Hi there
For the visa we are going for... you need 120 points to pass - we were planning on selling our house and putting money in a government bond for more points but we now have 125 anyway and if we invested the money that would bring us up to 130 points...
Obviously it would be better for us to have the money and possibly buy a house when we get to Oz - but will having the 130 points put us in better stead than the 125 points?? What are your thoughts on it..
Look forward to hearing from someone soon
