Gary,

I really do think you need to talk to a migration agent. Unfortunately, none use this board and I'm afraid, living in Australia does not permit me to offer migration advice. Quite where the line is drawn isn't clear to me...

However, from personal experience, I have learned that your nominated profession does not imply your final choice once you become a permanent resident. But the state will not support you with handouts whilst you have no work so it's up to you to find employment (at least for a couple of years, and more, preferably). It would appear that what you chose to do is entirely up to you.

I've been here for about two and a half years now. I don't have a trade as such, although I am qualified as a mathematician. My wife is a pharmacist, and it was through her that we qualified as permanent residents - so much for being able to juggle algebraic fractions... There was no pressure on her to continue as a pharmacist after our passports were stamped. In fact, there were moments when she was thinking about starting her own non-pharmacy business. I 'brought' my own business with me from the UK so was able to support both of us whilst she made up her own mind. As it turned out she did continue to practice pharmacy and still does to this day, only part-time.

There may or may not be complications if you have designated a particular area of Australia to reside in. These would be conditions set by the immigration authorities to which you would be bound I would imagine.

Once again, I urge you to seek the services of a migration agent who is qualified to give such information.

Paul.
