    For a virus with a 99.8% recovery rate we just need to get on with life. The fear mongering by mainstream media has been atrocious! It’s really a mild virus. What about all these hundreds of people who have tested positive in hotel quarantine on return back into Perth? How many have died or been hospitalised??...Zero! The most terrifying thing about this virus is the way Governments are behaving!

    I don't think the criteria is unclear and the online application page is still active... https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Citi/pathways-processes/Application-fees-forms-and-appeals/Citizenship-online-applications

    I don't see anything happening in the WA economy to suggest the housing market is going to pick up anytime soon. The population is still shrinking and more skilled workers are leaving Perth than there are moving in. The Perth of just now is a sign of the next 5 years in my opinion. The boom created a false economy, banks were throwing out cash and people were blind sighted and getting carried away like the good times were never going to end. I bought a house in the peak but I am quite enjoying the more 'normal' Perth now.

    I applied 10th May and test date isn't until 21st September so there seems to be around a 4 month wait in Perth. All good though

    <p><p>Hi, I came across your post and was just wondering if having an HND hindered you at all when applying for jobs over there. I'm a civil engineer with 6 years experience working on civil projects and also have an HND as opposed to a degree. I am flying over around April to find work but I am just worried that employers won't recognise it as a qualification and therefore not employ me even though I have good professional experience. Any advice would be great.</p></p>

    <p>Yeh, I have heard that Perth is booming. Seems to be a lot of Civil work related to mining also. Building roads in for all the mining traffic etc.</p>

    <p>If you have just applied for WA SS you should hear back by the middle of May as my agent advised there is a 6 week processing time then you can get your visa in straight away.</p>

    <p>I'm just waiting to hear back from VETASSESS which should be within the next 4 weeks hopefully then I lodge my WA SS application. Time is tight but if all goes to plan I should be in Oz by next summer.</p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>Cheers</p>

    <p>Alright Chris,</p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>I hope your right about the IELTS but I'm seriously considering driving to London for the IELTS exams being held on the 16th April as if worst case scenario I don't get the required mark for the writing section then time is my enemy if I want to resit it early May.</p>

    <p> </p>

    <p>I noticed you are a Construction Project Manager. I work in the same field. I am a Civil Engineer but work as a Site Sub agent on a large highways project. I need to get my visa through the route of Civil Engineering Technician as I only have an HND which is a pain on the a**e.</p>

    <p>Well as you may land in WA before me you could be the man to seek advice from in regard to finding employment <img src="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile.png" alt=":)" srcset="<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" /></p>
