It's been a while since I applied, but at the time the requirement for full time was 20 hours+ per week, so you should be fine ( unless it's changed ). I had to come on a 457 visa as I didn't have...

Re: Anyone taking their car to Australia

Had the second replacement done last Friday, so only about 3 weeks for it to arrive in Perth. I have to say the customer service was excellent and although they made a mistake, they were upfront and...

Re: Phones and Contracts?

Completely agree. Also the international calls include mobiles, which most other plans don't. Brilliant. :)

Re: Child and youth Mental Health

Sorry, don't know anything about that area. In my experience ( WA ) child and adolescent services are not as advanced as in the UK, especially community services. Things are improving ( I've been...

Re: Anyone taking their car to Australia

Re: ENS (856) visa......cause for optimism?

Sounds like you're almost there. I would be calling your case officer tomorrow ( or today). I called mine the moment I got the name and he was great.

We had our new meds, bloods and xrays done in...

Re: ENS (856) visa......cause for optimism?

Hope you get a case officer soon. Just a word of caution - we came to Perth on a 457 visa and also got sponsored for ENS shortly after (I work for the Health Dept too), thinking that we could use...

Re: 457 meds for PR application?

We lodged our application before meds were done ( I was applying for ENS - not sure if that makes a difference ). Good luck with it all.

Re: Importing Cars

Child anchor points are compulsary in WA ( not sure about other states ). They can be a complete pain in the arse to fit as well if you don't have a standard / Oz model car. I brought over my beetle...

Re: 457 meds for PR application?

I came out on a 457 and then transferred to ENS ( I'm in WA ). Couldn't use the same medicals even though they were only a few months old. Queried this with the case officer, but they wouldn't accept...

Re: Hello

Glad you're not looking after my kids - what a pissy attitude. Why not listen to the advice you're given and be grateful. It could help you ( and save money ) in the long run.

Re: should we try another part of Australia?

If hes back by about 4.30pm, then he's pretty lucky. Make the most of it. Most people I know ( in varied professions ) are lucky to be back by 6.30pm.

Re: Directions to Princess Margaret Hospital?
