Don't know anything more detailed but my wife did say the same, he is in town :)

@yankee00 I did come across this but saw quite a few comments on the trouble people had with this so didn't follow up checking it out though.

thanks guys, given me some things to look into today, especially the FIPE option.

Just the application for work visa to me seems to me that I'll need 2 years work experience and a degree in the field of work. We've just purchased a store and obviously an online presence but this won't be in any field I've studied/worked in to a level of that kind, any qualifications/experience I have are in computing.

Thanks for the replies guys :)
