appreciated. How do you define a shitload? £50 £100 £500? Genuinely curious as to how much cheaper it would be set against the effort bearing in mind as I said earlier in the thread I’m going to have very little time for anything other than work over the next few months.

@Brian *******

thanks

@Martin ********

either would suffice will be needing more in depth advice further on so any agency that can give precise up to date advice would be a helpful starting point.

@Paulus ********

wasn’t the question I asked. Thanks for your input non the less.

@Lisa *******************

thanks but wasn’t the question I asked. I’m fully aware I can do it myself.

Ok thank you

That’s very kind of you Kev. I’m mainly just looking for sensible advice. I’m hoping to head out to see family in late September early October for 8 months. So far it seems I’m only eligible for the 2 month tourist visa with option to extend for 1 month when in country. My main situation is that in a few days time I will be working 12 hours a day 7 days a week until mid September giving me very little time for organising anything, hence why I thought maybe an agent would be a sensible route to take
