2 months to go and redundancy!!
How's about this for irony. Went for medicals 3 weeks ago. Hopefully they've been in Adelaide at least 2 weeks. Going by everyone else( timeline etc) should get pre grant etc next couple of weeks(skilled designated area sponsored 139). House all but sold, contract's to be signed etc. If all goes to plan fly out to WA beginning May. Tonite my current boss tells me he might have to make me redundant next week!!! This is the bloody 3rd time this has happened to me!! So if anyone has any doubts that they are doing the wrong thing beleive me at this moment in time this country can kiss my rear end. All I wanted was at least another month of work. All my wife and I can do is laugh! It's just the icing on the cake. All the endowment's are cashed in so the money side is not a problem but how do you ask someone for a job for about 2 months!! 3 months sat around here with no imterest in the house garden or the weather is gonna send me stir crazy!! And my bloody parents crying in our ears!!Well at least it can only get better!!!!

Re: 2 months to go and redundancy!!
Good stuff. Put in for voluntary just to make sure. Also see if you can spin it out till you are ready.....
Otherwise you could stack shelves in tesco for a month or so...
Seriously though you should think about gretting some extra skills/training or something that will enhance your emplyment chances in Oz.
Good Luck

PS I took voluntary redundancy at Christmas, but cus I had no visa then I got another job, After 2 weeks of starting, visa was granted...Needless to say I'll be handing in my notice soon!!

Why not go over to Oz on an ETA and you can get your current skills tested ? You're allowed 3 months study on an ETA and you can check out the housing etc.

Might have got a job. Have to see someone on Monday. Just a driving job but at least it could keep the back peg moving
