Spider Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Hello everyone,So far this site is awesome and really helpful! Thanks to people willing to share info and stories people are getting support where needed without having to beg!My boyfriend and I are form joburg, been together five and a half years and starting to investigate putting our applications in for aus...we are tired of the long fight this side of the world and its time we try something new and adventurous...Scary though, many scary questions loom about employment, which city and all that jazz...Well everyone, a big hello and we look forward to meeting you all on the other side one day!!

Spider Posted August 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Hi All,Well, some of the questions may seem a bit silly, but ja...To ensure we on the right track...we first send qualifications to authorities (i.e. vetassess and APS)After results, if good, send all paperwork for VISA (136) including the assessment reults to Oz for processing. If we want to go together, do we send our VISA app in together? I did reading on Partner Migration but we both here starting at same point...Also, on downloading the various forms, there are SO many that i'm worried i miss something or include what i don't need to, so does someone have a list or something saying, these forms ... must be sent?Most people seem to go on a 136, is this best?

Miss Piggy Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 A big welcome! This forum helped me alot when I had to go trough the whole visa process and helping me to settle in Aus. I would say 136 is probably the way to go. Hope to see you soon in Ozland! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajay Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 Hi Chandi,I'm here on a 457 (sponsored by an employer) so I'm not familiar with the 136 -but i know that there are quite a lot of others on this site that are. Also, check out www.immi.gov.au for more information - it's really a good site and gives heaps of information.Good Luck!Ajay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
