Seriously though, if someone emigrated to Australia where they have an unemployment rate of a mere 5% and is unable to get a job in two years, does that not mean the person is doing something wrong? Things can definitely not be that bad? :confused:

A few months ago a friend of mine asked me to come over to her house as the Wanted Down Under team were filming an update on them about their move to Oz etc.

 

I had to laugh to myself. Talk about it all being staged. I had to come through the door bright and smily. (it took 3 attempts). Then we all sat around the table and we had to say

''Oh life is so great over here .. so much opportunity, the weather! the Austalians! So great for the kids .. etc..etc...''

 

They have been over here for 2 years now and the husband as still yet to get a job.

 

I don't actually come on here very often because I am too busy working 60 hours a week (same for my husband) just to make ends meet.

 

If I had my time again I would certainly not have emigrated. We are so much worse off here than in the UK.

 

I don't want to offend the ''Australian Lovers'' but this is how it is for us. The only reason why my friend did the film shoot is because they were getting paid. Funny that ...

You're absolutely right! Never mind these people who think Oz is a land of milk and honey. :skeptical:

You all heard the OP, get right to it at once! Withdraw all your lodged visa applications.....that way I can get a bloody case officer and I can join the suffering down under.:dull:

Thank you for the information, by the way. :biggrin:
