Hi,
I came to Australia as a student dependent in December, 2004. I did my year 11 and 12 in 2005 to 2006. I am now on my own student visa intending to train in clinical psychology at the University of Southern Queensland. I've been working part-time with McDonalds for the last three years.

Prior to 2004, I did primary schooling in Townsville in 1996 to 1997 when one of my parents was studying there.

I intend to apply for PR status, but Im not sure if Im eligible. What step shoud I take if I apply? And do I apply for permanent residency or skilled visa?

Thank you,
Joyce.
