Hi, My son, he's presently overseas working from the UK, is applying for a 491 visa and requires police clearance for all countries that he has spent 12 months in during the past 10 years From 2013 to 2017 he worked in The Oman. Upon leaving he obtained police clearance. However I have read that a police clearance check is only valid for 12 months. My question is...would his present Omani police clearance check dated 2017 still be valid or would he have to go back to the Omani issuing authorities to get another? Thanking you grpaway

My youngest son is now an Australian citizen, having emigrated from the U.K. 9 years ago Several years ago he sponsored his long term girlfriend on a de facto basis. She is now a PR. However they are now no longer partners. He now wants to marry (another) child hood sweet. Boys! Yes I know!!! I understand that he can make 2 sponsorships in total as long as there is a 5 year gap. is this correct. And now my eldest son is seriously thinking about emigrating to Australia but needs the added points of family sponsorship. My question is therefore... ...Is the max number of sponsorship of 2 pertinent to just de facto visas or is it a total number covering all types of visas. in other words can my youngest son sponsor a second de facto visa application and also sponsor a family member? One further question if I may. My daughter emigrated to Australia 15 years ago but returned to U.K. 5 years ago and now permanently lives in U.K. She has dual OZ and U.K. citizenship. Could she sponsor my (other) son. Very grateful for any help. is
