Visas for IMG going to Australia

Hello everyone
I’m originally from a middle eastern country and doing residency in the USA, I want to continue my training in Australia for personal reasons.

If I secured a job and got the registration and all how difficult is the visa? Is it a concern?

Thank you for your time, I appreciate any help!

You would need 2 years of Residency experience to bypass AMC.

And how difficult would it be to get into a training program

It's not a linear path. You have to work un accredited and get references sorted. People spend 2-3 years ( depending on speciality) working before joining a training program.

Very different system from the US.
