i am a paediatric nurse with 15 years experience who is hoping to send the skilled migrant independent visa very soon!! as soon as i get my skills assessment with the anmc approved.
my husband is a baker and is also got a skilled trade so we are awaiting his tra results as well.
we are hoping to go the perth within the year if all goes to plan
i am just a little concerned over child care as i have 2 at school now and a 3 year old who is at preschool but it seems to be a bit hit and miss regarding childcare and if i have to go back on the wards!! shifts may be a problem but i suppose we will cross that bridge when we come to it....................way.................... down the line

skills independent migrant 175 as a nurse!! husband is a baker!
3 girls aged 10,5 and 3:wubclub:
Started this process about this time last year and am going down the State Territory Nominated Independent route (visa 176). Just waiting now to find out if we are going to be granted the visa ????
I first trained as an Enrolled Nurse in 1982 (where have all the years gone), worked as an Enrolled nurse for 6 years then left nursing to have babies and look after them.
Decided to return to nursing in 2004 but had to start from scratch again and completed my Degree in 2006.............felt like I had never been away.
On qualifying, I took up a post in Acute Medicine (not for the faint hearted) but now work in a nurse led Dermatology unit.
So far I have had a telephone interview for Townsville and the offer of various jobs around New South Wales but my heart is set on Victoria (family there).
I have applied for two jobs in Victoria but so far unsuccesful with one and awaiting a reply from the second one.
Good luck to everyone
I am Tracey (31) and have been qualified as a paediatric nurse for 10 years, We are currently just waiting for our visa (fingers crossed) and are planning to go to Adelaide June/July time, house sale willing of course. OH Pete will become a stay at home dad for a while until the children are settled and then will decide what to do, he is currently a driving instructor. We have 4 children aged 7, 5, 2 and 7 months.
Look forward to following the thread

Hi All! What a great idea. I'm a Community Mental Health Nurse and have been in the profession since 1997. My husband and I are planning on taking our 13month old to Armidale as I (hopefully) have a job waiting - just waiting for letter of confirmation. We started this process last April and hope to be in Armidale around May/June. We're looking forward to our new adventure. Are there any other's going inland for a tree change?! Good luck to you all. Tracey
