Dentist applying for 189. should I use an agent?
donaldouk replied to Cazwilkins's topic in Visa Chat
Hi Cazwilkins, I'm not sure how far you in with the application. My wife is a dentist and we went through the process last year. Make sure you do a skill assessment. Our agent (we used just for one session) told us we didn't need to apply for the skill assessment. In the end we ended up paying twice. -
Same here, I was well surprised that my passport arrived today, only took 3 weeks.

Tbh there's not that much out there for both. IMO. On xbox one Ryse was fun, titabfall is good, killer instinct also good. But the best game has to be plant v zombies. Few exclusives coming up that looks good. Overkill, halo, quantum break. Ps4 is also good but definitely over hyped. Knack, the last of us and infamous all good. If I had to choose I would say xbox, as the interface seem a lot more organised. Kinect also has cool features like sign you in When you walk in the room, and open Skype without a touch of a button.

It should be fine. The power is the same just the plug need converting. I used to buy ps4 games from uk as it can be cheaper as Bromney mentioned, they all works fine no prob. (Knack, kill zone) although i found dick smith are doing great deals lately. Like, the last of us for $50 and I just ordered destiny for the same price. The only prob that I found on ps4 is that you can't change psn region, you still be buying stuff on uk £. At current exchange rate that's not the cheapest option. Unless you setup another account. Xb1 is fine though weird.

31 moved with my wife 26. I was travelling around oz when I was 24 with my mates. Loved it. Returned to 2 years ago to a coastal town in vic, 1st year did loads of touristy stuff, loved it, then now feel settled and enjoying it. :wink:

Well now we will be self employed (associate), so we might have to self manage it. Just have to wait for the company to reply. They just mentioned something about superannuation entitlement on resignation. Didn't say whether it's for leaving oz, or didn't visa.

What about the transition period from visa 457 to PR. we just got granted last friday and handed in the notice today. Would be nice to get the money back and start again.

Hi all, I have just received my Grant email this morning. Booyah!! Over the moon. I wish everyone luck on the visa. I guess I have uploaded all the docs and medical done 4-5 months ago for my previous app. Good luck everybody.

Thanks.

Hi all just want to join this page, My situation, I already applied once in Oct 2013, we were missed informed by our agent that we do not need a australia dental council cert, and APHRA is enough for my wife. been in Oz for 2 years now on visa 457. After we paid all the fees and medical, itelts, and police clearance. The application was was rejected as expected. :mad: we tried to get a refund on the ground of misinformed by a register agent, but no luck. at the same time we applied for the ADC and that took 6 months from getting certified reference from UK (original not scanned image), then waiting for them to process. I thought APHRA was bad. Anyway rant over, we had a new EOI last week and submitted 12th May. Hopefully this time go straight through. I wonder if we get allocated quicker because its all there. :wink: Good luck everybody!

Thanks for the reply Rupert, i don't want to complicate things, but here's the situation:- My wife is sponsored by a dental agency who look for dental jobs for you around Australia. She is working for a practice who is currently looking to sell. So the agency will lose out when we buy and no longer paying them any monthly fee. So that's ENS out of the question? So skilled migration might be a better route. Visa 190? How long is the timeframe for that?

Hi guys, i have few questions. My wife and I are currently on a 457 visa. My wife is sponsored as a dentist. We have been here 6 months. We have an opportunity to buy the practice she is working in. We are just wondering what is the quickest way we can get residency? And get a business loan. :err::err: I thought I try here first to get an idea before I contact an agent. I have repeated this post because the title is more suited. Cheers.

So I can't ship electrical stuff from amazon? I thought as long as the seller is amazon.co.uk it will be fine. :daydreaming: Where can I buy electrical goods with competitive price, that ship to oz? Any recommendation? I got my eye on a new 8series Samsung tv. :biggrin: I can't even find it in the oz shops yet let alone cheaper. Does other amazon ship electrical to?

I'm due to head to oz soon. (well hopefully, had a retina detachment the day before I meant to leave in may. So fingers crossed it stay attached by end of July.) :jimlad: Anyway, back to the question. Look like we will have to kit out the rental home. I've noticed there isn't many choices to buy stuff in oz, places like the good guys and Dick smith are well over priced, compared to other online store in oz. but it's even cheaper on amazon, especially .co.es, also I notice there is a fixed price for delivery on amazon, custom tax is $900 limit. So if I order loads of the stuff online and send it no more than $900 a time, I don't need to pay custom tax. is that correct? I will just have to change the plugs and won't be covered by the warranty. But is this a popular by many POMs? :cool:
