ARTC query
Since joining this site i have read about ARTC's which i was not told about by the tra. Do you require one for all licences ( i will be nsw - hopefully!!) Are you only able to apply once you have a visa number? Any help would be great thanks!!

i`m in the process of filling in the artc application as we speak
you need the following for the application
question
1 tra file ref no
2 australian address
3 residential status
visa subclass
although i did read last week that a sparky had got his artc prior to leaving the uk
i emailed the tra
( its the same place that did your tra assessemnt for migration )
and they have confirmed that you can apply prior to arriving in aus but that they didnt recommend it as if further information / an interview was required i couldnt attend
i`ll try and dig the email out for you

Found out yesterday that you can apply for a licence once you have the TRA classification (ARTC cert) plus have attended a course and passed an exam on the Oz wiring rules. Well that's here in South Australia anyway.
It's took me a year to figure that out, so don't ask me about other states, cos I don't know
