:welcome: that's unfair isnt it? a week has passed and nobody even dare to help or post anything on your problem.

this is my 2 cents advice :twocents: - migrating in australia is totally different than the system of migrating in the us. you can apply for migration on this categories even though you dont have employer that will sponsor you. you do it on your own or hire a migration agent.

visa options - if you are outside australia

skill matching visa (subclass 134)

a permanent visa for applicants unable to meet the skilled independent criteria who want to have their details listed on our skill matching database. applicants must be sponsored by a participating state/territory government or by an australian employer.

skilled - independent visa (subclass 136)

a permanent visa for people with characteristics needed in the australian labour market. applicants are not sponsored but must pass a points test.

skilled - state territory nominated independent visa (subclass 137)

a permanent visa for people unable to meet the skilled independent criteria. applicants must be sponsored by a participating state/territory government, and their nominated occupation must be on the skills shortage list of the sponsoring state.

skilled - australian sponsored visa (subclass 138)

a permanent visa for people unable to meet the skilled independent criteria but who have an eligible relative living in australia willing to sponsor them. this visa has a points test to select applicants with characteristics needed in the australian labour market.

skilled - designated area sponsored visa (subclass 139)

a permanent visa for people unable to meet the skilled independent criteria but who have an eligible relative living in a designated area of australia willing to sponsor them. this visa does not have a points test but applicants must have characteristics needed in the australian labour market.

skilled - independent regional (provisional) visa (subclass 495)

a three (3) year visa for people unable to meet the skilled independent criteria, but who can meet the slightly lower pass mark for this visa. after living in a regional or low-population growth metropolitan area for two (2) years and working for at least 12 months in a regional or low-population growth metropolitan area, applicants can apply for a permanent visa. applicants must be sponsored by a participating state/territory government.

skilled - designated area sponsored (provisional) visa (subclass 496)

a three (3) year visa for people unable to meet the pass mark on the points test for either a skilled - independent or skilled australian sponsored visa but are able to be sponsored by a relative living in a designated area of australia. after living in a designated area of australia for two (2) years and working full-time for at least 12 months in a designated area in the same state/territory as their sponsor, applicants can apply for a permanent visa.

employer nominated migration visa - subclass 856 (onshore in australia)

or subclass 121 (overseas application)

this is an employer sponsored visa, also referred to as the employer nominated scheme (ens). permanent residents entering australia under the employer nomination scheme have a job waiting for them, or you can apply for this visa in australia if you hold a temporary working visa, subclass 457 (there is an opportunity with some other temporary working visas too), a working holiday visa, or a graduate student (temporary) visa. your australian employer is your sponsor.

since july, 2005, this visa category has been considerably changed to encourage more skilled workers to enter this country. australia is hungry for skilled workers, particularly those with trade skills.

an australian employer pays aud$340 to the department of immigration and multicultural affairs business centre, as a nomination fee.

as the employee, your visa for this section will cost aud$1,305.00 for application overseas, or aud$1,935.00 if you are already here in australia. this payment includes all family members in the application. other costs will be immigrants' medical assessments, skills assessment fee (if required), police clearance documents, translations if necessary, medical reports and photographs. these payments are not refundable if the application is unsuccessful.

you can do further research in www.immi.gov.au - official information for immigrants and visitors to australia.

I have been to australia to visit a relative there so i had a taste of what australia is all about. Some of the Migrants prefer to have the ENS Employer Nominated Scheme or Temporary Working Visa, Subclass 457 due to the job security that there would be an employer waiting for you when you arrive in australia rather than applying on independent skilled migration - not being sure if you can find a job or not.

That being said, you have to register first as a nurse like the same procedure in the US. First to ANMC and then the state board of nursing (Victoria / New South Wales, Tasmania etc etc.. ) from there you can apply direct to various hospitals in Australia.

Good Luck

Migration Skills Assessment

Migration Skills Assessments are processed and assessed at the ANMC office in Canberra. The assessment is document based and therefore the applicant does not need to be present for the assessment as it is completed based on the information provided in the application form and the submitted documents indicated in the application form. It is critical that they receive the correct documents as outlined in the application form to process the application in a suitable timeframe.

At the completion of the assessment, a ‘Letter of Determination' finding the applicant suitable or not suitable for migration purposes will be posted to the applicant or their nominated agent if this applies. This ‘Letter of Determination' should be included with your application to DIMA and is the document you require as your evidence of a Migration Skills Assessment.

Please Note:

You should not apply for a Migration Skills Assessment from the ANMC if you are:

  • Enrolled Nurse/Registered Nurse Division 2.
  • An overseas educated nurse or midwife who holds a permanent resident visa.
  • Nurses and midwives applying for Working Holiday Visas/Temporary Visas.

These nurses and midwives should apply directly to the relevant State or Territory Nursing and Midwifery Regulatory Authorities (NMRA) for registration requirements and application forms.

posh, ive already sent a PM regarding your query. :)

please read through the NMB pdf carefully on the list of required documents. You need to mail these requirements to the NMB. Do not send original documents, instead, have them photocopied and certified by the Justice of Peace/Notary Public (including name, address and contact number of the JP/NP). The only document that needs to be mailed separately is your proof of registration, and this can only be mailed by the Board of Nursing. These papers will then be assessed by the Nurses and Midwives Board. The NMB will inform you through mail whether you are qualified or not. :)
