Immigration Forum / Australia and NZ / May 2007Certifying Documents (is this right) ?
Hi Everyone, I have come across this forum whilst looking for an alternative wa (other than a JP) to certify documents as i think i'm being quoted to much. The thing is my wife needs to get 10 different documents certified an requires 3 copies so 30 documents need to be certified. I have made her an appointment which is only once per month at ou local magistrates court and i have already been told it will be £8.0 per document so i am thinking this is going to cost us either £80.00 o £240.00 depending on how they look at it, after reading other posts o this forum most people are paying only £8.00 in total or getting i done for free, i have checked with my local court again and they ar still saying £8.00 per document, is this right, its going to cost us fortune, also local solicitor wants to charge us £65.00 per document. Thanks in advance, any advice would be appreciated -- DJorgi it does cost a lot these days to emmigrate ,everyone comes across a minor payment like yours every now and again along the way > Hi Everyone, > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Thanks in advance, any advice would be appreciated. Hi DJorgio We've had to get docs certified twice now, once for skill assessmen and once for visa application. Both times we phoned the magistrates court who told us to take them i before the court sessions started (any day) and they were signed. Firs time they were signed by a JP, second time by the duty solicitor. Bot times it cost us £10 for the whole lot. First time we had about 1 docs, second was about 20 docs. I think £8 per document is extortionate and if I were you I would phon around the magistrates courts in your area. You may have to trave slightly further afield but it may be worth it. I hope this helps a little.

My wife has been accepted for a job as a nurse in NSW so i think sh needs 3 copies as 1 extra copy needs to go to the Oz nursing board. Thanks again Stev -- DJorgi I have contacted Brighton magistrate courts and they are only chargin £8.00 (TOTAL) regardless of how many documents and also they ar much more flexible, we can simply turn up any day (mon to fri) at 09:3 without a prior appointment. :cheers -- DJorgi Well Done Steve! That's fantastic! Knew you could do it. They were having a laugh :cheers: Emma -- danie That's outrageous! They can't do that. We had to wait a while on the da but no mucking around like that. I would definitely keep phoning around what a pain. :( I will send you good positive vibes! ;) Emma -- danie daniel;171443 Wrote: > That's outrageous! They can't do that.

I will have to get the prices in writing first lol befor sorting out the logistics next time i think. I will post back how i goes, thanks again -- DJorgi I'm stunned at what you people are having to pay! Usually stuff lik this is more expensive and complicated to do here in SA but this is on that isn't. Our police station can certify documents and they have to d it for free, so we literally just pop in to the local police station an have it done whenever we need to. I can't believe they make it s difficult and expensive in the UK -- lori_ |
