Right, I've found that my girlfriend qualifies for a 190 visa state sponsored in Canberra. Now I'm trying to work out how the visa works in terms of my application. My occupation is not on any of the SOL/CSOL lists. It looks like I can be included on my girlfriends visa application? Also, costs for the 190 visa look to be about $7,300. Would that cost cover both of us, or would I have to pay that as well? Thanks again in advance for any help...

Graphic Designer is listed on CSOL Schedule 2, and she's degree qualified with a 1st, so passing a skills assessment should be no problem...

My girlfriend and I are looking to move to Australia, either Melbourne or Sydney and we're trying to work out if it is feasible in terms of sponsored visas etc. So, my girlfriend is a graphic designer, which is on the sponsored job list. Does anyone know what the opportunities if any there are to find a company willing to sponsor her? We could go out there on a working holiday visa initially, but I don't know if this is a better or worse way of doing it? I'm to old to get a working holiday visa, so we're really reliant on my girlfriend being able to get a visa. Any helpful advice welcome... Thanks in advance, Mark

I've recently had a couple of trial Helicopter pilot lessons, and I am considering training for my Private and then possibly Commercial pilots license. Would I be able to get sponsorship as a helicopter pilot? Would I be better training in Australia? I think it will be cheaper, and would this increase my chances of being able to get residency? Thanks in advance, M
