To give you some idea I wrote the equivalent of a short story detailing every aspect of my work [I'm a brickie] from setting out footings to building gables, stacks, arches etc. plus a little about the power tools and various hand tools I use. It's a lot of writing but our tra was back within a month approved. Here's the link to your trade:

Hi
We're just starting to get hubby's TRA skills assesed.
What have you folks done about getting a statement from your employer, obviously hubby's worried what his boss is going to say and that his job might be on the line, (they've started to make a few people redundant) and we can't afford for him to lose is job.
He's worked for the same company since leaving college, so he can't even go and as past employers!!

Hi Jenni,
I am just doing my hubby's TRA, and at the other end of the scale my husband was worried that if he told his employers that he was considering emmigration, he "wouldn't" get picked for redundancy and miss out on a large pay-out.
But our case is different, he is going to resign from his job whilst we go on a student visa, he is still not sure what to do though.
Good Luck,
Trayla
