Hi,
As you say, the trade assessment is the first step. Your husband (being
a bricklayer) will need to have an assessment by Trdaes Recognition
Australia (TRA). This can be quite difficult as it requires getting a
lot of paperwork, ref's, cert's and so on.
Have a look at http://www.workplace.gov.au/workplace/Individual/Migra-
nt/TradesRecognitionAustralia.htm for starters on what they require.
The rules and reg's are quite complex so its best if you peruse at
your leisure!!
Also, a good one to check out is booklet 6 from www.dimia.gov.au . It
gives loads of information on emigrating as a skilled person. Again,
lots of info so best to print a copy and go from there.
.you gotta start somewhere,
best of luck.
