Hi Barry,thanks for your response,much appreciated.

Hi everyone, We have decided not to go through a migration agent and are preparing all documents for our TRA assessment. which is correct assessing body for wall and floor tiler. We need 210 documents certified as an estimate. 18 front page certified documents and bout 190 of them initialled and dated. We are wondering if anyone recently has done this and could help with advising how much this would cost. I have emailed public notaries and are now looking for a good affordable solicitor that can help us. I have a feeling this is not going to be cheap. Or can a migration agent offer this service for TRA preparation only? Based on what we have researched, we would have to pay 2500 upfront plus the TRA fees to go through an agent. we have looked at this a lot and feel we can get all of what is needed for evidence etc and submit it our self. If anyone can help advise we would really appreciate it!! i have spent days on preparation so far, its very time consuming, ut i know it will be worth it in the end.

Hi, Can anyone help advise on if we should wait until my husband has had a back decompression, he has a trapped nerve in his lower back, has undergone treatment for the last two years. it was a result from a road traffic accident. My husband is a Wall and floor tiler with nvq 2 city and guilds back in 2005. since his accident he has been back to work and working 6/7 days, he gets the odd twinge and a bit of numb feeling, so the decision is up to him to have the decompression op or not, still undecided, however we are unsure to start the visa process prior to op date which would be December 2016 or Jan 2017, or wait until after operation. we have been advised 3 months recovery time where he will not be able to work. many thanks in advance. hoping to move to Oz 2017.

Thank you much appreciated very stormy !!

Thank you very much for your reply, we are going to contact a migration agent later today by email to see what they recommend. Thanks again!

Hi everyone, As a hobby I male my own jewellery and over the years I have collected all types of jewellery supplies flat head pleas nose pleas, all types of beads ranging from wooden I mutate pearl beads head pins eye pins etc. I know lead is prohibited into Australia borders bug wondered if anyone has shipped over jewellery making supplies or should I start from scratch the other side? Thanks, from wet n windy grey clouds in Cardiff UK. Hoping to move end of 2017 xx:hug:

Hi everyone. We have been informed that due to a road traffic accident 2 years ago my husband needs to have a back decompression operation to relieve a trapped nerve. It isn't decided if my husband is going to go ahead with it. But if he does we are looking at 3 months recovery period. We have looked up health issues that could fail and we r concerned that we shouldn't apply until after his operation. But as the visa application is going to be about a year anyway, we are wondering if we should not wait and proceed as his operation would be December 2016 if my husband does go ahead with it. The application costs are not cheap. And so my question is to anyone who would be able to help advise or have been in a similar position could give some feedback or advice on their experience. Since the accident my husband has been working with no problems just a big sore. And working 6 and 7 days a week. So working is no issue. We are led to believe he would be fully functional 3 months after the operation. He is a wall and floor tiler. Can anyone help advise us so we can make the decision when to start the application process with a migration agent. Many thanks from cold wet windy Wales UK. Longing to be in Oz.

Very interesting topic. enjoyed reading thanks!
