my hubby is cnc operator, they call it metal machinist in oz, there are loads of jobs in Brisbane for this trade, the trade was on the MODL list when we applied 2 years ago think its still on there now.

Re: cnc
Easier to get into Adelaide at the mo, due to 'skills shortage'... less points needed apparently! You have to promise to stay for a year or so, but after that you can move around if you like.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Re: cnc
You should be classifed as a "metal machinist 1st class" by the TRA.
It sounds like you're looking at an SIR visa, which is state specific. You would HAVE to stop in South Australia/Adelaide for 2 years (that may be extended to 3 years if the new citizenship laws go through, which looks probable) You may find that there are restictions placed on what you can do to earn your money etc. Once you have citizenship you are free to travel and settle anywhere in Australia.
If you can get 5 bonus points, for your partners skills, family ties or the A$1000,000 (about 44,000 quid) bond payment you would be able to apply for a "Skilled independent visa" and settle anywhere you choose with no restrictions on the job you can do.
We're about to go to the Southside/Pacific Highway corridoor in about 6 weeks, and the job market for Programmers & setter/operators seems quite bouyant. Try http://www.seek.com.au go through the online jobs search and they will send e-mail notification of matching vacancies. I assume they are nationwide, though I haven't tried them for anywhere other than South East Queensland.The average wages appear to be around A$ 55,000 - A$ 65,000 a year, which isn't fantastic, but not too bad. I did see one for A$72,000 though.
Good luck.

He has enough points for a STNI visa, which is permanent residency, but you have to live in the state that nominates you for 2 years

Re: cnc
I knew it was something like that. We just went the skilled independent route, so I wasn't sure of the finer details of the STNI. The extra points would be worth going for though, in my opinion, if only for the extra choices it gives you.
