To file in UK from overseas, you have to be an UK expat... either a resident in UK or UK citizen. (there might be an exemption if you own a home)
Even if you do get to file from o/seas, the respondent has to reply within two weeks to an UK address if I remember correctly --- this time frame is pretty difficult with snail mail across the globe! So it seems like a lot of expats hire attorneys to do it on their behalf.

Let me know if I've got the info wrong... very complicating when it's over different countries.


For me I have to report my M to all sorts of places, only to report D on the spot if it gets filed soon. Agh.
