Skills Assess time limit??
Hi everyone
Just a quickie...when i originally took and passed my skills assessment, it had an expiry date of two years. By the time i arrive in Oz it will have two months validity left....What will this mean in realistic terms
Will i still be able to get a job in my field of work or, heaven forbid, am i going to have to go through the whole assessment AGAIN
Anyone know?

If there are state registration requirements, have you looked to see if you can register in your intended state/territory before you leave?
