Hi does HVAC/ air conditioning work count as construction work for 2nd year visa ? I am in a valid postcode

I know I'd be much happier if we were both working. I think we might give it till the end of April if nothing for her the we will have to go elsewhere. It's just that my job signs off 7 days and the farms she might be working on will sign that also

I arrived 6th January 2017. The place we are in all the work is taken at the moment they have not properly started harvesting yet so maybe once that's started she will as people who have jobs still are not working as they are waiting for the harvest to start.

I know once I've got it it'll be such a good feeling but with it so far off and my partner not working it feels like I am working towards nothing at the moment. What was the hours like when you was working all them days consecutively ? Did the weekends count for you ?

I'm working doing construction/farm work maybe 6 hours inland from the Gold Coast. The pay is good

I'm sorry to the OP this comment will not help your situation. What stipulates wether weekends do or not count ? I am working 50 hour weeks 5 days a week will the weekends count ? Or is it down to the employer?

Hi I am in my third week of regional work but I am really struggling my partner is still yet to find work where we are and I am constantly worrying wether we will get it done and wether I will last at trying to stick it out. We we have been here for four months and thought getting it out the way asap was a good way to do it but all day I am just thinking about her not working and me the only one working and wether she will find work to get it done. I am really de motivated coming to Australia was my dream but I just feel lost/stuck at the moment. Has anyone gone through what I have do you have any words of wisdom for me to man up please I need some help
