Question Trades Recognition

Oh what fun this Trades Recognition stuff is!! What don't they want to know??
We are having a nightmare with all the paperwork, and being self employed has made it far worse.
Is this the worst bit or does it get even worse??
Thougt because OH had all qualifications, work experience etc etc it would be straight forward, I was wrong!!
We have a great agent but at the end of the day you still have to get all the info together, its kinda taking the fun out of the whole dream really.
What comes after this TRA??

Hi The Bakedalaska Four, yes the TRA's are the worst, but you have to get though them to get onto the next step, which is the visa application form, but if you are using an agent, our agent had filled ours in and all we had to do was check it over and sign it a couple of times.

Good luck.

Hi the Bakedalaskas.

The TRA is definitely the hardest part of it all. Just keep plugging away at it and it will eventually come good for you. Don't lose sight of what you're aiming for and try not to let the momentum slide. Once the TRA is passed, the Visa application is a doddle in comparison.

Like KP says, if you are using an agent, then they will fill all the Visa forms in for you. You just have to apply for your police checks and sort out your medicals. Its strange how blase you become about the whole thing as each stage is passed.

Good luck with it all and if you get fed up, just come on here and have a whinge.
