Emigration advice!!
Hi all,
My gf,child and I are considering emigrating from the uk to Australia (Queensland/Nsw preferably) and are in need of advice,I will state that it's only a pipe dream at the minute and are basically at the first steps,
I am a fully qualified gas engineer for British Gas and my gf is involved in admin/patient liason for nhs we also have a four year old boy,
So the advice I need is the following;
-how much will we earn on average?
-how easy is it to find a job?
-how easy is it to transfer qualifications?
-visa fees/type?
-is the cost of living to our average wage going to give us a good quality of life?
-should I go with savings and then find a job or find one before I go?
Hopefully you guys may shed some light on this as all I read is the bad points and seem to keep hitting a brick wall,
Thanks in advance!!

Thanks for your extremely helpful reply pal,
My partner posted them over a year ago and a lot has changed since and I'd hope things may have changed in the gas industry in oz

The world is drowning in LNG and prices are very low meaning that any future expansions are doubtful for the foreseeable future. So a 4th train at Gorgon, Woodside's floating LNG etc ain't going to happen
Good luck
