HOW DO WE GET TO WORK IN OZ?
Hi
We are perplexed!!! We desperately would love to spend a year living & working in Australia before we get too old! My partner, 38, is a Building Surveyor with over 15 years experience & I am 33 & a Civilian Employee for the Police - we have tried looking at the Immigration websites for Australia but its quite confusing. Does anyone have any info with regards to how to go abouts getting a years working visa if there is such a thing?
Thanks in advance

Working Holiday Visa's are only for 18-30 year olds I'm afraid.
Best off looking at the Immigration website and maybe see if your OH's occupation is in demand

You will have to apply for a visa whether Temporary or Permanent, in whatever skills you have that are required. They take time to come through and cost a fair amount of money just to use for working here for a year. Working Holiday Visas are only available for 30 and under.
