Let me share my little experience in Tasmania. I came to this country last year November, Tasmania is a good place to live especially to grow up children. if you are the kind of person like me that hate traffic this might be the best place for you, low population and lovely people. No stress here like other part of the country because of the low population, the weather here is a bit cold and weather changes to different state nearly every hour that is, you cant predict the weather. Some people move to Tasmania mainly because of pr it is very easy here than most places in Australia. Once you work full time for a year, work six months in your field or study here for two years you can apply. One of the major problem most people face here is accommodation simply because movement of people from mainland to tasmania as trigger the price of accommodation and even scares. To get accommodation you will need to have rental history, payslips, water bills and so on which there is no way you can get this if you are new in the city to be honest is very very difficult expecially if you are with family. Job i can say job also is major issue here i worked for just two weeks since i landed last year "fruit picking" very hard job working in the sun for over 8hours. Even till now am still looking for job.

Most people do disability job but you need some license to work in that sector

You can't survive working here without having a car

Pay rate btw 25aud to 32aud some pay less

Rent for single room/ shared apartment from 180-250 per week
For family from 380-600 per week depending on the area Note: No one will give a family with kids a room apartment they give sign rent agreements based on the size of the family

Car from 1000 depending on your taste

Fuel 1.53 per liter depending on the type

We spend 80aud per week myself wife and kid for feeding

To family once you obtain your visa in my opinion let one person come to settle rent and job before the rest move

To student get the half of the second semester fees job here will not pay second semester

GETTING A JOB

Some people think that when you get to Australia a job is waiting for you. that isn't the case at all. While there are jobs here it depends on your state of mind to start from a small place before climbing the ladder although some people have special grace, where its straight to the top from nothing.

1. Alienate yourself from people who aren't ready to help you but smile at your faces and pretend they are your friends (I've see seen a lot here, not everyone you call your sister/brother from home wants to see you succeed, although there are still the Godsent among them) Use your discretion wisely.

2. Downloaad the Airtasker app, you can use it to earn some money pending when you get a real job.

3. First things first, GO AND GET YOUR FIRST AID, CPR, POLICE CHECK AND WORKING WITH CHILDREN CHECK. Also have your driver's license at hand.

4. You can apply for disability jobs with those certs mentioned doing the disability course( You better believe me, I know what am talking about).

5. Above all Pray to God to guide and direct you.

P.S Am in Victoria( things might not be the same as other states but there is no harm in trying)

Mine is a 2yr visa. I didn't register with any of the above. Just PRs can I think. I was told after 3years with same employer you can apply for PR using the employer as sponsor. I haven't considered PR yet.

I am more of AACA than vetassess... But with the little knowledge i have as per vetassess, you have to carefully study the requirements before submitting your application. More attention should be paid to his job description as this has to align with anzsco code for architectural draftsperson. Please make sure he has at least one year related experience in an archy firm or construction company as this will play a major role. Lastly, kindly refer him to this thread so he can read up too and equip himself with vital information.
For vetassess. https://www.vetassess.com.au
For AACA. https://www.aaca.org.au

abby2443:
You mean he did the assessment in less than 48hours?

abby2443:
@Viola2017

His 4years B.Sc will not fly with AACA but like i mentioned earlier if he has at least one year experience in any archy firm or as a draftsman in any company he should be fine with vetassess.

As regards your second question.. No, you can decide to switch your discipline once you get there, no penalty for that.

With respect to the third, I'll like to leave that for the accountants in the house. Regards

This is starting to get childish.

Adam's Oshiomole said they will impeach Saraki,and then stop him from coming back to the Senate if he contests again.

There were no personal attacks in his words,as his statements were pure political statements.

For Saraki to descend so low as to bring a private conversation between himself and Adam's into the public arena, shows how mature he is. What if Adam's Oshiomole had approached you privately for support?people talk to each other privately,and that is where it ends.
