I have score of ielts 7 in all bands, acs approved (before 2012!!) as software engineer so thinking to apply for the visa 189 now from onshore(within australia). i have some doubt which i want to share here. 1.if i apply for the visa 189 (through EOI definitely) what will be my visa status?is it be a bridging visa? 2. And if the visa application unsuccessful(hope not for it) what will happen to the visa 489,will be remain same like before or be invalid also and i have problem then? at present i am in Melbourne for 8 months with the visa 475. kindly someone share view or knowledge about the issue please.. thanks in advance mates..
