I reckon I could lay claim to be the oldest person here applying for a Skilled (136) visa! I have just started filling in the 47sk having had a successful TRA Application last week. ![Unsure](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/unsure.gif)
I am 44 and 9 months, so the pressure is on to get that Visa sent before my 45th birthday in September.

Anybody else at the same stage older than me?![Embarrassment](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/redface.gif)
Why do I have to leave everything to the last minute??![Huh?](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/huh.gif)

I cut it fine. Visa application reached Adelaide on 19 February, I was 45 on 2 March. And hubby was already 46 so he'd already missed the boat. Got the visa now though

Hmmm. I think my husband wins so far. He was 10 days short of his 45th birthday when he lodged the application
