Hi there. I聮m a 29-year-old British editor wanting to make a new life in Sydney. I currently live in Hong Kong.

The trouble is that I can聮t make up the points for the Skilled Independent Migrant visa and have no relatives in Oz.

I聮m thinking that my only practical course of action is as follows: apply for a working holiday visa, go to Sydney, find an employer willing to sponsor me for a work visa and transfer to that, sponsor my wife and bring her over. My understanding is that transferring from a working holiday visa to a work visa is easy and does not involve leaving the country.

1 Are there any other routes open to me?

2 Has anyone attempted the plan I聮ve outlined above?

3 Is the plan feasible with regards to getting a job/sponsorship? I聮ve heard that sponsoring work visas can be onerous for employers.

4 If I do get sponsored for a work visa, which visa am I likely to get?

I would appreciate any feedback as I聮m somewhat dreading the process of moving country again, especially with so much uncertainty involved.

Many thanks, Ben

Do what I did and get some professional migration help. I bought a consulatation and the migration agent told me exactly what to do. Otherwise you are guessing and using rumours from blogs. The guys I used are good and they got me full residence. dnamigration.com聽 I hope this helps you
