Guest Guest9973 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Hi Lil It's a big question you are asking. You might want to have a look through the old posts in this part of the forum (South Australia).Most answers and discussion are still good and current info. Don't forget that hubby who is a Joiner will have to get a license to work here have a look at OCBA - Licensing A lot of people don't realise they have to have licences and I'm sure agents are not telling their clients! Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hop over to "pomsinadelaide.com" where I'm sure you'll get loads of info regarding your work, etc. Don't want to contradict Tyke, as he could be right - but I understood you only need to get a licence if you are going to be self-employed. If you are an employee with a building company, then you didn't need one as the company would be licenced. They would employ you based on your experience and qualifications. Sorry Tyke, if I have misunderstood it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Tyke, if I have misunderstood it. No worries- I'm fairly sure you need a full license to do the work if you are employed as well. My mate is head of property at a school and would not take a recently arrived Pom plumber on as he was not licensed. I could still be wrong though.
