Hi all.

http://www.immi.gov.au/skillexpos/ex...ed-workers.htm

The above expo ( which is on the DIMA website and therefore is presumably organised by DIMA ) indicates that you have to register online prior to attending. Does anyone know if this really is the case ?

Thanks.

Hi,
I dont think you need to register as tickets are purchased at the door on the day.Registering is only required if you want to be sent a reminder email.We were wondering the same thing before we went last year!
We went to the Expo at Earls Court last October and got some good info there so its well worth going.

We'll just turn up, then. Thanks.

( It says to allow up to an hour to register ! )

there is another one later in the month, but its not an official one (i.e. run by the government) instead its run by an employment agency, and that one is open to everyone, and yes its £10 on the door

the one which you refer to is the one i registered for, i havent heard anything from them yet but, this is what was in my email

"Your completed application form has been received. Your details will be considered and if you meet our requirements you will be invited to attend this expo. Details of the venue will be provided on the invitation.

If you do not meet our requirements you will receive an email that will provide advice on other visa options."

as such you dont even know where it is unless they tell you, apparantly they dont send out emails until 10 days before the event

hi i am a bit new to this but this is my first post:

I registered on the web site for the expo over six months ago and i sent them an email and asked about the same question (an invite) last week .

the reply was only come if you are invited and the invite is for you only not your partner ,and will be sent out by email end of september ?

well in fairness that was only yesterday, so give em a couple of days into next week, i know that some people who registered for the london one ave received emails in the last few days, but that expo is 4-5 days sooner

Pretty sure without registering you will not get in. DIMA will send you an email to register at time - without that invite you will not get in.

Anyone interested in an EXPO meetup? Maybe would could wear some special colour or carry something which would identify British Expat Members?

Just for a bit of fun??

My sister registered a few weeks ago and received her invitation last week. It is only for her and she must arrive within a specified 15 minute time slot. She has to bring certain documentation with her but I can't remember what exactly. She may not bring uninvited guests with her so I think it's a "no" for just turning up on the day. Why not see if you can still register now.

There is another expo going to Manchester which is available - I think that's in November and I understand you can just turn up at that one.
