I decided to use the DIY package because even though I was capable of gathering most of the necessary evidence for my application myself, it was completely overwhelming trying to sort through what was really needed, formatting everything and figuring out what to include in letters that supported my application. By using this package, I felt like I had clear guidelines and it cut out a lot of uncertainty for me. I also appreciated that the migrate team was responsive to my emails. After months of waiting, I got positive feedback on my application and I know this package played a big role in making that happen.
