marazico Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Hello out there My wife and I (and the dog) are emigrating in Dec/Jan to Fremantle WA. (hopefully) I have a job and sponsorship already sorted through an old work colleague. (I'm a Planner) I can't for the life of me find my old Standard Grade results from 1993 Will I need these? They have no relation to the job or my experience. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bell123321 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 If you already have your 457 visa I can not see you needing your standard grade results more not as they have no relation to your job or experience. However I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marazico Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Thanks for the quick reply. The company I will be working for are in the process of applying for my visa (with a migration expert) I don't have the visa yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know you can for a fee get your old certificates if you do want them. Your need to know the exam board (possibly contact the education establishment to find out which exam board) and if you go on the exam board website there are often links to get new certificates. If the exam board doesn't exist any more, you can contact the modern equivalent e.g. NEAB are now AQA, London are now Edexcel. But I do not think your need them for an unrelated job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesnparry Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 From what I can remember, the visa application asked for 'post secondary education' qualifications. I didn't include my school results, just my qualifications pertinent to my profession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
