Keglin Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hi everyone,My name is Karen and we are beginning the journey of making a better life for our little family.I grew up in Durban (Westville) but am currently living in the UK with my husband and 2 kids (3 and 5). Although we are happy here in some respects, we miss the lifestyle we grew up with. I.e. the sun.We are applying for a 176 skilled sponsored visa and are hoping that ACT will accept us. I am a primary school teacher and my husband is a Computer Networks and systems Engineer. Ian my husband is working extremely hard getting his skills assessment finished so that it can be sent off before the week end. Scared but excited is the feeling at the moment. Anyway nice to meet you all.Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
