How much and when do costs arise?

I know that no two applications are the same, it depends on the sort of visa.... but I have heard from a few sources estimates of c£10,000 and circa 12 months start to finish which seem to coroborate (I have never used that word before!) for the application process through to landing in Australia (we would go for the Skilled Independent visa class) (I have never used that word before!) themselves. So very roughly can someone give me a schedule of how much we might pay to whom and at how many months down the line. (Assume we only take a 20ft container and 1 cat).

Best thing to do would me to look at the Lifestyle and Culture forum, as this is where shipping is usually discussed. As for the application fee you can find out that here http://www.australia.org.uk/vti/HTML/charges.html
You're also need to add on £10 per person for a police check, and an average amount of £150 per person for the medicals.
