we sent ours via dhl on 21st july, it was received by TRA on 24th july, they sent us notification of receipt dated 25th july which we received 31st july. we are waiting with baited breath! application is for gas fitter (modl) Diz x

Wow, thats really quick.

Thanks for all the replies, this is our 1st attempt at TRA and we are going solo, fingers crossed it goes well.

We are also going to do our own 175 if the TRA is successfull any tips you guys may have will help along the way!!!

We sent ours via the post office recorded delivery service to Canberra on july 25th, I had to call them last night and they said its still not been recieved as of yet

ours weighed nearly 1kg and cost us £50. i think the only thing we didn't put in was the kitchen sink! we took the advice of more is better - i just hope we covered everything (no agent). i will let you know as soon as we know the outcome Diz x

My wife is applying to be assessed as she is a hairdresser, ours weighed in at 0.125kg.... it is really confusing, we sent all our information which was required and gave a very indepth account of what she does obviously our kitchen sink is lighter then yours lol.

we stewed over it for 3 months before we submitted it. but fingers crossed it will be ok.

Just got confirmation from royal mail it is with the overseas postal service. will not use them again!!! to slow.

Good luck with TRA. I'm also a hairdresser i found out 4 to 6 weeks after submitting.
Hopefully it will arrive there soon and will be turned around quickly.
Best of luck

I sent mine on the 5th August, infact I've just posted another thread asking if I should expect confirmation which I can see is the case now! I am really worried that I have received no confirmation and the TRA are yet to reply to the mail I sent yesterday

If it has got lost I will have to get everything certified again and also apply for another international chq, a bloody nightmare! Not that there is any hurry since the housing markets that dead at the mo it looks like we will never sell to move anyway!

My OH's TRA application took 18 days but we never received a confirmation. It was done through an agent.

Chris N Lora

TRA have ack'd our application as August 14th ... and said 10 working days as it is on the MODL .. bu seems to be a bad time as all TRA seem to be rejected.

Don't panic. I put mine to the back of my mind as our agent was on holiday whilst mine was being assessed so in th end it took a little longer for me to find out that i was successful.
If you think that you've covered everything then thats the best that can be done for now.
Good luck and I hope it works out for you.
