well i am a pom so my birth certificate is all i have to send due to been native

i was the dependent on my husband visa and i didn't have to do an ITLES test (189 visa)

you will need to get 60 points so here goes 25 points age 20 points IELTS but you must get an 8 in each section 10 points for you skill but you will need to sit a skills assessment 5 points if you have worked in you skill of 12 or more in Australia you could get sponsored by the state and that will give you another 5 points if you didn't work in your skill for 12 month is Australia I would say you are best looking at a 189 or a 190 visa but be quick before they make any changes.

hey kellie23 this might help you with booking your meds http://www.immi.gov.au/Help/Locations/Pages/United-Kingdom.aspx

yes i agree

well if you need any help with anything just sent me a PM i will be happy to help if i can.

haha you will love it. my only advise would be to live where you think is right not somewhere where you have family or friends. me and my husband traveled around most of the coast of Australia apart from the northern territory as there inst much up there, and we are moving to Perth as we found the weather to be much nice, warm but not humid.it is also very up and coming so thing are much newer. x

where about are you moving to? have you been to Australia before? i was in the same boat as you back in 2011 so we went on a working holiday visa to make sure that we wanted to make the permanent move. Maybe you should try that first?

yea we had that problem too, we just guessed but like i say we where never asked for the form

i have just look on your profile to see where you live you well be able to go to the same hospital we went to http://www.bridgewaterhospital.com/treatments/medmigration.html The service was great and they where very nice and professional x

Well we used an agent (Visa Bureau £2500 a little more expensive than others but had the best reviews) too as we both work full time didn't really have time to sort things out, also my husband wanted to get back to oz ASAP and doing it on your own takes longer due to having less knowledge. Like you said the others have said the reason they say this is to avoid disappointment. My agent told me that it would take up to 20 weeks to get my EOI back but it took six days. she also told me that it would take up to 12 weeks to get a CO once i had lodged my visa but it only took 4 weeks. Depending on how much of a rush you are in i would say to do you police and medical a couple of weeks after the visa has been lodged as this will speed things up by about 4 weeks. Our agent told us to wait until we have a CO in place because you have to enter Australia within 12 months of your medicals or police checks date which ever comes first, not the day your visa is granted.But after i explained that we where leaving as soon as pos she let us book our medicals and send off our police checks. Hope this helps. where are you from in the UK if you are near me i can send you some info on where we had our medicals http://www.acro.police.uk/police_certificates.aspx That is the web address for that documents that you need for your police checks.

yes that's correct but the next stage once you have lodge you visa its that part that takes longer waiting for you CO

Ok well a 190 has a much longer waiting time because 189 taake priority so it would work out better if he could get 8's on his IELT. x

hello i am going to be moving to yanchep in a few weeks is there anyone out there that lives around the area

We got ours on the 19 of dec husband fly's out a week on Friday
