Nemesis Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Hi all. Can anyone recommend a migration agent who has experience of dealing with health issues please? Also, does anyone have a ballpark figure for agent fees? Thanks. Try Peter Bollard or George Lombard. Fees would depemd om whether they are just advising on medicals, doing the whole application, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopeful Mum Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Thanks Nemesis. Will look into them. Assuming that they do the whole application, any idea on fees please? I'm just trying to gauge if it's even a possibility to go down that route before approaching an agent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirstyj Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Our agent fees were £2500, we moved here in February this year, I hope it wouldn't change if you had any extra issues a good agent would know everything xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoll Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Our agent fees were £2500, we moved here in February this year, I hope it wouldn't change if you had any extra issues a good agent would know everything xx They may change if they have to put in extra steps to deal with medical issues which is what the OP requested. Unfortunately not all agents have a good grasp of the implications of medical conditions but I believe that PB and GL have medical specialist expertise available when required.

Kirstyj Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Well I'm sorry Quoll I think I answered this lady's question, and our agent has 30 years experience in migration issues and if we had any medical questions they were answered for us at no extra cost as well as what we had to do to get medical records and police checks from Spain !!!!!!

VERYSTORMY Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 For visas with medical issues, a specialist agent is a must and the two that are constantly recommended are above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopeful Mum Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Sounds amazing. The whole process seems really daunting at the moment so it's great to hear such a positive outcome! Thanks again for the information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopeful Mum Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Thanks also Quoll and Verystormy. It's great to have as much advice as possible. We'll definitely look into the people mentioned....need to bite the bullet then!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent, so glad it worked for you. Some folk have had significant medical issues and gone to a regular agent then discovered with a nasty surprise that they got a bum steer, so it is important is you have significant medical issues to talk to one of the guys who specialises - things like autism, transplants, cancer etc spring immediately to mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
