I am going to apply for my visa and am in 2 minds as to whether i should use and agent or not,has anybody gone thru the application process without the use of an agent and if so is it simply enough.

Hi Rugbycol

I'm a spark myself and my family and I used an agent. But saying that in hinds sight the whole process was pretty straight forward and we could probabally have done it ourselves.

If your application seems straight forward and you have plenty of work history do it yourself.

Alternatively use an agent just for the TRA section and then do the rest yourself, but be sure to use an agent that does not contract you in to the whole process.

Yes we have used an agent and found them help full especially in the early stages . The way I see it is thier fees can be paid for the cost of a holiday . We used ambler collins , a girl called Sinaed delt with our case.We have just got our visa and hope to be out there by June. Where are you thinking of going?Good luck

hi paul cally, we have just started skills assesment we are using ambler collins too, did it take long for you to get your visa, did you think they were value for money, we are also being dealt with by sinead.
