Health Worries and Choosing a Migration Agent
My wife and I are hoping to emigrate to oz with our 9 month old baby. I am concerned about my health. I have obstructive sleep apnoea, an under active thyroid and have had cellulitis in my leg on a number of occasions over several years. We are trying to find out whether this will affect a skilled migration visa application before starting the costly process.
We are also wondering if anyone can recommend a good migration agent or suggest what to look for when first contacting them. We have spoken to one agent and asked about the heath issues. They gave us contact details for a doctor in Sydney. We emailed her a week ago, but have not heard anything. We also arranged a "free" one hour appointment with them at a hotel near Heathrow which they have cancelled and re-arranged for mid Feb. So first attempt isn't looking so good!
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Many thanks.
