Re: VICTORIA STATE SPONSORED APPLICATIONS

My agent told me that they had it all in hand but I'm still concerned. I've mailed them to ask for a confirmation on their strategy for my state sponsorship application.

Re: VICTORIA STATE SPONSORED APPLICATIONS

Re: has the recession put you off going?

The recession hasnt put us off mostly because we only have one chance at emigrating as I'm 45 in 2010 and thereafter won't have any way of getting a permanent visa.

Re: buying a car

On a similar note:

When we get to Oz eventually I was wondering what to expect in relation to car expenses

Road tax?
Insurance?
Diesel/Petrol cost?
Yearly MOT? or similar?

Thanks

Re: Age limit for visa 45; a query...

Yes, my agent also confirmed that the age limit only applies up till the time of lodgement of the visa application. I must have just missunderstood what he meant. :)

Re: VICTORIA STATE SPONSORED APPLICATIONS

Eek that's not good. I've not even started the Skills Assessment yet and we need to be done and dusted before I'm 45 in June 2010. Might be tight!
