Hi, Thanks for advise, problem is topping up here would just take to long! House sale etc time to do it in the UK working. If we was in Oz we could live off savings (from house equity) whereas we don't have that luxury in the UK at the moment. Now AMNAC skills test Standard ThreeThe applicant is assessed as meeting current Australian nursing and midwifery educational standards. Now my wife has a DiHe not a degree does this mean she cannot get AMNAC assessed as it states it needs equivalent to a degree? So can she not get assessed?

Thanks for your response 'LEB' some further Q's. What is the first thing my wife needs to do to get the ball rolling? In my head it is following:- 1: Sit ILETS (what is the cost of this?) 2: Apply to get skills assesed. 3: Submit EOI (What if your never invited to apply does this happen??) 4: Apply Visa 5: Get out the UK after all checks! 6: Once in Oz do bridge course to degree 7: Register APHRA? Am I correct?

Hi, We are looking to move to Oz my wife is a nurse although she cannot go as skilled (Needs to top to a degree this will be done in Oz) What is the way into Australia apparently we can apply for permanent residency as a family? Where do we start got that many acronyms I am going insane, ANMAC, APHRA, IMMI.GOV.AU :arghh::arghh: Please can someone give me a step by step process what to do please? Thanks,

2 last questions I promise:- Do we apply for permanent residency or APHRA first? Second question is the assessment and ILET sat in the UK? Is the assessment based on her nursing?

OK I am totally new to the process. equity in house would pay for the course in Oz will explore UK option. Thick question who sits the skills test and ILETS? how long does permanent residency take? 12-18mth?? Sorry for for the questions!!

The bridge course takes 3mth worst case I work wife doesn't and we live off savings. We have connections their family friends etc

Morning All, First time here. We have decided to take the plunge and move to Oz (NT or WA) due to existing family / connections there. My wife is a nurse but an DI HE (Diploma Higher Education) qualified, now we know about APHRA are only accepting nurses to degree standard so after speaking to APHRA and a few embassies we have deciphered the following please let me know if it is flawed! APHRA will refuse my wife on qualifications, and MAY offer a supervision period or a bridge course (£5k?) And on appeal may get one of the 2 solutions I said. OK so we can apply for permanent residency as my wife is classed as skilled being a nurse but cannot get APHRA until she has a degree. Plan is sell up move with kids (2 + 6mth) to Oz on a Permanent Residency based on her skill and then she does the bridge course whilst doing some say aux nurse work / care home work. I have no skill I am just an operations manager in a law firm (No degree etc) Does the above stack up or am I way off!? Thanks in advance!
