Advice on PR visa & employer nomination
Could anyone please offer some advice?
I have applied for the skills assessment to the AIQS as a Chartered Quantity Surveyor and have been told by them that I will receive a positive assessment in about 3 weeks. I then plan to apply for a PR visa under the skilled independant category as I currently have 115 points.Does anyone know if the pass mark has ever gone above 115 or likely to do so in the next year? As this could take about 1 year is it possible to get sponsored by an OZ company while I wait for the visa. If so would I apply for two different visas or could a temporary residence visa be changed to a PR visa. I have been informed by a recruitment agency in OZ that if I visit there could be a chance of sponsorship, how would this affect my PR visa? Can medical & poilce checks be carried out before they are requsted to speed up the process? I had a minor conviction for criminal damage (too much grog!) 12 years ago which was a 30 pound fine, would this have an effect on the visa? I am hoping to apply soon so any advice or experiences you can share would be greatly appreciated. Neil |

Hi Neil,
If you find an employer to sponsor you, please let me know and I can advise. Effectively you are dealing with two separate applications. cheers George Lombard www.austimmigration.com.au Neil17 wrote in message <[email protected]>... >Could anyone please offer some advice? > >I have applied for the skills assessment to the AIQS as a Chartered Quantity >Surveyor and have been told by them that I will receive a positive assessment in >about 3 weeks. > >I then plan to apply for a PR visa under the skilled independant category as I >currently have 115 points.Does anyone know if the pass mark has ever gone above 115 >or likely to do so in the next year? > >As this could take about 1 year is it possible to get sponsored by an OZ company >while I wait for the visa.

Re: Advice on PR visa & employer nomination
Does it mean that "employer-sponsored nomination" has a greater chance of success?
