Guest Masiey123 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Please could anyone help us. Both myself and my husband would like to live in Australia. We have an auntie in Melbourne and an uncle in NSW. How do we go about which visa to apply for I have a BA Hon's degree in early childhood studies and my husband as no formal qualifications however he has 20 years work experience in property maintainance, plumbing, electrical, plastering,joinery,brick laying and other building works. We also need help who to contact eg:agents they all seem to ask for money and I do not know who I can trust. We also could do with some help on taking our 9 year old border collie dog where do we start? Please could someone out there help us!!!! We really need it. Thank You for reading my post.

Hi masiay, We used migration angels. They were great, Kristy was really helpful, if you google migration angels there is a free self assessment on there and then she will get back to with a no obligation chat free of charge to see what she can do. good luck.

You're not going to the moon! It amazes me how people seem to think you are when in fact they could come and visit for the price of one week in a 4* in the med. my parents are the same but I think they are starting to realise having checked out prices for flights. Still I know it's going to be heart wrenching when our time comes Good luck! So jealous we're not flying with you Wednesday! Lou x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
