Hi guys,

I'm planning to further studies (in MBA). Currently, I'm holding a Electronics degree with 3 years exp. If I goto Australia :

1) Can I bring my wife there too (no dependents)?

2) Can she work full-time (as an accountant)?

3) After graduation (maybe 2-years time), can I stay and work in Australia? How hard is it?

4) In the UK, an international student will get 1-year working permit upon completion of masters. Is there something similar in Australia?
Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

that is incorrect info..........

all info required are here, just do your own research.....http://www.immi.gov.au/

it is NOT necessary to go through agents....

Hi guys,

Thanks for the advice. It seems I have 2-options. To go there with "student VISA" or under "skilled migrant VISA".
I've gone thru the website and need some advice.

1) If I apply student VISA (much cheaper compared to migrant worker) and bring my wife, can she work there (Caufield) as an accountant? If so, how many hours per week?

Quote "Family members of students enrolled in Masters by coursework can work unlimited hours once the student starts their main course."

Another quote "Your family members must:

...
-work no more than 20 hours per week
...
"

2) How to get accountant skills accessed in Malaysia ?

Once I graduate (2 years time), then maybe i'll apply for "skilled working" VISA, cause I will have more points by then

Dagnabbit, Easter means all the stores are closed and now i can't find a place to get fags or bottles of lemonade.

I stocked up on Wednesday. Most shops are only open till about 2pm today, and mostly closed tomorrow. I suppose if you're desperate, you could go to 7-11.

Eating out this weekend will be a nightmare. A 10-20% surcharge almost everywhere!

Haha... Easter holidays = DEAD TOWN.

Last easter my friend and I stupidly went to Knox City and got stranded there because the entire complex was closed. Can't even enter the building.

This time round I rather stay at home and sleep...

M'sia's public holidays are so much better... at least you see lively people everywhere compared to a dead town over here where everyone mysteriously vanishes.

Hi KV,

Thx for the info. I think she'll search for a job there once we get there in AUS. She worked for PWC KL sometime ago...

I will be going there to study full time with student VISA (and not mainly working as some of you might have misunderstood). My wife (which has CPA) will be accompanying me there, and will be trying to search for a job while my course duration. Since I'm doing postgrad, then she can work there 'unlimited hours' (will confirm with AUS again).

According to the points calculation, my wife barely passes (not in the sinking pool). If I study there for 2 years (with her working there), then we can definitely get more points.

Yes, I'm considering UK too (UK study fair this weekend in KLCC), but it is rather pricey. An MBA course in UK would cost ~120k, while in AUS its ~70k. Not sure whether the cost of living might actually offset the lower fees in AUS... Any "study in australia" fair in KL?
The day he rose again...Happy Easter!

Aiya..forgot to say to everyone here.. HAPPY EASTER!!  

But damn got exams on tuesday after holiday   

Nah... Melbourne's boring.
The only thing that might spark a little interest is the Game On exhibition at Fed Square where they display various kinds of video games from the late 70s and 80s. Need to pay 10 bucks though... don't really feel like going anyway, might just go if there's really nothing to do.

The city is dead because some shops are not open. But can still see many asians wondering around the China Town area.

Aussies go away from city, asians fill the city up

lol same as in perth as well ! nothng much just visit Burnings lo ! buy hardware stuff to mod!

Im also bored now.My roomate went to Gold Coast and im all alone now.

Maybe go EB Games to buy some games.Still got 9 days to go before im busy again.

Now,im regret for finishing my work too early.

Here is damn bored, no many shop open.. dunno wat to do.......

Indeed. IDP only gets you into the uni (for free ) and you have to settle everything else, including accomodations.
Looking at chicks....

Best way to pass time when you have nothing to do.

Anyone doing Movement Science in CQU @ Rockhampton?

The reason I am asking is because I will be there 2009 March onwards. Any info on the living costs and accomodation?

Anyone staying around Rockhampton??

haha i'm so bored, tomorrow we're having my 1st term final exam =.= stupid exams, ESL test and i'm slacking here xD

Whoa... two days of rain... super cold

holidays ending soon, and all I did was slack...
hehe... well it depends on your luck I suppose. I too did encountered several small issues with IDP when I applied but in the end they resolved it well.

zzz...damn cold...hands like frozen..legs also frozen..whole body also frozen... aihh...when will my dream weather come~~   

ya y bro !
