Hiya m8, we are hoping to go on a 457 sponsored visa. Had meds done and application lodged, our agent said that on the class of visa we are going on then we do not require a police check.

Hi we are getting a 457 (i hope!!) - you only need a criminal record check (police check) IF you are declaring a conviction. If you dont have a conviction you DO NOT need to get a police check!!! If you are unsure whether or not you have a conviction of any type pay the tenner and do the check - peace of mind an all that!! - Hope this helps :)

thanks everybody, i dont have any convictions. i was worried because i would have to get the police check from my parent country as well and that might take long time.

Hi Waliam

As has already been said no you don't need a police check for the 457 visa. However is you are going for a permanent visa within the year yes you will need to get one. I would suggest if this is the case then to get one anyways to take with you. We did & just thought it would be easier than getting it done from Oz.

This sounds like a good idea!! Where do I get police checks done??
Rather do it before I go
