Hi,

Can anybody recommend someone to certify certificates in the Milton Keynes Area??

Thanks,

Hi can't help specifically with the area but we are getting ours certified at our local magistrates court. You just phone up and make an appointment a couple of days in advance and the best thing is that it doesn't cost you anything! Should be the same for you - just find your local magistates courts.

Thanks Tiggs, I was thinking it would cost a bit...

we were expecting it to cost us a fair bit (30 documents to certify next week) so were really pleased to find this option instead!

We took our docs to MK Magistrates Court and it cost £8 for about 70 docs!! It did take most of the morning and we had to sit in on a sentencing!! but it was pretty painless.

Where abouts are you heading??

That's what I did, I had over 100 docs and cost 8 quid. The magistrate did grumble abit about the amount and how they should review their policies, but she still did it. Be prepared for a very long wait, you can't make an appointment at MK and they do them when they have time in between cases.

Thanks Pink, Melbourne hopefully - how about you?

I rang the magistrates as we will be doing ours shortly too and they quoted £8 as mentioned and said I should ring in to make an appointment. But obviously not then.

So where is everyone heading? and what visa/skills are being used?
We're going to Perth. Just not sure which part yet.

Hi LisaT,

We are hopefully heading to Melbourne on a skilled independent as an electronics engineering technologist.

Sorry, I have a tame JP so didn't have this problem. Given there are quite a few of us in MK, how about a meet sometime?

Hi all. I live in M.K and used Borneo Linnells in Newport Pagnell.
Saw me at short notice and I was in there no more than 25 minutes. Cost £60.00 (had about 10 docs to do as well) which was well worth it to me as I am self employed.
Hopefully heading to Perth in summer 2007.

Would be up for that.

I'll start a new thread on the meet-up section so as not to get knuckles rapped for hijacking this thread!!!! Here's the link to it.

Hi Kay

I had a friend at Franklins and so got all mine done there. I can't remember how much I paid as it was so much a copy (I would need to go back to an old cheque book!). However, I'm sure it was more that the 8 pounds quoted for going to the magistrates court.

That's where I would be heading if I was doing it all again.
