Hi all. Have a lot of people who have moved abroad used an agency? I have emailed a few and they have all been really helpfull and say that with them you have a lot more of a chance to gain residency than if you did it on your own.

I know it costs a bit to go through an agent but is it the better option? Also can anyone advise on any good ones?

If you can afford it and want everything to be easier then use an agent, all those of us that used and agent could afford it and swear by them. If things are tight then do it yourself and use forums such as this one for your answers, my mate went it alone and is now living peacefully in melbourne with his family and 2 friends of mine and my family used agents and we too are living happily in Oz, the first mate is 2000 pounds better off but he got in 6 months after us.

Hi we used Sherie at migratemates.com - have found her to be excellent. Met with Sherie a month or two ago when she was over very helpful.

That part is not true at all. An agent will help you to submit a more complete application and can guide you if you have a complicated case, but they cannot secure your residency. That part is down to YOUR information - whether you meet the criteria, etc.

It depends, if you are confident and have a straight case, you can go ahead without one.

But is is upto you. Here, we have George Lombard and Tony to name a few and they have a pretty good reputation here

Cheers!
