As in, a PART of NZ, not the whole place!!!

GOOD QUESTION: we say that to each other at the start of EVERY programme!!! I've always assumed its NZ, would be good to know, need to find out ASAP now...

Yes, watched them all, but enjoyed yours particularly Mathew (big respect for the sacrifices you have made in life, I certainly wouldn't want to argue against you!)

I've always enjoyed it, there was one particular episode a year or two back that was (from what I recall) a northern Dr, that actually traced some of his roots to a statue in Perth and went back to honour it, just made me think what a gent he clearly was not just for the work that he did but in life too, he's someone that I would enjoy meeting and it'd be a honour to buy a pint or two for people like that The reactions of families makes me smile though, I have to skip past it now because its a well-known personal sacrifice that is different for everyone and I don't really see the point of airing that part

I note that Managing Director is on the CSOl list? How is this defined? I have been an MD for my own company since 2006, with a big turnover business in the first several years, then more lately a smaller consultancy based role for the past couple of years Could I perhaps use this entity to be able to buy a business in WA and then go and work and run it? (which would be my intention) Thank you very much for any potential advice, happy to look into proceeding with an agent if you think this idea has legs Richard

Hi, just sent you a PM as a fellow DO, can you take a look, work for either of you won't be a problem, especially OO! Consider Cambs/Herts too, easy access to most places!

Without saying too much, my advice would be to look for an alternative visa company...

Maybe, I've been enjoying 15% for the past 9 months, lets see how long it lasts, although 8% is guaranteed as it has contacts in place already, its now CLOSED to investors as they are over-subscribed, so I am now realising that if you sleep on legit businesses you lose out

I have dealings with an Oz company that has launched in the UK and offers investors somewhere between 8 and 12%, I can pass their details on to you if you are interested, simply PM me

Thank you, I did own a company until recently with a t/o north of £1M, I'll put a call in to an agent as you suggest

Hi We didnt pursue the NT application further Also, regional visa wouldnt be ideal as the business is based in Perth and the franchises are dotted around there too

I have seen a business I REALLY want to purchase and run in WA Its a master franchise, existing business with a small number of franchisees under its belt Can I simply buy the master franchise and go and work in it? (I am currently in the UK) My skills aren't related to the type of business unless being an MD of my own UK current business would count for anything Any tips/advice would be much appreciated, I am VERY time restricted! Thanks in advance

We've just received the statement to commit to NT and it says the 489 is not transferable to any other state!

I have a 489 and job offer, but now the Mrs is getting nervous because its limits us to NT and a Regional area My wife is concerned what happens if things dont work out in NT because she wants some security We've signed a doc to say we are committed to NT, but whats the process if that all falls down, for example, the Mrs turns around after a few/weeks months and says she hates it there? Could we try somewhere else regionally or is the process WAY too slow? Thanks in advance
