Which is the best course to get PR in Australia?
You need to check the new SOL list introduced lately and actually (333411) Wall and floor tiler is included in the list. But I don't know what u mean by best course? If you are willing to go to Australia on student visa and then apply for PR be aware that the immigration departmental changed the laws and decoupled the two thing. Having 2 years in Australia as student doesn't alone qualify you to be PR. Now the emphasis is on the market driven immigration, so to be qualified you should meet one of the required skills at ur graduation date. Sills needed are presented now by the SOL check the link below. As well as currently, the DIAC is pushing forward employer sponsored applicants on the cost of independent ones. In other words they will reduce the quota for skill independent thus u got to be able to find a job or employer to sponsor you. Good luck
How much does it cost to study in Australia?
Julia, you made a statement which I am going to take you to task on shortly. But, it is very expensive to be an International student in Australia, we in Canada, are just a couple of bucks cheaper, but not by much mind you. Look Julia, if those crazy Australians accepted this Canuck, they will accept an attractive German girl, of course Australians accept europeans. Now I am going to take you to task, don't talk such rot, or listen to your friends feeding you untruths. You can get a landed immigrants visa, just as easy as the next person if you have the right credentials, like a certified profession. Your Australian friends make fun of you? Look I have been there Julia, have worked and lived over there, they don't make fun at people, they have fun with people. I have a number of Australian friends, that I am indebted to. Over the years they have been to my home in Montreal on vacation. great people. Just remember, Australia's settling roots are from Europeans. I am going to be totally honest with you, initially it isn't going to be a free ride, when you pull up stakes from some place you know, and go to the unknown, to live, it's very different from just going over there for a holiday. I wish you would have mentioned what you wanted to major in, guys here could have given you some firm advice. When you get back home, really sit down with a glass of Schnapps or a stein of beer, and really think at what you want to do, and in what direction.
