For us, it was peace of mind knowing that we'd filled out the right forms, written the skills assessment correctly (as the assessing bodies are SO nitpickey) etc. As I said in a previous thread, every penny was well spent.

We used George Lombard (based in NSW) - he's an absolute gem, and if it weren't for him, we wouldn't be here in Australia.
