I have a disabled daughter, and one of her support workers, who is absolutely brilliant with her in every respect, is in Oz as a de facto on a 457 visa and her partner now wants to "get her off his" visa. She loves her work and is keen to stay, and from my point of view I'm desperate for her to stay given the fantastic progress my daughter is making with her help.
Can anybody help with visa advice?
Hi,
I have a friend who went as a 'disabilitiy services officer' which is the closest thing to a carer and is on the CSOL.
However it is very hard to go under any kind of carer role as they require a certificate 5 diploma and managery type experience which most UK carers don't have. Luckily my friend was a senior support worker and did assessments etc so was ok but they ask for a lot.
The roles she would be looking at are: disability services officer and residential care officer not sure who is sponsoring them but they both require a level 5 diploma. Hope this helps.
