Hi, yes you may ask :)

I am a software developer, I work for a company which specialises in writing core solutions for the Broadcasting industry (essentially being able to manage automation, playout and media assets of video/audio etc using software and standard PCs instead of lots of expensive hardware). My wife is an industrial pharmacist and works for 3M, and it is under her skills we are applying for FSW1.

I am not from London, I am from a town called Loughborough, which is in between Nottingham and Leicester (anyone not from the UK may have heard of Nottingham because of Robin Hood etc).

I am not unhappy in my job, however for a number of years I have been getting itchy feet to try living in another country. I am 37 years old and after 37 years of living in the UK the novelty has worn off ;) I have an elderly great uncle and a few friends on Vancouver Island and we've been to Canada twice now for holidays - in September 2008 and again in April 2010 - in British Columbia and Alberta and we really loved it.

Since my wife and I do not yet have children it felt like the perfect time to give this a go.

I for say!. You are absolutely correct, my cost should be within that range if I include medical fees(family of 7), flights from PH to Lagos, or Abuja for the medicals + accommodation. However,my cost should be lower than yours as I did not use a consultant. Had used one for my 2007 application, I don't think it is necessary to use them, they work with the information you provide, you can as well present it yourself.
