Re: Australian Racism

Still can't understand how people can be allowed to drive with stickers on their cars or(more usually ) Utes, that say "**** off we're full". Would NOT be acceptable in the UK....

Re: Cost of living being a nurse perth wa

$75,000-85 isn't much money in Perth to be honest, though it does sound a lot, especially if convert it to sterling. Perth is very expensive. Expect to pay nearly $3dollars for a cucumber, $5 for a...

Re: hi i'm new and need some visa advice

To be honest the occupation you have qualifications/experience in would be very difficult to use to work/emigrate overseas.

Re: Nurse moving to aus

You don't have enough experience for a permanent visa and it would be difficult for you to get a 457 visa. If I was you I would get a "working holiday visa" and come out on that. Google it. Join an...

Re: Training in uk or oz?

Re: transfer from visa 457 to PR (visa 175)
