darraghbyrne11 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Congratulations Nello! Im in the same situation going for 189 carpenter. At the minute I can only show 4 years of tax and bank statements as I got paid a couple of years cash. Do you think be better to go for a 190 considering I can only show the 4? Was going to send a letter from my boss to say I was working them years getting cash but not sure that would be enough to satisfy immigration.
