best and first place to start is to check the Australian department of immigration and citizenship web site here http://www.immi.gov.au/ to find which visa you should apply for and all the information and conditions that go along with it,start there and anything you don't understand ask on here and someone will b sure to help ye along...:thumbup:

With all due respect if you are baffled by www.immi.gov.au , I would suggest you speak to a registered migration agent, at least to find the best way forward.

Nurses usually get into Oz ok.

Also look at the nursing forum:-
