Hello All
I am new to this forum after lurking for a while and have found information given very useful.
However I am in a complete befuddle. I am 40 years old and currently work as a Housing Officer in Social Housing in the UK, last October 2011 I started talking to a Melbourne resident online which developed into a relationship talking twice a day and she visited me and I have visited her and we have now decided that we want to make a life together, I should point out we are in a same sex relationship. The Melbourne resident does not want to live in the UK and also cannot leave her Mother in Oz as she is becoming infirm and needs assistance. I am prepared to go to Oz as I believe we should be together and I do love her but looking at the SOL list my job is not listed. I dont think I would be given a partner visa as we have not been together as in physically in the same country for 12 months so I am stuck. Anybody else been in a situation like this? Any info would be gratefully received.
