Son now wants to join us

Hi

We ahve been in Aus for 7 great months now. Our 25 year old and his wife have now decided that they would like to come over here.

They have no transfereble skill for skills visa how else can he get across here. Is a working vis the only option?

Any advice most welcome

Steve

Without any skills (so skilled sponsored not an option), the other main option is remaining relative normally. And if either of them have any living parents, siblings or non-dependent children, then they don't qualify for that either.

They could get a student visa, and if there lucky and pick the right course it could give them PR after the 2yrs.
