    Hi all, we have just applied for 190 visa and booking medicals; however dont know where to start with getting the dogs over to queensland. I am worried about timings etc of rabies tests and all the other processes. Does anyone know how long the tests last for and how long the results take for all clear etc. Also i understand that they have to be microchipped but is there anything else I should know about which I need to get moving with. thanks Paula

    I'd email and ask them. You've got nothing to lose...I would be 5 points short so am going for state sponsorship which gives me the 5 I need. Is that not an option for you if need be?

    The 150.00 dollars got me an extra 10 points which I needed to make the required 60 for a 190 visa. I have 3 years working experience as a Social Worker so this will be confirmed by the assessing body and passed onto Migration dept.

    Hi, my understanding is that you complete expression of interest first but you need the positive skills assessment and IELTS first as they ask for the reference numbers. You then need to wait for an invitation to apply for your chosen visa/s. I am sure thats they way to go. I am looking at state sponsorship so will need to apply for state sponsorship also. Hope this helps

    HI, you can claim points for working experince in your own nominated profession or closely related profession. This means that they give an opinion on how many years working experience you have in your occupation or closely related occupation in order to be awarded points. Be aware though that some assessing authorities charge extra for that bit. I've just paid 850,00 aus dollars for skills assessment and 150,00 aus dollars for the work experience bit. hope this helps

    Hi Rosey, was it difficult getting all info together. I am led to believe that you have to provide course content from university ie course handbooks etc. i will have 3 years post qual in july this year. Paula

    <p>hi Alan,</p>

    <p>Hope you can help...I finish my Ba Hons social work degree in june/09 and am wanting to emigrate to oz. I have been told that i may have to wait at least two years after qualifying before I can apply as work experience is required. Would you know if this is the case or not.i have 7 years in a related field, working in the community with learning disabilities, and wondered if that could be classed as experience. if post qualifying experience is required is there any way of gettin the ball rolling any earlier eg by getting oz job offer etc. if not by the time it is processed i will proably have the required experience anyway. one last thing Alan.. would i benefit from employing an agent such as yourself when i first qualify or should i wait. </p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>Kind Regards</p>
