Is it these guys? https://www.australiansuper.com/superannuation.aspx I am surprised you still have the life insurance even though you don't live in Australia? Is it still valid even though you don't reside there? Also would it not eat away at your lump sum?

We are planning on leaving Australia next year indefinitely. We may be back in a few years but maybe not. So, I know the rules state that if you are an Australian citizen you cannot take your super with you if you are returning to the UK or Ireland. So, the lump sum myself and my partner have will have to stay in a fund here. However, since we will not be paying into the fund it is going to suffer from heavy loss from fees and charges. So, I am thinking of consolidating both super accounts into one account that charges very low fees, put it into an aggressive growth fund and leave it there for 25 - 35 years as we are not going to be retiring any time soon. Can anyone think of funds like this? Alternatively there is a SMSF but you will have to manage this yourself and file tax returns on it. Not sure how feasible this would be. Seems options are few and far between for those wanting to leave Oz.

What is the best way to prove that you have worked with the same company for the last 24 months under the 457 visa. I presume pay slips are, but would I have to submit all pay slips or just a few.

So, another question. Can one send their application to another centre to be processed. I live in Sydney and it appears that the Melbourne Centre processes applications much faster.

OK thanks! What kind of defacto evidance would suffice? We have a lease on a rental here in Sydney the last year? Are they looking for more than 12 months? We have been going out a long time so duration isnt an issue for us.

Hello, First post on this great forum. I am applying for a ENS 856 Visa in the new year. Currently I am on a 457 visa. So I have been doing my homework and getting ready to submit my application but I have a few outstanding questions. I am not going to be using a RMA. My partner is on a defacto visa with me on the 457. She is going to be on the application for the 856 ENS. Do I have to submit defacto evidence again? There is no mention of this at all on the forms I have been looking at. In the new year I will be applying for the VISA as I will be on the 457 visa 2 years. This will enable me to NOT have to go through the skills assesment. My question is do I have to submit all my qualification documents, CV, etc anyway? Lastly, do I need to get my partner to get all the relevant police checks and clearnaces? I know that I have to as I am the primary applicant but wil she? No issue if we do. There ya go!
