Cost, Please

Hello, guys.
We are currently at the early stages of migration.
Can anybody give me an indication and breakdown of the costs involved in applying for TRA, meds, etc.

All information relevant to this would be very helpful..........

Thanks

Hi. We didn't use an agent. It cost the 5 of us the following:

Skills assesment: £175
Visa application: £900
Medicals: £650
Police checks: £20
Certified copies: £15
Postage: £15

I guess there were other small costs along the way, and no doubt some prices have changed since last year, but all in you will do it yourself for under £2000. Also, you pay in stages (i.e. skills assesment, visa application, meds), and since there is such a delay in getting things back it never seems like you are paying out a massive lump of money in 1 go.

Hi - We Used Agent Cost Us £2500 - Still Have To Do Meds Which Is An Extra £750[3 Of Us] And Police Checks £30
Unless You Have Exceptional Circumstances I Wouldnt Use An Agent - Info On This Site Would Be Enough To Get Me Through !!!
