Goal Aus Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Hi, Need help from an experienced migration agent here. My wife is currently on 457 and I am the dependent. With recent changes in rules to apply for pr after completing two years, we are not certain whether we will be eligible to apply for pr so I am thinking to enroll in an automotive technician course. I always wanted to get into this field and this gives me another reason. My simple query is will I still be eligible for skilled migration (186 or 190 or even 489 if necessary) like any other international student if I complete a two years diploma followed by JRP or experience?

VERYSTORMY Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Yes, as long as you qualify on the other aspects such as age and that the occupation is still eligible. But it will be very expensive as you will be an international student. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goal Aus Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Thanks for your help mate. I did some research and it says the study has to be for 92 weeks. Hopefully the occupation stays in demand and pr is still easier with 60 points. You think there are chances of state nomination if the points are less?
