Grandson from UK
Hi, can i please ask if my mother who has lived in australia for over 30 years sponsor or nominate her grandson, he's 24 & from the UK
Thanks in advance |
Re: Grandson from UK
No. But if he wants to live and work in Australia then he can apply for a subclass 417 Working Holiday visa to get him started.

Thanks for the reply, say he did do the above visa, what options would he have after that?

He, at 24 should be doing his own research. Australian Government Department of Immigration and Border Protection is where he should be starting. |

Re: Grandson from UK
He's looking to stay long term. I'm an Australian citizen also but I'm currently living in the UK

Re: Grandson from UK
No, he was born well before I got citizenship. I was going to sponsor both brothers years ago, they were only teenagers, but back then they thought there friends were more important. They have regretted this decision.

Re: Grandson from UK
What is his occupation?
|
Re: Grandson from UK
He's just a handy man tbh. He's got tickets here in the UK for several jobs. Not sure if that would suffice in australia
|
Re: Grandson from UK
He can train in a profession he's interested in then in a few years come on a skilled visa. Unfortunately he's not going to qualify for a skilled visa as a handyman.
What tickets does he have? |
Re: Grandson from UK
Looks like he'd be better spending his time getting qualifications and experience in a visa friendly occupation before he starts thinking about heading over for more time out. Now is a good time to be getting into further education if he's quick.

Re: Grandson from UK
At the moment, unless he meets an Australian girl and they fall in love, there isn't any long term option for him. Family sponsorship on its own doesn't exist. The nearest is the 489 visa, but all this does is add extra points to a skilled applicant. The applicant would still need an occupation on the skilled list.
If he want to move to Oz, he is going to need to look at retraining, though I would strongly advise he chose something he would be happy about even if it doesn't lead to a path to Australia as the skilled occupation lists change regularly with occupations added and removed. |
