If you're not using a licensed professional, why are you paying money? Would you use a non-registered lawyer? Or unlicensed doctor?

If you are applying for 489 FS, your occupation must be on the SOL so I guess you need the points from sponsorship. Different states have different criteria also. What state(s) are you looking at? Which ones are sponsoring your occupation?

Do you have any idea on what state that does not have any nomination fee?

No, I'd have to google it. But I wouldn't be choosing a state by whether or not they have a fee.

Well, the state in question may not have much employment - or a climate you don't like - or housing is too expensive - or any number f other reasons

Get her some English lessons then have her try again for the test.

Re: 489 Visa Granted; Thanks for the help.

Hi Nairn,
QLD selected my application for 489 and they asked me to provide bank statement and statement of commitment that have been submitted and they gave me 60 days to submit fee and other docs. May I know is this application considered successful and will get 489 ? I am still confused on this process please advise.
How long it will take time to get solid confirmation

Hi everyone

I am waiting for allocating the CO and continuing my processing work as well. My question is about the life condition and situation people might have as a 489 visa holder. Are there any person who has experienced those circumstances? Please come and share

I've never had a 489 and know nothing about the IT market. Buderim is a suburb to the north of Brisbane, I doubt it has much of a need for IT specialists, most people from there wpuld commute to Brisbane. That kind of question is better asked in the main Australia forum.
