You may decide to immigrate to Australia for many reasons. If you are moving there to work, there is a lot of support available to facilitate your settling in the country.
For example you might have recognised skills and have been sponsored by an employer in the UK to work in Australia. Or, you may be visiting the country on business grounds – perhaps to start a business there, or help one grow.
Whatever the reason behind your decision to live and work in Australia, you will need to undergo certain clearance checks. One of these checks is called a ‘character requirement’ and involves an assessment to determine if you are of good character. Similarly you will need to meet certain health requirements which will involve having a health examination to determine your medical needs.
As well as your Australian Visa, you may need other travel documents for entering the country that prove your identity and nationality. These will include your passport and a signed Incoming Passenger Card. A Passenger Card is a document required by Australian law that will provide a record of when you enter and leave Australia.
If your reason for going to Australia is more of a temporary one, for example if you are on a Working Holiday, slightly different rules will apply. Still you will have to obtain a Visa that gives you the legal right to work in Australia. The Australian Government make it clear that working in the country is a right, not a privilege.
there’s lots of work out there even fruit picking isn’t that bad, and if you do 3 months fruit picking then you’re able to apply for a 2nd year visa.
