can anyone give me some advice!!!!

it isn't about me honestly!!!! but you probably think oh yeah!!!

we are trying to talk our friend into applying for permanent migration...
she's a nurse like me and a couple of years ago, driving to work the morning after a heavy duty session, was stopped by police doing random checks (christmas time) and found to be over the limit!!!!

it nearly finished her off!!! she's a real good lass, and believe me has punished herself for a long long time about it!!! she's getting upset now and we are just talking about it!

would she get in to australia with this conviction?

she was banned from driving for one year and given a corking fine!!!

she didn't lose her job and the then, UKCC, didn't punish her for it, just kept it on record!!!!

any information would be greatly appreciated!!!

She has nothing to worry about re applying for Australia.

A single drink drive conviction is not likely to cause any problems, provided there were no aggravating circumstances and it's declared on the application form.

hi honeybob ,

just to let your friend know that when i applied to gain a 136 skilled visa for oz i put down my drink drive on the forms and it did not stop me from getting the visa granted ,infact just in the process of selling our house and hope to be in perth before the end of the year.

so tell your mate to keep her chin up!!!
