Hi Aarti

 

Did you submit? Any update? What occupation are you applying under? 

Hi Charlotte,

Not yet... I'm a teacher and have decided to move to regional Queensland but in order to do this I need to register with Queensland college of teachers.. so waiting for my registration now. 

How is yours going? I am now with an agent - so helpful

Hi. I am just starting to apply for my registration. When adding teaching experience, the website keeps changing the dates that I add to it for each of my posts by a day or two. I've tried it in chrome and Microsoft edge. Any ideas? Did this happen with anyone else?

You can move once you get the 191, but while applying for it you are bound by the original 491 conditions

Great thank you 

Ok so the way I'm understanding this now... the new 491 visa is a provisional visa - you stay and work for 3 years in the region and then apply for permanent residency under the 191 visa. With the 191 visa, do we know yet if you have to stay in that region or can move after that?

FYI - The 489 visa has now finsibed and has been replaced by the 491 visa. You cannot apply for the 489 anymore.

Oh right... thank you.. but when I look online 489 is still coming up. Where can I get the info about which visas are still valid. Thanks

Hi all,

I am about to lodge my eoi and I only have 80 points, which means i wont be able to get the 189. I really want to move to Queensland but they are not sponsoring the 190 visa at the moment. I just wanted some advice... is it better to get a 489 visa and live in regional QLD and then apply for the 887 for PR. or would it be better to go for 190 for another state e.g. NSW so I have the PR?

Thank you for your help

QLD are not accepting 190 visa at the moment. Anyone know when this may change.?

Yep! You can do both in one EOI

Great thank you 

Can you send off for both in one eoi? Yes that's what I thought about the 189

Hi all.

I am about to send my eoi. I have 80 points without nomination and 85 with. Is it worth going for the 189 as I only would have 80 points or am i better off with the 190? Thank you

Thank you so much

Hi all. Can anyone give me some good websites (apart from the main pearsons one of course) where I can find some legitimate practice questions and tests. Thank you in advance 

Hey. I submitted yesterday. No verification needed as they aren't copies.. just pdfs of the original. 

Anyone applied for the skills assessment on the new online system yet. Any ideas how long this new system takes to process? 

Thank you - I have sent some info via your website :)

Can anyone recommend agents in the UK please? There are so many online and I understand the best have the MARA certificate, but i just wanted to ask if anyone has an agent, then which ones are reliable. Also how much should I expect to pay for an agent? Thank you for your help in advance. 

Thank you. My Ielts test is booked for this Saturday. Wish me luck 

Hi all. Quick question I have been reading and if you are a UK citizen you don't need to take an English test however i read somewhere that to gain more points it is advisable to do so. Is this true and also which English test is better to take. Thank you

I was told this too by my uni as it had been 20 years. The immigration team told me a copy of the course booklet would suffice along with a letter from the uni stating that the transcript is no longer available but that the course covered...

Hope that helps, good luck 

Thank you that really helps

Also my undergraduate university have said they no longer have my degree transcripts as it was over 10 years ago. What can I do? 

Sorry when I meant skills assessment..  I meant the English test. Not for the job.

Hi

 I'm just in the process of doing my skills assessment. Waiting for transcripts. Just to make sure... I'm a UK citizen.. have been all my life, I don't need a skills test do I? Please could someone conform. Thank you  

Hi all. I'm really new at this I'm applying for an expression of interest for the skulls independent visa. On the form, it is asking for my education. I have a PGCE for my teaching qualification. It is a postgraduate but not a masters. Which heading would I put it under? Thank you
