Hi Karen,
My husband and i had the exact same problem, if my husband was one year younger we would have 120 points and do it all by ourselves, so as it stands we can gather together 115 points. We looked into WA State Sponsorship and my husbands skill was not on their demand list, my husband is a Civil Engineer and in oz they have 3 types of Civil Engineers and on WA demand list they had the other 2 but not the one my husband has been classed as, so we e-mailed WA to see whether they would still sponsor us, and they replied that it is not on the list but it might be worth filling in an online application anyway as they check each application on a case by case basis within each Region to see if there is a demand, so that is what we did, will filled in the online application form and this morning we got the letter saying they will sponsor us and we have 3 Regions we can live and work in. (These were also the 3 Regions we chose on the application form.
i hope this helps?
Let us know how you both get on.
Good Luck!!!!
