Yeah should still be fine with 60 points, just be cautious of overclaiming, even if it's an honest mistake the chances are you'll lose your $3,520 application charge!

Ok so the next step.... Sorting out a technical interview through VETASSESS - that seems to be a challenge at the moment so I know what I'm doing with that.

 

My points break down as I see it!

 

Age 18-24: 25 points

Scored 8 or higher in the IELTS: 20 points

Worked in my trade for 7 years: 15 points

Assessment for my trade: 10 points

 

Total: 70??

 

Am I missing something or is that correct?? As I've mentioned at the beginning my girlfriend is Australian, if that's any help!

*Edit - Knew I'd forget something....If I have cocked it up and need any other extra points, state sponsorship is an idea, unfortunately Queensland don't want Joiners (bastards).... The others do, I'll look as to which others but they do. Do I actually have to live in that state?? Is that law binding??

Hi Jack,

The 7 years work experience seems a bit off to me. You should only count post qualification experience and if you're only 22 it's probably more like 3 years max. What qualification do you hold and when did you obtain it?

All the best,
