Just noticed my fat fingers have stuck a W in requirements and I can't see a way to edit!

Hi. After an elongated visa process due to COVID, we got our 190PR visas last December and we are heading over to activate in a couple of weeks. Because it took 2.5years from lodging to grant and 4 years all in from starting the whole process we went off the idea and got on with life in the UK. Part of that was me leaving my job (the skill used for the visa) and starting a business in an unrelated industry. We are still leaning towards life in the UK but have swung towards Oz recently (especially with the awful weather here) and think our minds will be swayed further when we head out there. My question is - is there a requirement (i.e do they check?) to get a job related to the skill used to get the visa - moral or otherwise? I don't really want to go back to my old industry now. Thanks Daz

Hi, I am looking for some advice as to what to put in the education history section of the EOI regarding my AQFIII certificate I attained through a skills assessment with Vetassess. Should it go under AQF Certificate III or 'other qualification or award recognised by assessing authority'? Also, whichever it is I presume country would be Australia and institution would be Vetassess with their registered address as campus? End date will be the date on the AQFIII certificate but when would the start date be? The date of the skills assessment technical interview? The date the whole skills assessment process was started? Or something else? Or does it even matter as long as end date is when the qualification was granted? I hope somebody with prior experience of this (and preferably someone who has gone on to receive an invite) can shed some light on this? Any help is much appreciated! Thanks Daz
