Well done Gav!

I know how you feel. Aften the assement can be the most difficult part
as you are never really sure what the ACS are looking for, in the case
of the DIMIA it can seem more straight forward and precise on what
they need.

Thanks everyone for your messages!!!

With regards to the ILETS, I don't I have to do this, as English is my
mother tongue (although I am from Essex originally and some may say
otherwise!).

My agent is sending the necessary DIMIA forms today via email and we
plan to get them completed and returned before 1st July...
