Hazel Marriott Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Hi me and my husband and 9yr old daughter are thinking of moving to oz as our friend moved here last year and are really selling us the idea of a lifd in oz, we have not gone into full details of visa ect just a quick look up on internet. But my friend has told me that the job i do HOME CARING, is on the wanted list but i was wondering if anyone has heard of any care companyies that do the sponcered visa as this seems on first glace to be the quickest and more reliable (job wise) way to go. Any advice would be very welcome. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebourvellec Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 You should run your case past a Registered Migration Agent http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/_pdf/sol-schedule1-2.pdf This is the Skilled Occupation List, if your occupation is on there you will need to check your qualifications you hold are suitable. If your occupation is on CSOL Schedule 2 you will require an employer to sponsor you or State Sponsorship. At quick glance I can not see Home Caring on the list.

Sure, those are probably the requirements to get an Aged Care job - but they would apply for people already living here. You need to get a visa before you can apply for any Aged Care jobs and unfortunately no Carer-type occupations are listed as being required. There's clearly no shortage of people already here that can do that job so there's no need to import people specially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting a job isn't your main problem, getting the visa is the really big problem. Unfortunately it appears that this occupation does not qualify, if it is not on the list then not even having a willing sponsor can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
