Answer 1 :
I wouldn't have thought so. Idea- try getting the emails through an online elmail account like tiscali or something. http://www.tiscali.co.uk/login/index.php?url=/commscentre/email/index.php
Answer 2 :
Its problem with the mail ... If you use Yahoo Mail you can try to use its search function to look for an specific email sender, email file. You can also try to use windows live mail http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview Put it on a website like you normally would put a file on a website. Attach it to emails like you would normally attach a file on an email.

How difficult is it for a doctor to immigrate to Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, etc.?

How difficult is it for a doctor to immigrate to Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, etc.?
If I am a doctor who just graduates from an Australian medical school, how hard will it be for me to immigrate to Britain, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand? Is being a GP a highly skilled profession that immigration officials of those countries would choose more than someone who is of (I don't want to sound patronising but I can't phrase this better) mediocre skill, such as an accountant, or a plumber? Add: English was my first language so I'm fluent in English, and reside in the USA

Answer 1 :
Immigration to the UK as a doctor shouldn't be impossible (we certainly need more doctors than plumbers or accountants!!), although things have become more difficult as they continue to tighten up immigration laws, also the new "caps" which the new UK Coalition Government are placing on immigration will make it even harder to be accepted. Being a doctor should allow you to apply for a visa as a "highly skilled migrant" (Tier 1) but you'd still need to pass the points based assessment as regards age, qualifications, experience, earnings potential, English language fluency and financial means etc. Plus the capping regulations will mean less applications being considered/successful (they come into effect next summer). http://www.workpermit.com/uk/uk-immigration-tier-system/tier-1/general-highly-skilled-migrants.htm
Answer 2 :
Australia You need to understand that a GP is not a doctor straight out of medical school. You have to spend several years working as an RMO in a hospital and then apply for a Residency program and then it is another 3 years. Only after that are you considered a GP. Only Australian citizens can apply for the Residency program. At present there is a need for doctors in Australia BUT in 2012 there will be an increase of 300% in the number of locally trained medical students (the first intake will graduate then). So it is highly probable that in 5 years only specialist doctors (cardiologists, radiologists etc) will be eligible for migration. The expectation is now that there will not be enough placements for the 2012 graduates to complete their intern year and most of the international students will have to return home to complete this.

What qualifications will i need to become a chartered accountant (GCSE's,A levels,Apprenticeships and Degrees)?
Kay...so im still in year 9, so i can change my GCSE options and stuff (: i need to know what qualifications and grades i will need to become a chartered accountant, and what the average pay would be if i were a chartered accountant, and if anyone would recommend it, or not (: any help from the UK would be appreciated, as im sure the pay and qualifications would be different in other countries x thanks for any help (: i dont mind if you only have a little idea of the job either, every little helps (: <3 x i would also like to add if anyone has an opinion on wether its better to be a certified accountant or a chartered accountant (: to add, i am very good at maths and i get level 8's all the time in year 9, which is a B grade in GCSE i think. i have also done some A and A+ questions which i seem to have done well at (: x

Answer 1 :
You will not have to worry about your GCSE choices although if your Maths is weak you might want to rethink this plan. Although there is a track that does not go through uni, you should go. Suppose you decide after some time that you want to do something different? You would be well and truly stuck if you had no degree. You do not have to study Accounting at uni although if you do, you will be exempt the first of the ACCA exams. Better to study a subject like Computing or Law which will allow you to become a Specialist accountant. More interesting and better paid! After uni you will need to be hired by an accounting firm and you take the exams as you work. The better firms are very, very picky so make sure you have a 2.1 from the best uni you can get into (must be Russell Group). A Certified Public Accountant is the American equivalent so not much use to you.
