    NHS number

    oh that's good to know! He has gone to the dr's and they have sent off for an nhs number even though he was born there and didnt leave until 2012 when he was 13 He reckons you have to be in the country 365 days before you can get free treatment even though he is working full time doesn't seem quite right to me i've told him to check on it!!

  5. Hi TazG. I think he said it was £43 and he’s had to send his uk passport, birth certificate and oz driving licence the lady he spoke to said as long as you are going to live permanently in the uk then it’s all good! He sent it off today!
  6. Oh thanks for that! He’s not avhappy bunny as insurance will be high on an Aussie licence!
  7. Hi guys my son has moved back to UK 3 weeks ago and wants to transfer his au driving license to a UK one he’s a uk citizen but he’s read somewhere that you have to have lived in uk for 180 days before you can transfer your license Insurance on a car is sky high if he has to keep his au one!
  8. Hi Beckfield I was feeling the same but we managed to sell ours this July after being up for 6 months even though we've lost money but it means we can go back to UK Just hang in there I was getting really down about it all having the home opens every week was getting stressful but dont give up it takes just the one person to like your home and put in an offer x
  9. Do you have to do the tor form in one bit or can you save and start again later
  10. 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?

  13. 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!
  14. Has anyone posted their application? I did just wonder how much longer it takes!
  15. 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:
