Welding in the Perth

Hi

 

We're new to the forum and hoping for some advice please if possible - if we would be better posting this in another area too, then all suggestions are welcome!

 

Since visiting the Perth area two years ago, we are growing more and more eager to return permanently. My partner’s brother lives to the south of Perth, and would love more family out there too.

 

My OH has worked as a welder for over 10 years but has no formal qualifications/training, and from what we can gather our best bet would be for him to act as the main applicant and to apply for a 176 State Sponsored visa (after completing a VETASSES practical in London to validate his skills/experience). Is this correct????

 

We have also been wondering whether it would be possible for him to start sending a CV directly to companies out there in the hope that he could be sponsored by an employer. Does anyone know if this is feasible, and whether he would still need to go down the VETASSES route anyway before an employer would even consider him??

 

We really do need as much info and advice as possible, so any help would be much appreciated!

 

Thanks

 

Ange and Rick
