Hey Guys,

Just done and sent ARTC off from UK. OH Sparky too. I have included everything again in ARTC that i did in TRA but with updated work reference. Si is a subby. I have also included visa stuff and original copy of TRA pass and letter that came with it. Made it all decision ready. it was delivered to Melbourne on the 15th September so 10 days in tomorrow, god it takes me back to the TRA wait. bloody nightmare cos without the cert you dont get to work! Dont think its as bad as the visa!!

Well will let you know, lorna if you pm me your email i'll send you the contents sheet for it or anything else you may need.

Nozzys good luck with it. i know of a website you can do your Bluecard on too for $80ish, you can work in Perth or Qld with it. if youwant the link both of you pm me. it only works out about $20 more than going to a centre and it's all done before you get there, more convienient for us.

Thanks bab will pm you, kids are 16 months and 3, hubby is a mechanic he has got a job in maroochydore so maybe buderim, mountain creek area as ive heard there are some good schools, we are staying at the nevana villa for 2 months till something else comes take a look at cotton tree real estate, we can get the visas as long as we go to new zealand and re enter oz to validate them, i know its a big risk so hopefully visas come before we go, if not looks like we are having a holiday in new zealand.

Thanks very much for info think more stressed about artc than we were for TRA. Suppose just going to have to put everything possible in. Our agent said not to put private jobs in tra as it would confuse the ozzies but think will put the lot in artc coz if we fail this we are stuffed. And seen a post about someone failing it!

Thanks Lorna

Thats my main concern, have worked in just about every field of electrical engineering and some! during last 24 years including senior management, my biggest fear is them saying sorry we dont recognise these qualifications after spending £20k getting there, dont mind doing odd training course but will not go back to college at my age (old) to get an ozzie qualification, annoying thing is there regs are derived from the IEE !!!
Finger crossed for all march sparkies

Hi everyone things are moving again with our little thread nice to hear some good news for our marchies. My mum is still having a bad time at the moment and Im trying to stay focused on our move (cancelled it last time when I lost my brother and am not doing it again) Ive found a school for Sophie now just going to enroll her its St Marys in Cairns its a Catholic school (we are not Catholic but I think it sounds a good school). There is also a holiday village near the school where I think we will book into for our first month Cairns Gateway resort not too highly priced and the location is perfect next door to the school. So we can look for rentals and be near the family too. Ive been sorting out finances today aswell if the house doesnt sell we can have a 5 month payment break so that should hopefully get us some time to get validated etc.Neil will have to return if it doesnt sell by march. Thats all from me for now there is so many things to think off one thing leads to so many others. Has anyone thought about life insurance are you keeping existing policies for a while or looking for new ?
