Welwynrose - we've had to apply for work permits in the meantime, they're still in the system and they better bloody hurry up coz we need to earn some money like NOW!
Be prepared for the expense you guys.
$200 each for work permits = $400
$200 each for applications to study (all kids you want in education) = $600
$400 online EOI
$1400 ITA
$300 each migrant levy if successful to a max of $1200
Meds $180 each Dr's checks = $900
X-rays $100 each 11 years and over = $400
Bloods $92 each 15 years and over = $282
Not cheap folksies and will make a serious dent in your capital, especially if you're not earning.
Hatter5 - nice to hear from you. Sorry we didn't catch up with you in Welly, we weren't there that long. Hope all is well with you and yours xx
