Eshreen now lives in Perth, studying and preparing for immigration.

Eshreen studied at Curtin University of Technology in Western Australia, majoring in accounting. After graduating in August, I started to apply for Australian permanent resident status while looking for a job non-stop. "I was very busy before I found a formal job. I have to write an application and earn my living by tutoring. Now that I have settled down, I can wait for the application result with confidence. "

Eshreen is now an assistant manager in the market development department of a company that manufactures satellite positioning and navigation. This job was introduced by a friend. There are very few people from China in my circle of friends, almost all of them are foreigners, especially Australian natives, who have helped me a lot.

The reason why universities come to study in Australia is also because they have plans to immigrate. "I have been preparing for immigration during my college years. Re-test IELTS and find a part-time job to earn work experience. I often look up a lot of immigration information on the Internet. The most troublesome thing to apply for a visa is to prepare materials, and you need to go to schools, units and other institutions to open various certificates. " According to Eshreen, in the preparation materials, she would go to the immigration agency and ask, "I have a classmate who works part-time in the immigration agency, so it is very convenient. Ask her directly if you don't understand. In short, the most important thing is that the application materials must be very complete, and there will be instructions on the website of the Immigration Bureau. "

While waiting for the visa, her life was very full and happy. Eshreen said, "I work from Monday to Friday, work part-time in a restaurant on Saturday, go to church on Sunday, and volunteer when I have time." Aselin Debison is a devout Christian. As long as she is free, she will do what she calls "meaningful things" with her friends in the church: wash the car for the residents in a street, trim the garden, send gifts from house to house, sing songs and show people around the church before Christmas. She believes that caring for people needs practical actions, and empty talk is meaningless. "Some people were moved by our actions, and an old man cried on the spot at Christmas." Besides attending church activities, Eshreen's most frequent party is to go out for dinner and chat with friends, which she thinks is a way to care for her friends.

When asked if she would return to China after obtaining a permanent visa, Eshreen said she was not sure. Listen, I like the environment here. And you may not be able to find a good job after returning home.

Experts studying abroad from both sides: Choose the appropriate immigration method.

90% of students studying in Australia want to emigrate. According to the current Australian skilled immigration law, applicants can immigrate in one step as long as their score reaches 120. If you want to immigrate to Australia, the quickest way is to study TAFE (Vocational and Technical Education College) courses in Australia, and the TAFE advanced diploma is equivalent to the domestic higher vocational (junior college) level. This course focuses on skills training, such as air conditioning technicians, gardeners, chefs and other technical majors. Most of them are in the list of occupations in Australia's skilled immigration system, and many of them are placed in the list of occupations that are in short supply. If students go to Australia to study these majors, they can get a perfect score of 60 points in the skill evaluation, and if they are majors on the short-term occupation list, they can also get a short-term occupation bonus of 15 points. It is also good to find a job after graduation.

However, if students want to get a higher diploma and study academic courses before emigration and have not decided whether to stay in Australia after graduation, they should choose their own majors for further study according to their own conditions. If their major is engineer, accountant, medicine (nursing), computer, etc. These majors will also get 60 professional points when applying for immigration after obtaining advanced diplomas, and they can also obtain immigration status in one step. After obtaining permanent residency, students can choose to return to China for employment. For applicants who fail to obtain immigration status in one step, the Australian Immigration Bureau will grant them a temporary residence visa of 18 months. During this period, students can continue to apply for a work visa if they find an employer. In case the score fails to meet the immigration standard, there is also a "curve immigration" method-you can get a temporary residence visa for three years if you work in a remote area, and you can apply for a permanent residence visa in one step as long as you have lived in a remote area for two years and worked for one year within three years.

No matter which way students choose to immigrate, they should lay a good foundation in English and have a clear understanding of Australian culture and immigration policy before going to Australia. In addition, we must carefully consider the choice of major, try our best to choose an interested and suitable major, and never be forced to study an uninterested major because of immigration, which will only outweigh the benefits. What needs to be considered is economic affordability. For example, TAFE courses cost about 350,000 RMB for two years and 450,000 RMB for masters. In addition, when applying for a student visa, Australia will not examine whether you have an immigration tendency.
