    Hi Amber we're getting a few people through but only had 2 really ridiculous offers, we just need the offers to be little higher then we'll sell - lost alot of money in our house but just got to bite the bullet and not look back!!!!! Keep your fingers crossed for us as just want to get on with moving back and starting again!!!!!

    Just read all the comments! Good to know as soon as our house sells here we will be moving back home and trying to get a mortgage!

    Do you have to do the tor form in one bit or can you save and start again later

    We lived in Atwell for a couple of years and kids went to school there but I’d probably steer clear now as seems to be a lot of drugs about, Piara Waters and Harrisdale are good areas also has a shopping centre plus Cockburn is not far away! .

    Hospitals in Perth are great its just the cost associated with things that need doing like MRI's as medicare doesn't cover that. I don't think I could afford to live out here when I'm older another reason we are going back next year!

    A bit confused is this something we need to fill out after we have got all our things packed and in a container or do we have to do it before?

    Hey dubsydney am I right in saying it took 6 weeks after sending in paper application to get a confirmation? I did a paper application 3 weeks ago was getting a bit worried as everyone else does theirs online!
  10. paulswin
    Has anyone posted their application? I did just wonder how much longer it takes!

    it looks like my electrical career could be over now, i studied at college for 4 years in my mid 20's got cg 2330 level 3 all the regulations and c&g 2391, started life as a floorfinisher and carried on with both jobs for the past 10 yrs, i applied and got my visa through floorfinisher and i decided to apply for an artc for the electrical side of things . it got refused basically saying 1. did not meet paragraph 4 of the criteria for the united kingdom 2.has been employed for not less than 7 years on work ordinarily performed by an electrical tradesperson in that classification and is capable of performing the work of that classification in australia 3. it was unclear from your employment evidence (which showed employment as a floor finisher and an electrician) whether you demonstrated the full range of duties expected of an electrical mechanic over a 7 year period i declared i have always been self employed and had an informal apprenticeship and even with supporting evidence from 2 different companies and also working on government installations it appears i am deemed not competent enough for australia :arghh:

    Hi derren7 you said hubby has to get his skill recognised by tra can he do that in oz as we're running out of time we leave in few months? He thought he could do some kind of intensive course over there to get his skill recognised.
