Thanks for the reply, I didn't realise there were diffferent types of resident return visas! Well I will not have lived in Oz for 2 out of the 5 years so I know i wont be aligible for the 5 year rrv, do you know what the requirments are for the 1yr and 3 month rrv are? I tried to search it but can not find any info. I dident realise fees had gone up that much, It would be myself and 2 young children seeking the rrv.as im a student I will find them fees hard to come by as well as flights etc....

Thanks for the advice, I have emailed uni's in oz so now just waiting on a reply. After some discussion with the other half we have came up with a plan that we think may work. If my husband went out to oz just before the visa expired and I stayed here to complete my last year of nursing and then follow him out when I finished. Dont know if this would work or what the cost implications would be. Any ideas?? :arghh: thanks

Thanks for the advice, I will email university's in oz and see what I can come up with. Was hoping there might have been someone on here in a similar situation. I don't really want to go down the route of re-applying as it has cost us a fortune already. but if we did, we would just re-apply as my husband as the main applicant again.

Thanks, I have spoken to the agency we used for the visa. They were no good, couldn't get me off the phone quick enough.

Hello everyone, Im new to this site, Im looking for a bit of advice. Me and my family currently hold a 175 permenat residancy visa for OZ, It has been our dream to for years to go, we were delighted when we were granted our visa in 2011. I am also currently in 1st year university studying nursing. My problem now is our visa is due to expire in 2016, and im not due to complete my nursing degree until 2017. Is there anyway I can get an extension on the visa given the circumstances, or pahaps complete my training in OZ. my head is so messed up I want the 2 so badly but feel I may have to give up one to forfill the other. any help would be much appreciated. thanks :biggrin:
