Definitely! :yes:

No, not exactly. The idiomatic Italian meaning is something like "I know my friends so much that I can foresee what they are going to do even before they do it".

Oooh, I'm sure about it but I think that your statement is quite hard to understand for a non Italian speaker...

Hi Vale, welcome aboard :biggrin:

Absolutely not. That's the rule as reported on my grant letter: "You have been granted a permanent visa which allows you to remain in Australia indefinitely. This visa allows you to travel to Australia as many times as you want until 09 August 2018. If you wish to travel to Australia after this expiry date, you will need to apply for, and be granted a Resident Return Visa (RRV)". As you can read, no mention to a minimum stay during the first five years.

Well, not exactly one year from the grant... it's usually about ten months, but you can even fly to Australia, pass the custom checks and then come back to your "old life" for up to five years after the grant, before the visa expires. It gives you a plenty of time to organize the move in every detail.

As Alnaibii wrote, it's one year from PCC or meds, but don't worry: it will be clearly specified in the grant letter.

On the immi site they just say that the partner profession must be on the same list to claim the 5 points, but there's no mention about the visa class. There I read that: "Partner skillsYou can receive five points if, when you are invited to apply for this visa, your partner provides evidence that they: were under 50 years of age had at least competent English had nominated an occupation on the same skilled occupation list as your nominated occupation had been assessed by the relevant assessing authority as having suitable skills for the nominated occupation". Every skill on the SOL is also on the CSOL, so in any case, both if someone applies for 189 visa (being on SOL) or for the 190 (being on CSOL) and the partner has a profession on SOL or CSOL, if the rule is applied as written the points could be always claimed. It is a very interesting question...
