I recently discovered this forum and am beginning to find this extremely useful. We are thinking of lodging our application under 475 for RSMS to WA.

Could some generous minded users of this forum answer my questions?

1. I am a CA qualfied Accountant aged 44 now and wife is 37 and we have two girls aged 6 and 2, does this mean it is too late to apply for RSMS 475 visa?

2. Could someone give me an estimate cost of living, reloation costs to a region in WA?

3. How are the job opportunities for Accountants in the regional WA?

4. How much money should I carry with me to WA to survive untile I find a job?


I would be extremely grateful to you hints and tips. Thanks in Advance

Bit confusing this one the RSMS is completely different to a 475 visa.

RSMS is a 119 or 857 depending if it is lodged offshore or onshore it is an employer sponsored PR visa

The 475 is a temporary regional visa sponsored by a state leading to PR after 2 years.

Which one do you mean and have you also looked at 175 and 176 visas.

There are several visas you might consider you need to check if you will qualify for any of them.

Have a good read of the links and the immi site as a whole. Note there will be changes in July for all of these visas, details are on the immi site and in the stickies I think.

Thanks rammygirl for enlightening me on this matter.

I am actully referring to the 475 is a temporary regional visa sponsored by a state leading to PR after 2 years. Sorry for misinterpreting is as a RSMS visa.

Appeciate if you or anyone with helpful mind can give some insight for me to make the right decision in my life.
