DaveAnClaire Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Hi everyone, We are looking to emigrate to Australia and have contacted a migration company who have told us we would need to apply for a 489 visa in the NT. My husband is a floor layer and his job isn't on the main skilled list which is why they have recommended this. From what I gather if we go over on this visa we have stay in Darwin for 2 years but then are free to move anywhere. we had never considered moving to Darwin and from reading up about it not sure it is somewhere I would want to live. Could anyone give us advice on making the move if sponsored by a company as I've seen a few places offering this in the Melbourne or Perth area. Is it correct that you still need to go through the same application once there? also are there any floor layers on here and if yes how do you find the work and wages? thanks Claire:wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatandKel Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hi Claire, Sorry can not help you with any info about visa but if your husband can lay carpet, vinyl both domestic and commercial, kardean product, laminate and his work is of high quality he will not have any trouble getting work in Australia. Most layers in Australia sub-contract to shops, don't know how that works with the visa though may have to get a sponsor (not sure) Hope this helps if you need any more info would be glad to help. Cheers, Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
