Pietie Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Hi allStill in SA. Investigating settling in ACT on Skills sponsorship on 176 or 475 visas. Still in early application stages. Hoping to write IELTS next month. Lots of research to do still.Family-wise - my wife, daughter and I will be moving. My son will probably finish his studies first.Reasons for leaving SA: Let's not go there.CheersGert & Lynne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieterK Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Welcome!Just one short note: ACT doesn't offer a 475 visa. The 475 is a regional visa, i.e. outside of the big cities, (except for Adelaide, go figure), and since ACT is basically just Canberra there's no "regional".

21yearsoutofrsa Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Adelaide was never a popular choice for immigrants. That's the reason for Adelaide been considered a "regional" area.It's becoming more popular now and lots of immigrant families love it, from reading the posts on this forum.

Pietie Posted January 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Thanks, all. Much appreciated.Thanks for the clarification, PieterK. I see you must be in the IT industry with the ACS assessment in your signature. Will probably touch you later for more info on ACS assessments.CheersGert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
