475 to PR

[chalkyhill]

If you come into oz on a state sponsored 475 how easy is it to gain PR?

[Welshtone]

Very easy as long as you do not reside in a non regional area, live in a regional area or areas for a total of at least 2 years and have worked work full-time (35 hours per week minimum - can add hours together for 2 part-time jobs held the same time) for at least 12 months. Australian Police clearance required with application, generally no new health clearances required.
