Visa question

LouP · 01-02-2008, 05:59 PM

Hi,
I'm new to this site and have just decided to take the first step to emigrating to perth. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a really good migration agent?

Thank you for your reply. We are applying for a skilled visa. Did you find it hard completing the paper work yourself?

no i had to fill it all in for 5 of us it is a long prosess as you have to repeat all the time we just downloaded it all then there is more to fill for medicals further down the line but again easy.

my hubby sent off all the letters for the TRA which take time as you have to keep reminding people to do it as he is a bricklayer had to get as much info as poss.
once that come back passed we sent off our visa's which you can get ready while you wait.

hope that helps any more info just pm me

Thank you for your advice. I will check them out. Have you been advised as to how long the process is likely to take?

Hi
We used Visalogic, they were very good and we just got our visa last week. Good Luck to you.

Our skills assessment (Accountant) should be completed in a few weeks (whole process about a month).. we have been advised the Visa application will take 6 - 12 months. Likely to be nearer 6 as Accountants are on the 'in demand' list...

Hi - we are using Global Visas - very helpful, reasonable fees which you can spread over a monthly basis. OH is a Plasterer so we had to get his life's working references !! took forever but got there eventually - Global Visas are very supportive and constantly update us. We are nearly there (fingers crossed), Got Case Officer in November 07, Meds arrived 24.12.07, PCC scanned over on 16th Jan 08 - just waiting now - its killing us !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck
