yeah i know that i think there is a TSS now but he said he has 4yrs so presume i would be similar he started his process 6mths to 12mths ago so probably using old terminology

the director i spoke to said 457 > 4yr visa i think he is on with a view to changing this as soon as he can. not sure on the finer details yet its all very initial. she turns 16 in January so her final year starts in September here in the UK. The wife is looking or trying to look into schools etc. The wife has been a stay at home mum for the last god knows how many years as i have been freelance for the last 6 earning a reasonable fee. But by training and trade she is a chef and bar manager. you mention an average salary ? what number should she be trying for or do i just need to negotiate upwards ? BTW thanks for the reply i was still reading the update threads

firstly thanks for a great forum and soooo much information i thought i would say hello and introduce myself, and no it's not blind date with Cilla Black from the 80's. Im sure you have all read these before but here goes, Currently being approached by an old director of mine for an engineers role in Brisbane.Initial thoughts and call, HR has made contact and said they will be in touch. The thing is i am 45 the good lady is 43, kids 15,13,9. Eldest daughter is about to start her final GCSE year this September so this adds a new dimension to it. To move her or leave her with Grandparents to finish final year ? How id you all make these choices or did you have younger kids when you went to the sunshine ? Initial things mentioned was flights visas 6 weeks or so paid accommodation till we sort out a place starting figures mentioned 120K+ The fact he called me after his first day in his new office shows he is keen to get me in his new team. With 3 kids in tow would this afford the schools, clubs and activities whilst being able to live? thanks again and off to read MORE stuff
