thank you james123456 for your advice much appreciated

Hi Glenn, sorry to hear about your situation. https://www.fairwork.gov.au/how-we-will-help/templates-and-guides/fact-sheets/rights-and-obligations/457-visa-holders-workplace-rights-and-entitlements this link shows your sponsors obligations under the 457 scheme and it does include: pay reasonable and necessary travel costs to allow you and your family members to leave Australia, if requested in writing by you, your family or DIBP on your behalf.

 

I feel you should explain about the need for one business class ticket and see if they will cover it for you.

 

I wish you all the best.

Hi i was wondering if anyone can advise me? I am on a 457 Visa . i had an accident at work in July 2015 and injured my back and Hospitalised working in Construction and had to have an Operation. I have been told by 3 specialists since my operation that i will not be able to go back to my old job and have seen 3 neuro surgeons and have been given a disability impairment percentage of 13% by workcover. ive been on light duties for approx 5 months in the office now and haven't worked full time since July 2015 but now my Work cover payments have stopped. I am loosing 900 dollars a week as i am only doing 6 hrs now. Me my wife and daughter are moving back to UK in Dec, Due to my accident and not being able to stay here financially. My question is can i get any financial help with living costs till we leave and with flights. As will need to fly Business class (just me) as i cannot sit for long periods due to my injury and need to lay down. Any Help would be Greatly appreciated.

Thanks marisa
