Hi,

For the skilled visa 190, I think the amount of required experience in the field of work is 3 years. Does this include years as an apprentice?

Thank you

It will depend on many factors such as occupation, points, State, etc.

Simply having an occupation on the list, does not guarantee that an invitation will be received.

NSW is the most difficult to receive an invite as it is the most popular.

Thank you for your reply.

I see. Can you tell me if there are any other visa options for them to get permanent residency in Australia please?

They are English, in their 20s, with no dependents. One is a Toolmaker and one is a Primary Teacher. They both have competent English (being English ;)).

They have a grandmother who is an Australian citizen,  uncles, aunties and cousins who are permanent residents and a mother (that's myself) who will soon be a permanent resident.

They don't want to take the risk of temporary working visas.

IT varies. But, they do need to be aware they do have to live in the sponsoring state. Have they checked which states are sponsoring? 

It looks like just South Australia.

Not bothered but NSW would be good.

Hi everyone,

My daughter and son in law wish to come to Australia on a 190 visa. Could you please tell me how long it takes for an expression of interest to result in an invitation to apply?

Hi,

We are a couple in our 40s and arrived here in July, so it has been a very stressful, exciting and busy time. We have been living in Sydney, but are moving to Shellharbour next week as we have visited a number of times and feel we will be happy there. It would be nice to meet some new people. If anyone would like to meet up, that would be great!

I'm also looking for any dance/fitness classes to go to e.g. Zumba, if anyone knows of any, as I haven't done any exercise classes since leaving the UK.

Happy Christmas

Leanne
