Hi everyone What are ur thoughts on lack of support for parents.We don't want benefits for them but at least give them 5 year visa with 1 year stay per visit.At the moment as per THE AGE article " The parent visa changes are even more extreme. The only option now for migrants wishing to bring their parents to Australia is the "contributory parent" visa – at a cost of $47,120, plus a bond of $10,000 to cover any welfare payments made over a 10-year period. The total is $105,905 to bring two parents to Australia." Looks like only rich can be with their family now.Is there a way to get long visa for parents without paying such a huge fee.may be we should approach government to provide realistic parent visa options for every migrant

got my PR but all this time getting visa and harassed at work i am mentally tired and destroyed my carrier no training provided but work like a slave

hi there can someone please tell me is it better to apply online for citizenship or by post which method is quicker in getting a response,i am in regional victoria. also does the person signing identity declaration form has to certify all the douments like passport,drivers licsense or can those documents be certified from police.

fair enough i am trying to do as many months as possible but being there for 1 year just seem impossible

The harassment started after I was sponsored not when the visa was granted and how would you like to be called a Terrorist at your work ,it was high staff turnover they needed me so they gave the papers i paid all the expenses
