    Have you ever considered that the black Africans coming to Australia (started to move over in big numbers mid 80's) might be racist themselves?I can tell you i believe they are.A little story,I went with a lady from Mozambique after she arrived in Perth for some years and mixed regularly with her friends.And guess what,they didn't want anything to do with our indigenous Australians.I won't go in to the reasons for this but all i can say is well like you said "it's time to move on",we can understand the differences and that's all this rubbish about racism is about.Blacks need to be honest and come out and tell the truth.

    You should have used the "Legal System" to explain the law, and not human rights.

By the way am an accountant and mortgage broker if any established Nigerian or African in Australia seeking any form of loan or mortgage.

    Thanks for this again, super helpful Chioma. However for the first point, I think AHPRA strongly considers medical job experience, and specialities in the medical field. They allow you to come over easier and help you possibly continue from where you stopped to the best of their abilities. For example, I am a pharmacist, industrial pharmacists with over 10 years of experience do not write the exams we write and are given permanent residence right away, with crazy pay haha. Same applies to specialist doctors😅. But I completely get you of course. I have a question btw 🙏🏽🙏🏽I am trying to come over with a work Visa, I have a younger sister of 18 years old whom I'm supporting in upkeep, do you think it's possible to do a dependent visa for her?? I do not have a visa agent and I know what my migration process is like for the most part but this part is a riddle for me🙏🏽😭

    • @lifewithchioma
      @lifewithchioma 6 днів тому

      Thanks for sharing that insight about some other medical professionals. Good to know. About your sister, I really am not sure. In some cases, dependents can be up to 21 years of age if you can prove that their dependency is due to exceptional circumstances eg disability. Unfortunately, I don't know more than that. I hope you find answers.

I am Canadian living in Canada, great job for an int’l organization, travel benefits, etc. however I finally became an Australian PR earlier this year and thinking about leaving everything behind to make the big move terrifies me, especially knowing how much Australians appreciate local work experience which I lack right now.

      Oh, I can understand your concerns. Perhaps you can do a slow transition and take an extended visit to Australia and see firsthand what the prospects are in your profession, network and gain some knowledge before you make the big move?🤷 Having PR is also an advantage as it gives employers more confidence that you're a stable resident. Goodluck to you.
