  1. Is your lawyer MARA registered? Put yourself in the states shoes. Sponsorship is precious to them, they can only offer a very limited number and so want to ensure the people it does, really want to go to that state.
  2. It is always a temporary visa. It does not come with any automatic path to PR. It has a LOT of issues. For example, it is tied to the employer. If you decide you don't like your employer or role? You can't just leave. If you lose your job, then bye bye visa. Nurses in Australia are usually working for a company and do get made redundant. There are possibly a range of visas available to you, a number of which would grant immediate permanent residence. A good migration agent would be a strongly recommended idea and there are a number of excellent ones who post on the forum.
  3. Is there at reason you are heading for a 482 visa given it is a inferior visa?
  4. It is an agent not a lawyer you need and the location doesn't matter as they normally do everything by email and phone. The best well known and highly regarded is George Lombard
  5. We lived in Dawesville for 8 years and would rate it very highly. We were on the golf course and it is very good for the beach and the beach is excellent and the only one in the area that is patrolled. The golf club has a nice little bar to sit out and things. Pinjarra is a very different feel. More country feel. Personally I liked it, though it does have some social problems.
  6. Use the search function to look up wrussel Paul Hand or Raul.
  7. I recommend you speak to a registered migration agent. There are several the post regularly on the forum.
  8. You need it before you lodge an expression of interest and if you are claiming points for English language then you need to have passed an English test such as ILETS prior as well.
  9. What is your occupation? Have you passed your skills assessment yet?
  10. It is what it says on the tin. A holiday with some work rights. To stay permanent you would still need to qualify as a skilled worker.
  11. There are no travel restrictions on entering the UK
  12. It would run this past a registered migration agent"

  14. I am early 50's, though still consider mys of fairly young. Young enough in fact that I am taking advantage of the free university educations here to go and retrain for a new career. I am going to be a nurse. Scotland is actually fantastic for younger people and Glasgow and Edinburgh are both very young feeling. For example, Glasgow has one of the largest live music scenes in the UK, and a lot of the industry is now very tech based. Edinburgh has a very large computer game industry and Glasgow also has a lot of things like tech. Oddly, it is also the home of the U.K. space industry. I think a lot of young people are drawn by the more progressive policies here.
  15. We moved back in 2016 and have not regretted a single day being back. We found ourselves in Scotland in a very pretty little village so enjoy a very rural life. But, we have a small town just a few miles away and Glasgow is only half an hour away. Scotland is incredibly progressive, which suits us. NHS is wonderful here. Even dentists. Housing is very reasonable and general living costs also very low.
  16. That is not correct. Simple as that.
  17. It would depend on the visa. But if it is a 482, then far, very far from given.
  18. I hav worked across Australia's mining regions and would be pretty hesitant in recommending it to someone who has not visited. The heat alone is extreme up there.
  19. There is a sticky at the top of the the pets section where you can chat to Bob from Petair. There are issues still with availability for things like quarantine
  20. IT occurs automatic when the current visa expires.

    Sponsorship!

    As Marisa says, yes, I personally know a lot of people Ho failed to gain PR and had to return home. I was one of nearly a dozen friends / acquaintances who moved around the same time. Less than half gained PR and I went to wave off a number at the airport. We have also seen many cases on the forum over the years. Particularly after a major shake up of the rules, which is often after an election and I believe there is an election coming soon.
  22. My advice would be to have a quick chat with a registered migration agent
  23. We used Movecube and found it very good. It is amazing how much can be fit in.

    UK Education

    Normally, there is a requirement that they are resident in the UK for 3 years before attending university to be entitled to home student status. Otherwise they are treated as international students. However, some universities have waived this for some courses.
