    First of all, I apologise if this has been posted several times. Anyway, I'm just wondering what I need to bring in terms of P45, P60, social security no...etc. If anyone could give me a list that would be great. cheers, Lisa.

    ??? Just bring yourself and your CV...P45, P60, PPS number etc mean nothing in Australia - you start from scratch...i.e. you need to register for a TFN (Tax file number) when you get here...that is all

    FreeAnd.. is correct but you should also bring copies of any degrees/certificates you may have.

    Not in an interview no I haven’t but you will need it if you get sponsored by a company.

    I was asked to produce my degree for my permanent residency application. Even though I was applying for a partnership visa and it had no relevance at all. You never know!

    I had to get Trinity to send me a copy of it which was a bit of a pain. It was either that or get my dad to take it off the wall and copy it. I thought something official from Trinity would be better!
