jack lemon Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Hi, if I go to Australia in 2014 on a 457 visa, I will have 2 years experience as a mental health nurse, following this if I have worked for the same employer in Australia for 1 year I will have a total of 3 years experience. Can I then apply for a 190 visa? I cant apply now for PR as I am short of points, but after 3 years experience I can then claim an extra 5 points for one year in Australia and 5 points for state sponsorship resulting in me having enough points.

Rupert Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 If you meet the criteria, which you seem to have a good grasp of, then you can apply... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is unlikely that the same Regulations and points system will still be in effect by 2015 when you are looking at applying for PR. The Subclass 190 visa may not even exist by then and may have been replaced by something completely different, as we have seen in the past. It is very difficult to make such long term plans based on an ever changing Australian visa system. On the bright side, nursing has traditionally been a good occupation for migration.
