curlytot Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Hi I've been a governess in rural oz for 5 months now and am wondering if anyone has heard of the govie being sponsored to stay here. Ive looked at the 457 temp work visa and the 187 regional sponsored visa but as my job title is In Home Care Educator, I don't know what criteria i fit into. I'm a qualified teacher in the UK but my qual is not recognised in oz as its for college students. Also, I am in an isolated place and really want to stay out here, the work is needed as people just aren't willing to travel out here. Any help or advice would be most appriciated. thanks :smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blossom Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 No, I don't believe there is an option for you, but you could always check with a good agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senna Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Hi, I'm just wondering if you had any luck with this?

Willing to be proved wrong but I can't imagine that being a governess on a station would qualify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
