Good luck

Hi Tania what does your OH do is is it your qualifications you are going on?

Hi Catherine and Matt
It is my skill as an hairdresser, i had to supply more client testimonies, and get a letter from the wholesalers from which i purchased my stock from, my problem was i have worked for myself for the last 22 years and the TRA needed more evidence

Yes can sympathise with you, i sent all City & Guilds quals off and NVQ level 3 certs off, but i suppose the TRA have got to be sure that you are fully qualified, it was just more money we had to find to resubmit all our paperwork again, but we passed so that was the main thing. You'll get there, you've just got to be patient we're nearly 18 months down the line now, from when we first started.
Good lucl

I am good with paperwork (20 years in admin!) but the TRA forms and References are something else! We are using Go Matilda and so far they are really good. Still in the early stages but certainly no regrets yet! If its a cost issue I would rather make saving elsewhere, lets be truthful if we dont get the visa we aint going nowhere!
exactly!

Hi Tania, thanks for your reply what agency are you with...
Hi PIO we have used Go-Matilda, my friend recommended these and she has been living out in Oz for 12 months now. They are very good, can't think how much we have paid though.
Cheers Tania X
