Hiya angel
only just seen this post, but seen you have sorted it now. would just to add its not a hard process to go though as long as you have you money in place. just looks scary, and you think you haven't enough time.
Basically from start to finish on how to invest.
Choose who you want to invest your capital with, we chose W.A
Email them to get a info pack ( this will contain all info you need and forms that you need to fill out,ie bank details-phone numbers and adresses, just print them off ).
With you filled out investment forms and your request letter from your CO fax them to your chosen treasury ( details in the info pack ).
Buy your money from a trader, we choose HiFx ( they also send you an info pack on how to do it all. quite easy ).
Bacs your money to HiFx or whoever you choose, they then Bacs it off to chosen treasury.
Send off your orignal filled out forms that you faxed to chosen treasury ( we went with interparcel, cost å£26.50. top service, they picked the documents up at 6pm on a tuesday and they was on the desk of our chosen treasury by 9.30am thursday morning ozzie time, roughly 11pm english time on the wednesday, now that is quick,lol ).
We Got It! Sender: R.SoperHi There, After all my moaning about region 4, migration agents, CO's, and just about everything else to do with migration, we got our permanant residency (send independant) visa...
Tell your agent if you have one, that you have now sorted the tranfer of your money and they will then email CO to say the investment has been done and filled out forms from the treasury with be with them soon.
JOB DONE, in a week or so you will get a cert off your chosen treasury to say you have invested and copies of your filled out forms that they sent to your CO.
Sit back and wait for your visa's.
ps, you used to have your request letter signed by your CO, but now that is not needed, they inclose a cover sheet basically telling the treasury the will sign it afterwards. Also dont panic to much about your investment date time, there surpose to be quite flexible as long as ou tell them whats going on, ie house money is coming though in a couple of weeks and so on.
It all looks a bit daunting when you first get your request ( well we thought it was, we had 28 days to sort it )but it was very easy in the end and i hope i have explained the above in a way in which you can understand.
Lastly, we had to have our investment all sorted by the 30th of march, which it was, and we got the email on the 7th of april to tell us our visa's are sorted. Surprised us a bit seeing as we are 136 non modl and every thing else has took a lifetime,lol.
