Have no idea where to start

[Xanna]

Hi all,

My husband and I are investigating the move to Australia. We have contacted Migrate to Oz and had to take a bit of a second look at our situation.

I had thought that we would be able to get a skilled worker visa based on my husband being a qualified aircraft maintenance engineering for the past 10 years. However, this is not the case. So moving on we would like to find a sponsoring employer. Anyone got any ideas of where to even start?

I am unsure of the cost of anything going that route, so really any advice would be great!

I appreciate your guidance and experiences.

Thanks @stefans

He only has the South African license. I think we will apply anyway and see how we fair.

Thank you so much for your efforts, it is greatly appreciated!
