Thanks for the response. I fully agree that going through my wifes occupation would be the way to do it. We are hoping our application should theoretically straight forward. My wife has a first class honours degree and 10 years teaching experience and i have a HND in Civil Engineering with over 10 years experience. we dont have any convictions or health issues and both in early 30s. I was considering using a agent for a smoother process as i wouldnt even know where to start.

Thanks Marisawright, Yeah i have been to Melbourne a good few times and loved it, i have family there also which will help with th emove.

Hi, Myself, my wife and 2 kids ( 2 & 4) have decided to emigrate to Melbourne from the UK. Prior to kids my now wife and I lived in Sydney for 1 year on a working holiday visa and loved it. We are now wondering if anyone could recommend a company to deal with the visa application. I think we are looking at the skilled independent Visa as both our professions are on the list. I am a Design draughtsman and my wife is a secondary Maths teacher. We thought about doing the application ourself but seems a bit complicated and would really like to get it correct first time. Any help/information would be greatly appreciated. Martin
