Re: Opening a bank account in Australia...

I've spoken to Firstdirect & they have no problem with me keeping my UK account but I'd assume you need an Oz account to pay your wages in & to pay your bills.

Re: Skilled Occupation List - X-Steel

I've had an offer on a 457 but this visa is very restrictive, I'd prefer not to be tied to the same company for 4 years, plus I'd have to pay school fees.

If I get in on a 175 I'm free to work for...

Re: Oz Or Canada

Is Canada just as complicated?

Re: Relocation Packages

I was offered a job on a 457 with 2 weeks temp accommodation.

The 457 just seems so tying to me, think I'm going to go down the 175 skilled route.

Skilled Occupation List - X-Steel

I'm currently working as an X-Steel CAD Draughtsman.

I can't find my occupation on the SOL.

Does this mean my skills are not in demand, or am i under a different heading.

Thanks in advance.
