Many thanks all.

I should have added that I am married to an Australian and we have joint bank accounts with savings there - hopefully that means my ties are sufficient enough to be granted a one-year RRV!

Hi JetBlast,

The police check and medical was done in around April 2016.

Note that I first entered Australia in April 2013 on a 457. I traveled in and out of the country regularly up until moving to the U.S. The last time being in June 2017, 6 months after I received PR and 3 months before I came to the U.S.

Hi all,

I obtained Australian permanent residency status in December 2016. I moved to the U.S. for work in September 2017.

I have a few questions about returning to Australia:

1. What is the latest I could move back to Australia without needing to re-apply for residency and / or another visa type?
2. If, for example, I decided to move back in September 2021 - a total of 4 years out of the country and almost 5 years since gaining permanent residency -  what would my options be for re-entry?

Many thanks!

Hi Craig,

Thanks for the info. The car build date is September 1989. We're just waiting for my partner to get his work transfer through (around April 2013) then we need to start planning the move. Will be in touch nearer the time! Thanks again.

Hi,

 

1989 325i Convertible

2.5L Petrol

Automatic

RWD

100000 miles (160000km)

No air-con (but a convertible!)

worth £4500 in the UK

 

Exact model isn't listed on red book but using an similar model and adding a thousand dollars for convertible $5-8000

Market value according to carsales.com.au is circa. $12000

 

Sorry, I should add that I intend to keep the car for a very long time as a rare and appreciating classic. I also intend to slowly restore it which should also increase it's value somewhat (albeit not by a massive amount).
