Good afternoon all,
I am heading to Australia in early November on a 417 Working holiday VISA and I will be looking to contract as a Senior SQL DBA/Developer whilst over there.
My question is, has anybody on here any experience as a contractor in this sector? (preferably, but any advice in other sectors would be gratefully received!):
The long term plan would be to work as a permie in Oz, but considering I can't do this on this type of Visa I want to use my 6+ years as a DBA to save up and then travel!
Thanks in advance guys,
Dan

- Is it really feasible to IT contract on a Working Holiday Visa? I have read on this site that it is but i'd like to know any limitations if there are any.
- Do you need to set your own Ltd firm up/work underneath an Umbrella as you do in the UK?
- What have people that have are UK residents and have migrated to Australia done regarding taxing in work? I have read about double tax treaties but would appreciate any info people could give here
The long term plan would be to work as a permie in Oz, but considering I can't do this on this type of Visa I want to use my 6+ years as a DBA to save up and then travel!
Thanks in advance guys,
Dan
