Nwebies
Hi everyone. We are new to this site but it looks great and everyone seems really friendly and helpful. I'm sure we will be logging on loads with questions of our own and letting you know how we are getting along. We currently live in London suburbs with 3 kids who are 6months, 6 and 10. Hoping to visit oz between feb and April to have a good look around as don't really know where we want to settle. Thinking of somewhere not too far from sydney. Any tips on where to look would come in handy.
We are just at the stage of completing the TRA skills assesment form - dreading it. It sounds like it takes ages just to get it filled out and sent off!!
Hubby is electrical contractor and we are hoping to go on sponsored skills visa.

Ian has all his city and guilds qualifications but as he did this so many years ago he can't find certs (great start!). Has anybody else had this problem and if so where can we get duplicates from. Any other tips on completing this form would also be very much appreciated.
Hello & Welcome........ we have done the TRA thing & failed & now are resubmitting.......
RE: the C&G Certs, you could try contacting the City & Guilds People, as they may be able to supply copies.......

Re: Nwebies
Hi and welcome I only joined the site in October and it is really useful but as you have already been warned it is terribly addictive, think i could type as fast as any secretary now! should really come with a health warning when you sign up! I have found many of my questions and queries made cleare. Good luck we are just going through the paperwork like you waiting for other people to send the things i need. Good luck Chris
