Default Im i the Wrong Age 45

Can anyone please help?

Looking at the Australia Skilled Immigration Points Calculator, it asks if you are under 45. I'm 45 just gone, when i fill in the points calculator and put that im over 45, it automatically tells me SORRY.

Dose this rule me out, i'm a Transport Shift Manager with Corus, i'm classed as a middle manager.

For general skilled migration, yes, being 45 does rule you out. But it's not clear whether you'd have had the points anyway.

Employer nominated migration is still possible, but you need to find an Australian employer keen to hire you and sponsor for a visa. And there are skill requirements for this visa (in addition) too.

Hi,
My husband was 47 when he came over on an employer sponsored visa (457) and had a job offer.
Keep searching.

Carl - get some advice - you can apply in your 45th year but not sure what that means exactly. Not sure if you have to lodge your application before your birthday or ???? If that is the case there may be other options as per replies here.
