Hi there,

 

Have you considered a partner visa on de facto grounds? You'd need to see if you fulfill the visa requirements (the biggest issue here is whether you can be considered to be usually resident in Australia). Otherwise, you could consider adding them on your visa if your current visa allows this, keep in mind some PR visas do not allow partners to be added at a later stage if they were not included in the main application. My opinion is that you should talk to someone who has experience with regards to the "usually resident" part since you will need to put forward some convincing arguments to be able to sponsor someone on a partner if you are still in the UK as an Australian permanent resident or look at your other options for fullfilling the visa requirements.

 

 

Hey - thanks for this info ..... Will look into defecto and also any hiccups with me not being there yet

Hi all

I have a permanent residents visa, validated last year and valid to 2017. I'm still in UK but thinking of moving 2016

I now have a fiancée ...... Any ideas on what visas are available for him ?

any help appreciated

Hi all - my medicals were referred on 21st August and completed on 14th Sept....visa approved on 14th :-)

Hi all - we had our medicals on 19th June, unfortunately my youngest (2years old) was found to have a heart murmur......so we've had it checked out, ECG etc and all innocent and she's been signed off by the panel doctor. Online she's showing as referred on 15th and 21st August......from what I read we have a long wait though for a decision..... is it about 8 weeks???? Am getting impatient as if granted our entry date will be June next year so all this waiting is eating into our validation time....... You can tell I'm checking the online page daily

Hi all - we are hoping to move June 2013 with our 2 girls who will be 5 & 3. So much to do though, how are all your to do lists looking? Mine is huge and scary

Hi - thanks for your reply. My daughter will be 5 on 28th May next year so looks like she'll have to start in Jan? As she wouldn't have even started primary here. All very confusing. Your info was great, will check out the link.

Hi

we're hopefully moving to Brisbane in July 2013, with a 5 yr old & a 3 year old. Will I be enrolling my 5 yr old in primary for preschool? And when does the school year start?

Is there nursery school for my 3 yr old?

Any help would appreciated

Hi all

Can anyone recommend any recruitment agencies for the Brisbane area? My husband is coming out as Systems Analyst on skills list and would be good to get ideas of any positive experiences with agencies?

Thanks for any help

Hi all

Glad to see a 175 thread

we lodged on 4th April, and got a case officer allocated last week. Was very shocked, glad to see its happening to others too. Very quick processing when I was expecting a 12 month timescale.

Hi - is this still true if you're not married??
