xxlornaxx Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 For permanent visa you need to have his skills assessed before you apply for visa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungo Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Yes you will need to get skills assessed, through TRA or whomever is the designated skills assessor. Have you been to their website and had a look? You can get some useful tips from a forum, but I really don't think it can guided you through the process, so if you are stumped, I would have to recommend that you engage a migrationa agent to walk you through the process.

njchamp Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 Thank you ...I can't seem to find anyone to chat with that's actually had to have an assessment, the TRA site is good but don't really know what they are expecting from some one who has NO legal qualifications on paper as it still says about providing that kind of document ...I can feel our dreams being pulled out from under us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Experience can substitute for qualifications. A Bungo says, I would speak to a good migration agent such as Go Matilda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(it's nephew and family )so not parents or anyone immediate x if you have money to burn, go to a migration agent or just continue the research yourself, their is plenty of information on here and the government websites http://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Work cant help with the TRA but the EOI and visa application is simple enough, to do your self.

In this case it is not a wise idea. In basic cases it is fine to do a visa yourself. But if there is a complication, professional advice must be sought. For example, did you know there are literally HUNDREDS of new regulations introduced per year on this. Outside the professional sites used by RMA's and legal people there is no chance of even learning what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
