Re: WHV Working In Australia
Thank you All for your advice and words of caution.
Trust me when I say, I am not taking anything for granted or expect anything other than to successfully comlete my course and have learned a new trade, and one, at the present time, is in high demand.
When I said about contacting Employers after the course, that was what I was told/advised to do by a fully qualified, fully licensed Migration Agent. I mean, it can't hurt, and i I am unsucessful, then I will simply return to the Uk, hopefully get a job in my new trade and get a years or so experienced behind me, and then try again for a Skills Visa thingymybob

Re: Working In Australia

Good Luck!!
You can do it, well informed & skilled UK citizen that you are and with a relative Down Under, the chances are even better to ford any & all changes that may occur....you will directly be able to apply for PR if it is a 2 year long course, if not, you will have to work out the details with your Agent & Sister!

work exp waiver
the recent work exp reqmnt can be waived if the 2 year Australian Qualification is completed fairly recently (check how much on DIAC website under minimum basic requirments for skilled migration) prior to the date of PR visa application..

Re: work exp waiver
What PR visa do you believe somebody can apply for after completing a brick laying course?

Re: Working In Australia
op seems to be well informed and may already have skills on the SOL, and is only wishing to augment or satisfy the minimal PR reqmnts by way of 2 yr study or 1 yr study + 1 yr apprenticeship, i guess the thread has spun enough already and it's best for o.p to decide based on the forum's and his near and dear's advice...unsubscribing now...thanks

Re: Working In Australia
wrong call Bermudashorts - we'll let the o.p be the best judge of that - my writing ability is superior to yours and the analytical one might be even more so - i have many standardized test scores (at first attempt) to back my claim, as well of 10 to 15 posts that attracted viewership through responses written by me which were encouraging/ informative to the o.p - so why don't you please kiss your dogma goodbye ? thanks...

What possibly gives you the impression that your writing ability is superior to Bermudashorts'? Based on your inability to use capital letters/spell/use punctuation correctly? So far, I am yet to see you give someone correct advice. Just because people have viewed your comments, it doesn't make them correct. You have assessed your posts as informative/encouraging - I've seen little evidence of anyone else seeing them as such. I agree with Bermudashorts' assessment.

Good luck to the OP, you seem to have it worked out so thread closed.
