Oh that's great! I thought the year that i was on a student visa wouldn't count! that's fab news! You've just made my day Thank you for being so prompt in your responses!

No worries!

Sorry Victoria, I'm just working on the application and in Section 3 where they ask for occupation details, I'm a little stuck.

I'm currently in between jobs, just resigned from one at the end of November and the next begins on January 14 next year. I don't want to have to wait to submit the application until then, but can't exactly fill in anything in this section now as I'm not currently employed. Do you recommend I wait to submit this once I've started the new job or does just stating that I'm unemployed hurt my chances in anyway?

Thanks!

Put unemployed, it won't matter.
