Mariek Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Hi all, We're in the process of applying for visa's and my husband is a Pipefitter. The job description category he falls into on Vetassess is 'Air Conditioning & Mechanical Services Plumber' but he only has a Level 2 certificate. My question is does anyone know if Level 2 is acceptable for this category if he can prove post employment experience? He has at least 5 years evidence. Has anyone else got a similar background and got their invitation? - please tell me yes :wink: Also if anyone has managed to obtain a visa did you use an agent and if so anyone you could recommend? Our other option would be for him to state 'Plumber General' as job title perhaps? Would really appreciate your help. Marie & Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Sorry i cant help as the rules have changed loads since we applied, so im bumping your post up and hopefully someone will be along soon who has answers for you. A heads up re -Plumbers ,, Look into State Licencing for once your here as Plumbers and Electricians seem to have lots more hoops to jump through than most trades and this can slow down securing a job.

Cal x Hi Cal Many thanks for your message, greatly appreciated! Basically we've been going around in circles for a few weeks now trying to find the right Skill section to apply for. My husband is a pipe fitter and welder by trade and we thought the pipe fitting part would have come under plumbing but we've since learnt it will come under Metal Fabricator and Boilermaker in Australian terms. Just need to get the endless amount of documents together now! Thanks again, Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
