agents home or away??

[Alan Collett]

For what it's worth, with us you can send documents to our office in Southampton. They are then scanned by my PAs in that office, and emailed to the appropriate person (including the Department of Immigration where relevant), after which original docs are sent to us in Victoria via our weekly courier delivery (sent on a Friday, and usually with us the following Monday or Tuesday).

Apologies if this is shameless self promotion ...

Best regards.

Hi Alan,
Isnt it better to send the documents by registered post?

[Alan Collett]

To where, Anj?

Clients can send docs to us in Southampton by Registered Post, and when we have cause to send important documents within Australia we usually use a courier or Australia Post's Express Post service.

Best regards.

Hi Karen,

Oh yes, the magazine comes out every month...The best place to buy it is in WHSmith.

There is a list that tells you what occupations they are looking for, im not sure where you find it now, but im sure if you start a new post on here, someone will help you. (What does your husband do, out of interest?)

Hi again Karen, I see your problem!...But im sure if you asked a GOOD migration agent they will be able to help you, draft up a good email, and bulk send it to the good agents, explain that you arent sure if his jobs on the list, I bet you'll get some good replies. If you do give it a go, let me know how you get on.

We are hoping to head over to the Sunshine Coast area, although, not sure exactly where yet, until we start the paperwork rolling we havent started really researching areas, just generally at this stage.

You mentioned your need to 'feed your obsession', well, I also subscribe to a newspaper called 'emigrate australia' (do a google) it gets delivered to me every month & has some interesting articles!

Kelly.

Hi Sikofbrit

Sorry for late response i have been on nights but fortunately am now back in the land of the living!! The agents are called visa-go and are based in Edinburgh i do all contact through email, post and maybe the odd call. Just email Darren chatt if you would like any information. We are mainly using an agent because i just haven't the time to go it alone but i know there are many on here that have, so it is personal choice. I think it would be a lot cheaper to go it alone but for me it takes the stress out of the process.

Let me know if i can help you further with anything
