My OH is also a plumber, I have been told that he could earn about A$100 a day, however that's probably after he gets aussie qualifications after 2 years at evening school, so bare that in mind.
Have you looked at getting your provisional licence yet? If you haven't look here Plumbing Industry Commission, Victoria, Australia - Home Page we contacted a Nicholas Payne who said if we contacted him with a postal address he would send the necessary forms etc for this, nicholas.payne@pic.vic.gov.au .

Hope this helps a bit.

Thanks for this Helen, we are also being sponsored by victoria, sent visa application in November and still waiting to be sent for our medicals, they did tell us they were 3 months behind.
Will look in to this licence as i was told not needed in victoria.
When are you and your family looking to go over?
