I don't know if anyone else has read this thread and been taken aback by the cost of the medical, I'm certainly thinking we've got to make even more from the sale of our house now if we're going to be able to afford this whole thing. I wondered if it would be helpful to have a rough cost calculator somewhere on the forum, so you could see a full breakdown as to how much the whole immigration process might cost before evn considering living expense etc. Maybe it could just be a reply to this thread or a sticky topic at the top of the forum. I guess different depending on the country of residence. Could we have one on the UK to New Zealand forum at least? Personally Ithink this would be no nonsense useful advice for all us pie in the sky procrastinators :icon_lol:
