Depending on what he does he may need a licence to contract in Australia though. 

IT contractor, so no licence as far as I know.

He would have no restriction on working. 

Have you got a company willing to sponsor you? You can not just apply without that. 

Are you aware of the issues surrounding temp visas? 

I haven't had a TSS offer, no. We were looking for TSS roles for him, but think perhaps I'll have more luck. We are waiting on a 190/189 visa but it's taking years so far, so we just wanted to get out there faster.  Yes we know the TSS isn't perfect, but it's a stepping stone, hopefully! It would be more attractive if he could work contracting while I'm in an employed role because I could take something with a smaller salary if he could contract.

Hi there. 

I’m considering applying for TSS, and I will include my partner in my application.

He works as a contractor in the U.K. so I’m wondering, on my TSS visa, will he be able to work as a contractor? Or will he have to take an employee job?

Thanks all.

Hello,

Looking to apply for the 190 in Tasmania with a positive skills assessment. I see that Marketing Manager is now on their list, and in this article it says 'no ceiling' but I've seen differing opinions. 

"Tasmania government committed to processing nomination for subclass 489/190 visas for no fee.  Also, the government confirmed there would be no nomination ceilings applicable to state nominations received from 1 July 2018 and that students with no employment offers will be able to access the Tasmanian Skilled Occupations lists which had further occupations added on 6 August 2018 including: 

131112            Sales and Marketing Manager" Source: https://www.easymigrate.com/new-occupations-added-state-lists-tasmania-south-australia/

Can anyone tell me a little more about the 190 situation in Tas? I run my own business and would want to continue to do so over there, so I wouldn't fit under the 'job offer' category - or would they consider my own business as job offer enough??

Thanks

Hi, we have had an EOI in for 189 and 190. Just found out it's expired. 

Can anyone tell me what this means for waiting times. When we re-submit do we lose our place in the queue or does it carry on as if you've been waiting the whole time?

I have 5 more points to add soon.

Thanks.
