Guest juliecroquison Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 hello everyone, I am planning to go and live in Australia with my Indian boyfriend for 1-2 years. Presently we are living in France my home country. Before we lived together one year in china. Going there and living there for me is OK because Australian Govt give an option of working holidays to the french people so that they can go and live in Australia and work also. But i think for my boyfriend as he is Indian from nationality it would be a visa problem. Kindly suggest some Best possible solution so that i can easily move to Australia with my boy friend to Australia for 1-2 years. He has 7-8 year of experience in banking so may be it would be helpful for him. Basically i am expecting that if someone can arrange sponsorship for him so that we both can come together. Is there anyone who can help us in this regard. Regards Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portlaunay Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Hi and welcome to PP. I think you and your boyfriend would be best contacting a migration agent to look at the options for you. Whilst there are members on here who know a lot about the migration process your particular circumstances may make it difficult to offer sound advice.

This means either finding an employer to sponsor him or to investigate skilled migration. Finding an employer sponsor will not be easy, as I mentioned on PIO, if he works for an international organisation it might be possible to negotiate a transfer, otherwise it is just old fashioned job hunting. I do think this will be hard though, banking and insurance are not jobs that often need to look overseas for staff, but he might just get lucky. In terms of skilled migration, you would need to go to www.immi.gov.au and see if he is in an occupation that is on the skills list (search for the SOL or CSOL). Perhaps do that and let us know how you get on. Of course the other option, is for you to get the work related or skilled migrant visa and then you could add him as a dependent assuming you are proper defacto partners. A skilled migrant visa is a lot of trouble and expense to go to for one or two years of course, it is a visa that makes more sense if you think you would like to move permanently.
