Hi Annie, The state of the economy at present is the worst it has been for 25 years in relation to the pound against the Aus Dollar. We will see a change after the UK elections and it would be in your favor if we dont end up with a hung parliment.…

Don't start to take any of your pensions e.g. State or Royal Mail until after you have taken advice. If you have started taking your pension you will be unable to take it as a lump sum.....and therefore will be taxed on it. My understanding is that…

We haven't had to pay the second instalment yet, having initially applied in January 2008....so it takes at least 18 months to 2 years. More important than using a migration agent - I would advise you to talk to someone expert in moving finances to…

HI, You should approach a migration agent and ask if they can help, any one the registered agents are in a far better position to assist you before you hand over any monies. As to what Chris is leading to below there would be a few pre requisits tha…

HI Rosemary,thanks for your quick reply, I have downloaded most of the forms and they dont look too bad , just wondered if there were any pitfalls that we weren`t aware of? I does seen silly to pay someone if you can do the job yourself. My son also…

We have used First Contact. They have been very good.....but you still have to fill in the whole set of forms yourself. They do provide you with someone you can question whilst filling in them in though. As Bruno said, the info is available online and quite clear once you start working your way through it.
We went to a Get Me DownUnder show in B'ham....well after we had applied for our visa, to check out removal firms etc. We also looked into financial advice and as I have mentioned I think this is more valuable to people of our age
