Re: recommend a good migration agent
For free initial advice....
Go and See ALL the ones you can get to!!
The way I see it is that the more information/advice you're able to get for free the better!!!
Plus, if you forget to ask some questions at the first consult you can make a note of them and ask them at the second.
It will also give you an opportunity to make an informed decision as to which agent, if any you want to use!

We are using Concept Australia they are in Kent. They came to us for a chat to check to see if we could get through as they have 100% pass rate they are very friendly and there fees were just under 1500 quid.

Re: recommend a good migration agent
Find the form you are looking for which represents your visa, fill it in, verify the checklist and post it off?
My visa costs £80 and the agents wanted 1500???
Edit to say: My apologies I realise some visa's are propbably a little bit more complicated than mine.

Re: recommend a good migration agent
Know it sounds alot but nothing is easy in our life. I have to boys 20 and 17 who don't want to come and my partner has a daughter he dosen't see (11) so need a lot of help as to what to do. We also live "in sin" ha ha and have a 4 year old so don't have much time to work out what we need to do lol.

Why are folk spending 1500 on agents?
