Hello, moving from South Yorkshire to Australia
Hello, i would just like to introduce myself. My name is Donna, i im 35 yrs young and i live nr Doncaster in South Yorkshire with my husband and 2 children aged 14 and 6.
We have been looking at emigrating to Australia for yrs and have only now just sought the advice we need in order to go ahead with it-it appears such a complex process, and an expensive one at that!
My husband is an engineer and i have worked within care for most of my working life but we have been advised that we would need to have a state goverment sponsored nomination as his skill is not in demamd or on the critical list but it is on the skills occupation list-(SOL), visa (subclass 176). we have been told this could take upto 12-15 months, so you never know we may see some of you there.
Thanks for reading x:
