Hi all,
I am new to this site and wondered if anyone had any advice: My Husband is a bricklayer by trade and is applying for a Regional Sponsored 489 Visa for Queensland. We are using an immigration agent.
We are currently trying to draft all of the employer statements and gather evidence to show his employment / self-employment. (and trying to get this completed before Bricklayer gets taken off the list again!!)
The agent has told us that, in addition to detailing fully his qualification (NVQ) and what he did to obtain that, we need to expand on his training/apprenticeship and detail who showed him how to do what on site when he first trained. This is very difficult as he trained 22 years ago (with a Company that no longer exists although we do have the ex-director's contact details and he has agreed to sign a declaration), my Husband says that back in those days you just took your trowel and got on with it. You didn't have someone explaining everything step-by-step. We are in a position where we are just going to have to make it all up!
Any tradies having the same issue?? Did you describe the training in lots of detail?
Thanks!
