Hi, I am just asking for some advice. i came over to australia as a icu nurse on a employer nominated scheme in January 2011. im thinking of changing employers and want to know if there is a minimum amount of years that I have to work for my employer before I move on. I tried to ask immigration but after nearly 30 mins waiting to speak to someone I gave up. TIA

Hi, there are nursing jobs in perth and next 18 months two new hospitals will be opening. I've been here for 2 1/2 yrs and love it, C

With the employer sponsored visa does anyone know how long you have to work for that employer? For example, if I work for the employer that sponsored my permanent visa for 2 years and then I wish to transfer to another company due to promotion possibilities etc can I do that? Also my job is on the skills shortage list if that makes any difference. Thanks, C

Lots of nice places to eat in Perth. I live SOR and found a great Indian restaurant innVic Park called Cinammon on the Park. Reasonably priced, place is smallish but good flow of customers. Would defo recommend it. Good luck on your move here, it's daunting but the best thing we ever did! Been here for almost 2 years and can't see ourselves going back to live. Cx

Hi everyone, thanks for all your responses I was just seeing what peoples experiences/ opinions are before I sought out professional advice. All very informative. I love the way the Poms in Oz family help ach other out :-) Cx

Hi all, I am looking for some advice. I worked for the NHS for just over 5 years and have emigrated to Australia and cant see myself ever going back to live in the UK. I am thinking of transferring this pension to my Australia fund but I am unsure. i rang my pension provider here, HESTA, and the telephonist said she wouldn't send. Form but it would take approx 4 months, oh and she said it will take this long as no one is totally sure how to do it!?! She didn't mention any fees etc. if I had a pension less than 2 years I could have taken a lump sum, it's a shame that I can't just receive a lump sum :sad: would appreciate any advice, thanks, Cx

Good luck, you will love it x

Hi, I am a nurse working in Perth.Try st John of god website- they have hospitals in subiaco and Murdoch, Ramsey health- one of their hospitals is undergoing a big expansion. Or try the public hospitals, royal Perth, Fremantle, sir Charles Gardner and rockingham. Good luck x

Hello, I was in exactly the same position as you just over two years ago. I have been in Australia 18 months today! I am also a nurse working in a icu in Perth and live in the suburb next to canning vale. If you need any advice then feel free to ask. you will need to get confirmation from the NMC re your registration status. This took a while for me to receive. Also try and apply to the AHPRA as soon as you are able as that can take a little while. Good luck x

Hi, I have just bought a house in thornlie and really like it here. Good transport links, big growth potential. Thornlie is a big suburb and some parts are nicer than others. Forest lakes estate is prob one of the nicest areas. Good luck with the move , C

I am so sorry for everything u have been through, I wish you all the love and luck possible for the future xxx

I can't make Monday unfortunately, going for lunch on friday if anyone is interested though x

Looking forward to the next one already x

We have been here for about ten weeks! It's great. Good luck to everyone moving over here x

All three look like good places to go to. What about the moon and sixpence as it looks as if it is quite big and that we should be able to get a seat there. I honestly don't mind tho because they all look good. What time shall we meet? 5ish? Cx
