    News report highlights costs of emigration

    By Noreen Bowden | March 11, 2009

    The Irish Independent has run a feature story on the costs associated with emigration, highlighting the visa fees and associated costs.

    It reports, for example, that the General Skilled Migration programme to Australia costs over €5,000 for the visa, for example, while Canada requires that a would-be emigrant show they have at least CA$10,833 (about €6,717) to support themselves while looking for a job.

    Read the entire article at the Irish Independent website: If you want to escape, it will cost you.
