Hi,

I completed my Masters from University of Reading . I got admission into Queen Mary London, Strathclyde Uni , Manchester , Salford , Loughborough , and Reading . I choose Reading as it was best for studying Robotics and Cybernetics.

Study Overseas Ltd located just outside Paddington , were my consultants and they help you out with all your educational choices and requirements for no charge .

You can contact them and they could easily narrow down and secure the Uni admissions .

Cheers

I have been granted Permanent Residency under the old rules Before July 2012 . Will it affect my PR in anyway in the future when renewing for RRV or for applying for Citizenship.

Cheers

I think you need to stay and work in Australia to be eligible to apply for PR. Or you need to get your Skills assessed and if you meet the required points , you can apply directly ( Independantly or through Sponsorship)

After PR, you can stay and work permanently and later apply for Citizenship after meeting the time criteria.

Visa 175 is a Skilled Independant Migrant Permanent residency visa

It allows you to :Work, Study and Live in Australia Permanently .

You can Apply for Citizenship after 2 years of Residency in Australia

You are entitled to certain benefits after fulfilling the time criteria
