We are (Myself & Wife) going to send our application (136-MODL/Offshore) tomorrow (16/08/2006). Anyone else in the same boat??

MrPowell

We (Myself & Partner) sent our application (Defacto) yesterday (14/08/06).

Good luck with yours! Where are you off to? We're going to Perth (hopefully).

Hi
We will be sending ours by end of the month. Hopefully heading to Gold Coast, as Perth too expensive!
What trade are you? We are bricklayer and teacher.

Actually,for me Oz is a big country... Believe me, no Idea of the destination ...
But, Thinking abt Melbourne, b'se couple of my friends live there...

I am a Systems Engineer & my wife is a Hairdresser

MrPowell

I'm in IT myself and the missus looks after our little girl. Bricklayers are in heavy demand throughout Aus so you shouldn't have any worries there, and teachers are in demand throughout the world, so that's your partner covered too!

MrPowell

Melbourne is my favourite place in Aus, but my partners family are all in Perth so will be better for our girl to see the family and play with the "rellies" kids. We also have a house in Perth so it makes sense for us to go there!

Hi - sent our 136 MODL (General Electrician) off on 11 Aug - trying to work out when to book medicals/police checks estimating around Dec/Jan. Looking to live in Q'land. O/H wants to work in mines as money is brill! Visited oz last Oct and fell in love with place. Currently reading through maze of licences needed for sparks when we get out there. Good luck everyone.

Can I join this thread please?! I'm non-MODL but since I'm probably
the only one I might as well tag myself on to the bottom of this one.

We're also not MODL - what are you going for McG? It's the defacto for us.

Hi there

Our application was lodged on 3rd August. 136 MODL - hubby is a roof slater and tiler. We are hoping to go to Perth. Should be interesting to see how our timescales match up.
