Hey Mark and also on that note, I’ve seen a lot of mining companies in Australia I’ve applied to says I have to either be a Permanent Resident or have Full Working Rights. Please tell me more about the full working rights and how do I go about in getting one?

Thank you

Hi again Mark,

So do I need to secure a visa sponsorship first from a company before applying for a visa or I can also apply for a visa/working rights via the Australian Department of Home Affairs?

Noted with thanks mate. Just a question on my primary school level, which I did 9 years straight form Elementary up to grd 8. Would this be an exception now that it’s straight 9 years more than 5 years the requirement? Also on that note, all subject/lessons were also taught in English as the primary language. Now can I get a letter from my primary school to justify all these?

BTW Mark, I secondary school I did only 4 years (year 9 to year 12) and u mentioned an exemption of 5years so would that still be an exception? I can get a letter from my secondary school stating I did 4 years (year 9 to year 12) and that everything all subjects/lessons were taught in English?

Please advise mate.

Thanks

Thanks Mark that was crystal clear. I’ll see what I can do from end and get back to you.

Hi Mark, kudos for your reply yes that now simplifies the process now that I don’t need a Skills Assessment. Now about the IELTS, when you mentioned that I need an exemption of 5 years of study in English, well I think I do because in Papua New Guinea all our schools are being taught in the English Language as the primary language for learning. Now how do I prove that to the Australian Department of Home Affairs/Immigration that i don’trequire an IELTS?

Hi Mark,

I went to the TRA homepage from the link you gave I answered a few questions and one of the question asked for my home country which I tried to find from the drop down option however, my country (Papua New Guniea) was not found. An auto reply stated that my country does not require a Skills Assessment according to my occupation of Diesel Motor Mechanic?

I’ve attached a screenshot for you to see.

Please clarify this for me mate.

Hi Mark, many thanks again. Let me go through the ANZSCO occupation listing/link you gave and revert back to you.

Cheers mate.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for the quick reply, now that you’ve cleared things I can see I am moving now. And yes I am a combination of a Power Station Operator/Maintainer and also I am a diesel fitter/mechanic in a Power generation company. So under which occupation/category does my occupation come under?
