There is no requirement to exchange your driving licence to a QLD driver licence if you are on a temp visa. However you still can if you wish. The three month time limit only applies to someone who becomes a permanent resident. You have three months to change it to a QLD licence otherwise you are deemed unlicensed. Regarding the OP. His WA driver licence is no longer current as it would have been replaced with the UK driver licence (you can only have one driver licence). My advice would be to exchange it for a QLD drive licence as soon as he/she arrives as the three month rule won't apply as he/she is already a citizen. Hope that makes sense. JOHN

Been in Australia for nearly 8 years and have moved to Boyne Island for work and have to start again on the social front. We are both aged 50 with no kids. Anyone fancy coffee?

I am on holiday in the uk at present and have noticed how cheap cars are here. Is there any way of getting one of these babies back over to oz cost effectively? I am talking about a "normal" car not a prestige one. john -

Hi guys Hope you can help me ? We have been in oz for 6 months now and my in laws are making noises about coming over on a cpv. They pass the family test as my wife's brother died 7 years ago and she is the only sibling left. We should be able to show we are settled as my wife us a nurse and I am 6 weeks off from being sworn in as a cop. So am I right in saying that if they came over on a 12 month visa and then applied for the cpv, they could get a bridging visa till it was granted? If they applied for the non cpv ( I know the visa would not be granted for years) but would they be allowed to stay till it was granted? My in laws are 68 and 73. Hope some one can help. John
