What's already covered and what's the $3,450 for?
Sure. The biggest one is filing and biometrics fees, $400. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. It helps to be asked.
Thinking of you and your family, Gerald. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best
