What No One Tells You About the Aussie Work Visa
You think getting a working visa for Australia is just paperwork. It’s not. It’s a slow-motion obstacle course—skills assessments, police checks from every country you’ve ever called home, English tests even if you already dream in it. The points system is a numbers game that makes you tally up your worth, line by line.
You wait months, sometimes years, for an invitation that might never come. Meanwhile, you keep upskilling, keep refreshing your inbox, keep explaining to your family why you’re still not gone. Every document is a reminder of who you are, and who you’re not—yet.
It’s not hard, exactly. But it’s relentless. And when you finally hit submit, it’s just you, your hopes, and a government portal that doesn’t care if you’re tired.
