I assume a degree is necessary to work in Australia? Took a look at their list of jobs in demand for 2017 and my job was inside. Just wondering if they do make exceptions for certain fields.

I am planning to stay at airbnb for long term, hopefully to get a job there while my part time business here can supple me part of my income.

Exchange rate is high so it could only save me half month of my expenses.

my wife is confident that she will have a job already because she is a registered nurse.
But about my kid, I couldn't think of a better way, unless i can establish a home business there while taking care of my kid.

how much normally a start registered nurse salary?

lol, i roughly know. but will it affect future RRV or citizenship application?

Just landed. Passed Borders. Now resting i hotel.

Firstly, congrats! You're starting your journey out of this s***hole.

Second, no. The 190 state sponsored visa doesn't need you to have a job before hand. It is not an employer sponsored visa.
Do not make any fixed plans yet. Not even a flight. You're only at the invitation stage and there is still more to do.
The invitation is only to allow you to apply, but the approval process is subject to many other factors: Number of case officers available to look at your case, delays if any red flags (background, history, job, etc.) need more checks and verification by the DIBP, in the midst of a immigration policy change, etc. There are claims of invitees waiting for about a month for just a case officer available to look at their case.
I'm not sure about your job market, but almost all my job applications were rejected because they needed me to fly in for a face to face interview within a month or even a week of applying. You may take longer than that to get from invitation to approval.

Third, as for the moral obligation to fulfill the sponsorship: You need to spend the first two years working and living in the state that sponsored your visa.
Though general consensus that I've seen around is that this isn't mandatory or strictly enforced.
Heck, even my agent was telling me not to bother and just go anywhere I like in Australia.

BUT, when your visa expires and you wish to apply for a citizenship, depending on how p*ssy the officer who is taking your case, they can point at you not fulfilling the conditions of the sponsored visa as a justified case not to grant you citizenship!
This has happened before. A British couple was denied citizenship just because the suburb they were staying in was a few hundred meters outside the state boundaries, despite them working in the state that sponsored their visa!

Got my Working Holiday Visa (Subclass 462), will be moving over to Melbourne next year for a year of experience. Any tips and tricks for job hunt?

I have about 3 years of experience in data analysis, currently spamming my job applications on indeed.au, seek.au and LinkedIn. Worst come to worst I'll be finding those odd jobs for a couple of months so that I can interview there for at least one contract role in my industry.

Many thinks your are faking your good fortune, going to a more racist country....

Yes you are right, they have tighten up....they now require a renouncement of Malaysian citizenship or pr for complete withdrawal....which poses some problems for those who want to keep their Malaysian citizenship....

There are people who naturalised, but continue to keep and travel with their Msian passports....

If you just hold PR, you have to meet the 2/5 years stay otherwise they will give you a lot of problems with renewing reentry permit (so expensive nowadays $370 for 5 years!).

If you take up citizenship, you can only use your Malaysian passport (to enter Msia) until your reentry permit runs out. Even if you successfully renew your Msia passport, you will not be able to get the reentry permit renewed because you are an Aussie.

I recently met a Msian who i have worked with (in another department quite remote from my building) who has taken up citizenship yonks ago. She never told me she wanted to ever go back to Msia to live (until now as we are all close to retirement age). She says she wants to apply for the MM2H program (which i told her was not easy to get being an ex-Malaysian Chinese). She says that it should be very easy now as Msian govt is so broke that they got no choice. Anyway, i will let this forum know if she manages to get it. If she gets it, i might take up Aussie citizenship as well.

Do you mean it is better to be an Aust citizen and then apply for MM2H?

I don't quite get what you are saying.

Do you know any personally? I don't want to give up my Msian citizenship unless i am fairly certain that i can get the MM2H.
