<p><p>Hi guys , </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Have decided to transfer NHS pension to Australian Super fund ( QROPS ) . We arrived in June 2011 and had initially thought we would just be here for a couple of years but changed our mind and received PR in Feb 2013 . </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>As the transfer is happening more than 6 months after we left the UK we will have to pay some tax on the growth of the fund ( which we can elect the receiving super fund to pay @ 15% ) . </p></p>
<p><p>However , is it the growth since we became PR ( Feb 2013 ) or since we arrived in Aus ( June 2011) on a 457 ? </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>In case it is since the date we received PR , do we have to request the NHS Pensions to do another calculation for that date ( Feb 2013 ) so that we can calculate the growth from then ? The NHS will only provide this extra calculation at a cost . </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Have tried to use the residency calculator on the ATO website - not entirely clearcut . Would appreciate any advice .</p></p>

<p><p>Hi ,</p></p>
<p><p>arrived in Vic just over a year ago on a 457 . Now applied for an employer sponsored RSMS ( 187 ) visa . However , cannot seem to be able to upload the documentation online - tried to email all the documents to the processing centre but they came back promptly saying they could not accept it that way and advised me to keep trying to upload them online .</p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>I have tried uploading them from home /work/friend's place but the same error comes up . The files are small and there is a problem with any kind of file - word document /PDF etc . Phoning them up gets the same response . </p></p>
<p><p> </p></p>
<p><p>Any one else had this problem ? Or using Skillselect ? </p></p>
<p><p>Since 1st July all applications for many visas have to be completed online .</p></p>
<p><p>thanks</p></p>
