Thank you, I will defiantly look into what I might be able to do with my law degree and Im going to get in touch with an agent. Thanks for the advice!

Just checked his occupation is on the CSOL list! under other sports coach and instructor. so thats good.

Well we will defiantly try! Were going to try everything we can, he's just got his UEFA B licence which is a really high licence to have and is highly sought after so he's doing everything he can to make himself stand out, but if non of this works, is there other options available to be able to stay after we have completed our WHV. Studying or is there anything else, I looked at his brother sponsoring him but his brother lives in Perth so I don't think he is able to.

Thanks for the advice, Im defiantly going to speak with a migration agent, so many questions in my head its so confusing haha! Thanks!

Hi Sammy, thanks for the reply. My boyfriend does have a lot of experience with his sports coaching, he actually works part time for a coaching company along his University studies and he manages his own childrens football team on a volunteer basis and also volunteers in primary schools occasionally to help with PE sessions, so hopefully all this will be a help to him. As for his occupation being on the SOL lists, if it isn'ton any list but somebody offered him a sponsored job whilst we are over there, would this work or not? We've been to australia quite a bit because his brother moved to Perth a few years ago, and whilst we were there we were having a look at what jobs were on offer in his occupation and there was a lot! So i don't think would have trouble finding work in his profession its just the sponsorship bit that might be slightly harder. Thanks.

So me and my boyfriend or both 21 and live in England. We will finish University next year and the plan is to move to Australia. This has bee the plan all along and we have been saving for a long time for this and so are very prepared. Basically once we have finished our degree next year were wanting to get a WHV and move over to Melbourne in hope of getting sponsored and staying there permanently. My boyfriend has studied sport and has all the relevant licenses within football coaching and so wants to work as a soccer coach when we move to Melbourne. I will have a Law degree but to be honest Im not quite sure on what I want to do. We are hoping it will be my boyfriend with his soccer coaching that might get a sponsorship. Can anyone advise me on this or let me know if there are any other ways of staying permanently after our WHV, we are willing to do whatever, we don't want to come back once we get there! Thank you.
