SIR visa or Business Visa - Your advise pls
Hi,
Though this is my very first post here I have been following the very useful posts on the forum for sometime now.
Our problem may sound a bit complex!!. My husband is the prime applicant and he has over 15 years experience is Sales & Marketing in Airline and travel field.
However, we are eligeable only for a SIR visa but we would like to go to Victoria for personal reasons. We understand that we can't apply to Victoria without a job offer. We see that most of the job sites require people with residency so we have not applied for any jobs.
We are now thinking about the possibility of starting a small business in Victoria. We don't own a business at the moment but we have the funds.
So we seek your expert advise on the visa type and some thoughts to solve this mystery!!!
Many thanks in advance
Take care
Mari

Personally I think you'd be better off asking in the Immigration forum... Perhaps one of the registered MARA agents that hang out there might give you a quick rundown on your options...
