gareth and lisa Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Hi Does anyone know if the South Australia SMP List has been released yet. Thanks We have just managed to apply online for state sponsorship for SA.
gaz n family Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 There is a long running thread for all of us waiting for SA to release, come and join us, we are all talking and sharing rumors and tails of the SMP.

dooodi Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 where do you have this information from? SA representative in London
gareth and lisa Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 we have logged on tonight and filled in an online application for state sponsorship for SA. If it has let us do that what are people waiting for?? Lisa
gaz n family Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 most of us have applied, those on the interim list have, and many like myself have received sponsorship. But when lodging the main 176 visa application you are only Cat 3 until the SMP is released. Some individulas trade/skills are not on the interim list so are having to wait for the SMP release before they can apply for State Sponsorship.
gaz n family Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 SA representative in London I sent her an email last week on the SMP update, she didnt reply, dispite knowing she had opened my email about 1 hours after sending it.

Ok many thanks so if nurses are on the SMP we will move into the relevant category?? It was strange as we were originally planning WA and there webite has been closed for 6 months not even to look at for the skilled sponsorship part and didnt go live for over a week when the SMP finally came out. Therefore we didnt look about applying as thought SA would be the same reading posts on here. Hope i have made sense, many thanks for the info. Lisa
gaz n family Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 Not sure if you saw my post yesterday, but in case you didnt, come and join us on the WE ARE STILL WAITING thread here. http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/migrat...ng-sa-smp.html We were the same, WA was our first choice (nothing really other than it is the place we knew more about and have really good friends there) but got fed up with waiting and heard about the SA interim list so decided to go that way. Glad we did as my trade was removed off the WA SMP. To be honest, i would sweep the roads, or clean the public loos in any state if it got me down under and out of here. I dont look much about the medical profession as it am not one, but i am very suprised nurse is not on the WA SMP, i thought everyone needed nurses down under.

Lisa Is your nurse skill on the interim list? right, so if it is, you can apply, once you received sponsorship you can then lodge the 176 visa application with DIAC. But it will remain in Cat 3. However, if then the SMP is released and your skill is on their SMP (even if they have reached this years limit so not accepting any more, but you got in before this cut off) then your visa application will jump to cat 2. i dont know if they do it automatically, or you have to inform someone. Please understand i am no expert, i can only go on what i know or what i read off the internet, so if all the above is wrong then i am sorry, but it is the theory i and several others are working to.
Boesman Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 I have asked this somewhere else and have yet to receive an answer. If I am on the SA interim list and apply for SS, can I just pack up and leave after living the required two years in SA? We really wanna go to Perth, but I don't have the 7 years experience uuurrrgggg! :eek:

Your moral obligation to SA asks you to reside in their State for 2 years, of course they are hoping if you have settled after these 2 years you will continue to stay and add to the economy etc. However you will be free to reside where ever you wish should you decide to move on to WA after. Good luck.
