Welcome Jen. The start of a long road. Its all pretty self explanatory. The barbie is for gabbing about anything and everything. Immigration is.... well about immigration questions. If you post in the wrong forum, one of the mods will move it into the correct one so you are with like minded people. I mean, at which stage of the journey you are on and maybe finding siilar applicants to yourself.

Anyway, welcome, good luck and just ask.

Hi

Welcome to Expats

Thank you for replying!!!

Well the rain has started no doubt this thunder is on its way as well but thought whilst have 5 mins peace, (kids napping YAY) would sneak on net again think getting addicted to searching for australia on google!

Welcome to BE Jen.

We've got a great bunch of members here and there will always be someone around to help you out.

As Framac as already mentioned, the Barbie is for off-topic, chit-chat type of stuff, the main Australian forum is for Australian Lifestyle topics (schools, employment, culture, housing etc, etc) and the Immigration forum is for people to discuss experiences and issues related to the immigration process.

Hope the above helps. If you ever have any site related questions be sure to stop by Site Feedback and ask and we will only be too happy to help.

Sue

thank you for your help, loving this site! Jen x

Welcome Jen,

I would start at http://www.immi.gov.au/ and see if your case is straight forward than do it yourself otherwise there are bunch of great migration agents here in this forum, you could use one of them.
Dont know whoes call are u waiting for...but just take initiative n go for it!! Australia is wonderful n this whole visa stuff will take some time!
All the best!

Welcome Jen. Sue's pretty much covered it really so I just wanted to say hello

Welcome Jen, anything you need to know, just ask...it's hard to believe this time 6 months ago I didn't know where to start, and because of BE, I almost (alllllmost) feel like an expert! Or at least I like to think so!

Good Luck in the journey to Oz, we're all right there beside you!

thank you all for the replys!!!

it all seems so daunting and where to get best info from but i think on here seems to be really good!!

I asked my 4 yr old son if he would like to move he said yes but only in a greenhouse so will have to see what we can find!

Hi its from VisaBureau.com, thank you for advice as well x

I think I'm still waiting for them to phone me back too, it's been months now! lol If your case is straightforward, all u need is this forum to advise, if it's complicated then there are some fantastic agents on here who come highly recommended....George Lombard to name but one! (He's based in Sydney.)

lol thanks Jen, well wont think about them again then!!! hoping its fairly straight forward but if not will keep note of that name!

He pops onto the forum when he gets a chance, very nice chap! Can I ask, what is your occupation and your other halves, could help in giving you some initial advice as to who would be the best person to be the main visa applicant and what not....

Matt is a tiler (walls and floors) , i havent worked for 3 yrs as am a housewife to my two children. But not sure if would help was a bank clerk and before that a customer service advisor also with same bank before i finished. Also a qualified sewing machinist but if need to get job too all helps i suppose!

Matt was thinking Perth to live but looking seems Gold coast seems to get alot for job offers mentioned so will have to see with that too, we not to fussed!
