Swapping SA license to QLD? HELP
 
Hi there

I've been reading threw loads of posts but still cant get my head around the way to get license swapped.

I've booked myself in to do the wiring rules exams threw peer in SA on 2nd march,
once its done. what happens? do i go to the office in Adelaide pay $350 to get my A class license for SA, then it takes 2 weeks to come then do I have to change this to a qld license in Brisbane and pay another $58 and this takes more time?

pls Can anyone confirm if this is correct
i'm really struggling for work and need to get a license asap or im on the boat back to the uk!

Hello All,

You are correct, as you have explained is how it all happens, the SA to Qld can take 28 days, i know i've just done it.

Regards

Hello All,

Yes you can, there is nothing further you need to do, the only reason to change it is that some firms only employ people with QLD licenses.

Regards

Kevin
