Lparker15 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hi, I've been looking to emigrate to queensland in a similar position as yourself. After much research I have found out that occupation 'childcare group leader' is on the regional sponsorship occupation list therefore if you can get an employer in a regional area to sponsor you, you can apply for this visa. I contacted a agent in australia for more information and this was their reply 'The occupation of childcare group leader is on the 187 list. It is a skill level 2 meaning you need a relevant level Diploma to meet the criteria. The 187 is a permanent visa option if you have an employer willing to nominate you for a position in regional Australia and you can meet the criteria. The position can only be in regional Australia (regional Australia does not include the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Newcastle, Sydney, Wollongong or Melbourne). · The employee must be nominated by an employer for a full time ongoing position with the business working in a Regional Area, which is offered for at least 2 years. · The employer must have an office in the regional area of Australia you will be nominated to work in. · It is a condition of this visa that the employee remain employed in the regional area you are nominated to work in for a minimum of two years from the date the visa is granted. If not, DIAC has the ability to cancel the visa. · The employer would have to do some labour market testing to demonstrate that no suitable Australian can be found for the position, we will explain the criteria in more detail if you proceed. · There is no training criteria for the employer to meet for this visa subclass, however, if the nominating business is approved as a 457 sponsor they will need to show that they have met the training criteria. · If the employer is prepared to nominate for a Subclass 187 visa, the employee should be able to secure Australian permanent residency and ultimately Australian citizenship. · A skills assessment will not be required for the nominated role. · We would need to demonstrate that the position is a genuine position and that you would be employed in the role. Please call me to discuss further if you can find an employer in a regional area willing to help then we can discuss the position and skills required. -- Seamus Taaffe - Principal FCA ICAA Grad Cert Australian Immigration Law & Practice MARN 0901684 Australia Here We Come Pty Ltd Level 1 376 Punt Road South Yarra Victoria 3141 Australia PO Box 9406 South Yarra Victoria 3141 Australia P 1300 887 818 or + 61 3 9573 5200 F + 61 3 9573 5299 M 0419 360 210 W http://www.australiaherewecome.com.au | Meet the Team » Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swimmy Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Thank you for your reply. Do you know if anywhere in Western Australia does the sponsorship? My partner is from Mandurah and i was hoping to return to that area. Many thanks Swimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks Swimmy As far as I know all of Western Australia is classed as a regional area so as long as you can get an employer to sponsor you, you will be able to apply for the visa. Maybe send your CV to the local childcare centres and ask if they do sponsorship. There is an agency based over there called Randstad Education Australia and they deal with childcare vacancys and some of them willing to sponsor.

VERYSTORMY Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 You have to ask yourself the likelihood of an employer waiting many months with a vacancy they need to fill while a 187 is processed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lparker15 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Just a quick update Swimmy, I have had a response from Randstad education and they have advised that they do have sponsorship roles in regional areas and they have asked for a copy of my CV, so maybe something for you to look into.
