hi, the best thing is to do a points test online and take it from there. is your PR visa no longer valid?

hi, i would try to go it alone if you have enough points. if you don't then you may have to swallow your pride and get in touch with your uncle to sound him out. what trade are you in? is it on the MODL?

i'm a vehicle body builder. and i think it is.? my mate who i did my apprenticeship with can get me a job in adelaide no worries..i just got to get me there. :(

Re: can any one answer me this one plz
 

Hi, can you not get your mate to see if there are any companies in adelaide that will sponser you? you need to check the MODL to see if you can get those extra points for sure. you really need to see how many points you have before you go any further.

Now I may be way off base here, and I definatly dont know the ins and outs..


however I thought there was a returning PR option?

If you have held a PR before, then I think you can use that somehow??

Might be worth checking it out.....I may be wrong but its something that rings a bell...

If one had PR 5 years ago and it's expired, then unless you have kept strong ties with Australia it's likely gone for good:

If you were married when you got a visa last time (or in an eligible de-facto relationship) and you did not declare your spouse, then that may still haunt you now. Get some good professional advice.
