Guest Fat Boy Fat Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 Ask her if she is married to you or her parents.
ali Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 If your mother in law is still working as a nurse then she could try and secure sponsorship with a hospital for herself, they're shouting out for nurses in Oz at the moment. If she isn't, she could do a back to nursing course in the UK to update herself. To apply for PR in nursing you have to have worked so many hours in the last 12 - 18 months (sorry can't remember which) and go through a skills assessment. She would have to apply to the nursing board of whichever state you want to live in to get her licence to practice. There are also parent visas - Gollywobbler is our expert on these (and we've got a few members who are waiting), but it seems that these can be very expensive and also they dont' grant many per year (you also have to remember that it's not just people in the UK who are applying but people from all over the world). Hope this helps rather than confuses you. Ali
