Overland with Kids

We have just parted with some cash in order to undertake the Preliminary Skills Assessment with the migration specialist and are now moving to Stage 2 of our application. This is where we must commit much more serious money and to Andrew actually undergoing the fomal Skills Assessment itself - a written and practical excercise. So far, we have made 3 payments as follows:

  £317.25 Preliminary  (stage 1)

  £846.00 Skills Assessment (stage 2)

  $600.00USD Skills Assessment fee

  $1,500.00USD Practical Skills Assessment/Test fee

£20 Certified solicitor copies of references, passport etc.

£1183.25 Total (incl. VAT) + $2,100.00USD

We have been told that total cost (all 4 of us) will be around £5,000 via the migration specialist plus flight costs to then validate visas for a further 5 years before actually leaving on our overland trip. We hope that no-one tells us later that we could have done this another way (gulp!).
