Yorkiesx5 53 Posted November 24, 2011 Hi Lee Do hope this is still on offer! This would be very useful as my husband sitting the test in Jan and needs all 8s for enough points. We are in Bishopthorpe and don't get over your way but very happy to pay the postage and package costs. Regards Maxine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yorkiesx5 53 Posted November 24, 2011 Never mind, will try ebay. Husband is IT professional with engineering degree but won't necessarily go down this route if we move over, if a job in this area made the move possible though he would go for it. By the way, he went down the RPL route for the skills assessment and the decision came through really quickly, 10 days I think. Regards Maxine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yorkiesx5 53 Posted November 27, 2011 We are in york. No def plans for Oz as yet, did the skills assessment expecting not to be successful but a positive result came through in just 10 days. We won't have enough points after Feb due to our age so it's sort of now or never really. Maxine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you don't you will always wonder what it was like...better to have lived the dream than dream the life! How many points have you at the mo? What do you need to get in IELTs? I turned 40 in April, so am having to get 8s to get enough points.
