Im picking your brains now.
It looks like we may have to go for the regional state sponsorship unless we can get sponsorship from an employer.
I just want to check ive got my facts right, for the regional state sponsorship as long as your skills are on the skills list (sol) then you can apply for the temp 475 with state sponosrship?
Oh is getting greyer ever day at the moment as he puts all his info together to send the engineers australia, fingers crossed he gets a positve assessment to kick start operation oz.

Sorry can't help you on the state sponsored visas Mandy.

My history is with 457 temp and RSMS (Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme) visas.

However can you go for the 176 rather than 475 ?
The 176 is PR from day one.

Bix, we arnt sure if we can get skilled sponosrship 176. WE are hoping to ask questions when we go to Leeds for the oz expo.
We are just so confused :blink: . It was so much easier when we thought the oz army where bringing us out. WE are hoping that a company we have been in touch with will offer the 475 sponsorship to get us out and then apply for PR for us.
Our biggest problem is OH may only be assessed as a Mechanical Engineer technologist, which we know is not on the skilled list for Vic but not sure about other states.
Ideally we want a permanent visa.

Mandy - the best money I ever paid out was to the migration specialist company we used - Go Matilda. All the research, knowledge etc was down to them and I just did what they asked and we got the best visa for us :thumbsup:
