Bossladyorigina:
Are you based in Australia?

Yes I am�

wellmax:
If you really know Duvie you will know CSL.
They have HD, DCL, CSL, CCL and two other coys

I remember Ceddi Services Ltd. Dami and Tony, Madam Pm�

wellmax:
Yes so much to learn from them. A great company I must agree. I worked with CSL so interfaced with all of them.

What's CSL?

jaxmand:
I worked for them too. I think duvie is a nice guy... My real G that year though we do fight ooo

If you know Duvie's key . He is the kindest from a DOD Alumni.

[quote author=wellmax post=71I 673947]Hmmm finally.

Worked for his company for some years. Difficult people to work with I must say.

Dafinone is good though. Still coming to the office at his old age.[/quote]I also worked with him and I wouldn't be what I am if not for them. Where you in audit?

I am a Nigerian qualified lawyer and live in Australia. Believe me there are lot of options even for overseas qualified lawyers as we are reffered to. Compliance, corporate governance, whistleblowing analyst, Corrections, social work, legal assistant or you can also apply to work with the various ombudsmen.

It not law as you see it in Naija but it draws on your legal knowledge which help you excel.

If however you are interested in litigation, then you have to go back to school for the priestly 11 which is divided into 14 or 15 units depending on the University and law school for 6 months.

Hello for the person asking about assessment for lawyers, its a very long process. You can only get a semi positive assessment if you attended unilorin or any of the very few naija universities yhat offer common law. You will then be advised on what courses to write in their uni. After passing the courses, you'll have to also do practical legal training as a lawyer or attend law school, pass after which you can get full assessment. Your years of work experience prior to this does not count.

Hello everyone! I have learnt a lot from this thread. Please I need your advice.
My fiance and I are getting married soon and we plan to process OZ PR. When he was in Nigeria,he got an offer from RObert Gordon University to do his BSC in Engineering but to start from year 3. After year 3 he was given his BSC cert which he went ahead to have a Masters in the Uk. I will like to know if he will be positively assessed by EA. He has over 10years work experience.

What accord does his degree fall under? Will he need to write a CDR?

Please help a sister

Go on EA website , check the various accord match your hubby's uni and graduation year to confirm which accord hd wld be classed under.

The only work experience to be recognised will be the years after his degree not the years before.

So what's ur exchange rate?

OzyMigrant:
Hello House,
Please I need an urgent help from people who are already in Australia. I am currently processing my 189 visa to Australia and I have been having hard time paying for my skill assessment with EA. I have all the money in Naira. Please if you know anyone wanting to send money to Nigeria, I can help them transfer the amount into their preferred Nigerian bank account while they help me transfer the equivalent to my friend’s Australian AUD account. Please this is urgent!
No amount is too small to start with. Please reach me on opeinmedia@gmail.com if interested.

@Malmo I stay in the northern surburb too.Meadow Heights precisely. We suppose hook up.

Hello all. This is my 9 month update.
We left Naija on the 30th of April 2015 via dubai courtesy IOM and arrived Melbourne on the 2nd of May 2015. We met Mayofikky another nairalander and her Family at the Airport. They were enroute Adelaide.
Got called for an Interview for a job I applied for while still in Naija on day 5. Two interviews and lots of phone calls to Naija for reference check, was told i was successful on day 10.
Started working on day 16th. Registered Son for Kinder . Meanwhile we went for a regional job fair on day two . We also did our centrelink and bank paperworks.

Salary is paid forthrightly for most people. We started house hunting towards the end of the month as agent needed reference from work and payslip as part of paperwork for character reference for house. We even got additional letter from our pastor. The fact that you have your money doesn't influence your getting a house.It your credit history and character reference that is key.

We moved from our friend's house who hosted us to a house a month after arrival.We were considered lucky as our host did not get a house for 6 months due to inability to quickly get a job.
Hubby started his masters at Unimelb in the 3rd month, so both kids being under 5 , started full-time daycare i.e $400 per week after govt rebate.

Luckily he got a job a job in a near entry role in his field after 4 months.Half bread is better than none.
We reviewed our finances and my commute time and family life balance. We decided I should start applying for part time jobs.
Luckily I applied and got a job for which over 2500 people applied. I was oneof the lucky 90 employed.
Less commute, half of the working hours of my previous job and same pay. It was a divine provision.

Lessons :God's grace and favor is key. You also need to be computer savvy. You are going to use the computer for everything including knowing where to get bus, train, food ,apply for job, benefits even house.
Police here are armed to the teeth, no sme sme.
Passing your driver test is more stressful than waiting for visa grant mail.
Australian meals are delicious, be prepared to change your palate.
Centrelink are slow to give but very swift to retrieve.
Aboo mi re oòo.

Hello Seniors,

How were u able to score 100 for the point check to rent house.@bosslady mo etc

@ doyen06 , check ur mail. I no wan seun wahala

How many years work experience do have cos from my little knowledge I know ACS ur assessing body will deduct 2 years from ur years of experience.
I think ur process wld probably be obtain transcript which is just a phone call away having attended uni in uk, register for,ielts, get assessed by ACS, when u have positive outcome from IELTS and ACS, apply for EOI, Apply for proof of functional English from wife's sec school or higher institution, Receive invite, supply all docs required, get grant.

The entire process should take about 6 months.

Doyen06.

You need to marry this site. www.immi.gov.au.

You need to check the SOL and CSOl list to check if ur job is in demand. off the cuff, if your wife has teaching experience, she might stand a chance.
Sorry for not being able to give you more details, I used an agent cos I know I do not have the patience and time to peruse document, apply for assessment etc.

Backpackers ke with 2 children. Mba.
Luckily I have a friend who has volunteered to host us. We go try no stay too long.

Hello all,

All students should check student housing Australia for accommodation.

@ Ferdimako , $9000 annually.

@Doyen10, ur question was not really clear . Please explain yourself better.

ferdimako:
again..any points from 3months of experience?

Okay upload. No he has 5 years work experience post the qualification he used.

izykvision0:
Nice one. Did u guys frontload docs before applying for the PR? Did ur hubby claim work exp. points? How long did u wait from application to grant?

We frontloaded all except pcc and med. Yes hubby claimed work experience point. 3 months.

Omo am happy about all the Australian gist I am hearing. This Australia sweet oo even though I never touch down. Hubby applied for a Masters in University of Melbourne, preparatory to touch down and guess what cos we have the pr , he was given a CSP ( Common wealth supported place). So he get to pay less than 9k for a course that he normally would have paid 36k dollars for.

izykvision0:
Infact i regret it. Requesting to be re-sent via courier. And of course at an additional fee.

Dude ,

Have it sent to a friend's address in Uk. The friend should then scan to you. U'll save time and cost.

[quote author=mrnilobrawn post=31315188][/quote]its IOM. goggle it.

Bosslady. cool chuffed for ya!

Was the discount from IOM much?

Yeah. Same flight on wakanow and travelstart = +N420,000. Cheapest flight, different airline, same date and destination= +215,000

Hello,

izykvision0:
