sending off ACS assessment
We plan to send my hubby's info off at the end of this week. How is it best to do this? We are not using an agent.
We were planning to send via registered post - is the courier route only suited when you are in Australia? Is it too expensive to do it this way when in the UK?
Really appreciate any advice

Hi
I sent mine via UK Registered Post, unfortunately you cannot track this online, however I got a response that it had been received quickly and the assessment completed in about 10 weeks.
Make sure that you supply as much information as you can especially is you are applying for a specialisation on the MODL list.

I sent mine DHL with InterParcel. Cost about £15 I think but got there in 72hrs. Heard horror stories of Royal Mail international taking 3-4 weeks!

another 
for InterParcel.
Very painless, although the only surprise I got was that the DHL guy wanted to inspect the parcel's contents prior to taking it. It was a bit of a pain 'cause I'd just sealed it up when the door bell went.
Fingers crossed it all goes well!

We used Interparcel as well (www.interparcel.com), very easy to arrange and got there within a few days

Been looking at the DHL stuff but keep coming up with the cheapest price of £43! What am I doing wrong??

Re: sending off ACS assessment
hey,
The easiest thing to do is go to...
http://www.interparcel.com/quote/
put in the dimensions for a large A4 Envelope (roughly 30 * 24 * 0.5) and submit and then choose DHL Document express.
Good luck, let us know if that works?

Re: sending off ACS assessment
Thanks again - I'm very excited as it's being collected tomorrow. (Yay!)
Hmm - now for the wait!
