Interested in Migrating to Perth

leslie2006 · #1 (**permalink**) 31st December 2007, 01:03 PM

just recently joined the forum... I am leslie, 30 single and currently employed in Doha, Qatar. I originally wanted to go to Australia particularly Perth but as Ive learned that its costly to apply for immigration. I don't have that much money so I decided to go Middle East and now Im starting to save for my application. I just wanna know how much do I really have to prepare for immigration? Do you think I can land a good job there?...Thanks and God Bless.

I am moving this to the Australian section of the Forum as you will find people there who can advise you.

Good luck.

Hi leslie2006,

Have you checked out the sticky posts at the top of this (Australia forum)? The ones "Thinking of emigrating" and "PLEASE READ......" will point you in the right direction.

It took us months to prepare for the assessment, then the visa application itself, so it took us about 2 years for the entire process.

Regards,
Karen
