hi i am hoping to come out to aus and apply for LLR visa onshore my mam and sis are both PR and have been roughly 8 years now , i am going to take the big risk and possibly come out on tourist visa lodge LLR onshore and request bridging visa with work permission whilst LLR is in process , roughly around the 10+ year mark i am to believe, i,m wondering if there are any single parents in perth who are working and looking after two children alone and how they manage , i am a personal trainer i teach classes etc plus i am training to become massage therapist which i can see is on regional skills list so i am sure i will find work at $30/50 an hour ... any feedback of similar situation appreciated xxxx:confused:

Hi misscheekymonkey, good luck with your visa application. I too am a single parent. Have one child and am in Baldivis. I am studying a masters degree at the moment. Been in oz for 7 months. We love it. My daughter goes to a childminder after school every day. It can be tough but I have met some great friends here who keep me sane!! When are you due to come out? Take care, Michelle x

I am a single parent, have a 9 year old daughter we are moving to Perth in September. I am originally from Australia and my daughter has Australian Citizenship by descent, we are going to be near to family and my daughter will have lots of cousins nearby. I can't wait until we fly out on the 12th Sept.

Hi Cheryl, great to hear from you. Good luck with your court case. Those things really drag out. I hope things go well for you. I don't work at the moment as most of my days are taken up with my masters degree at UWA. I do manage to make ends meet and I can't wait to start work to be able to save up a bit!!! I am living off my savings and don't finish uni until the end of next year. It will be worth it though. I am a qualified social worker in the UK but didn't have enough years post qualifying to practice in oz so I thought I would top up my UK degree with an Aussie masters! Keep in touch. Take care, Michelle x. :cool:
