Saryfairy, you can get a Kompass account if you really want one by going on to the Irish page of the site and doing it from there. Although there's little point until the UK program opens.

You cannot as I tried earlier getting a Kompass account through the Irish page but changed the country to the UK. I put all my details in but it said you cannot apply yet because our initiative has not opened yet. Therefore if you have a kompass account already you are applying through the wrong country!!

Got a bit of a random question, maybe you folks could help me with, you know on the MyCic account thing (stage 2) it asks for an upload of a receipt for a medical- has anyone else got that on theirs or is that just cos im a nurse and therefore may need a medical to get out there (although i dont know why as dont plan to nurse out there just take a year out& do bar/shop work etc) I had a medical done for an OZ visa last month so hoping i can just upload the receipt from that? dont wana pay out another £310!

Okay trying to login to my Kompass account and it isn't recognising my details. It's possible they have just deleted everyone that tried to sign up for a UK account to make it fair when it does launch, or for whatever reason. Recommending no one bother to do this and just waits for IEC to launch today or tomorrow
