    Looking at your pro's list on the UK side, it seems you have already answered your own question :) good luck

    Sorry I Quoted you in error..just wanted to say I can't believe how similar your story is to mine! I also backpacked all around Australia, had my baby there, was back and forth, and and was completely isolated, in terms of area, and with OH family. Finally, after some yo yo'ing, we are back in the U.K., just me and my toddler, and we are both thriving!

    Bundaberg?!

    KLeanne posted a topic in Queensland

    Hi All, we are thinking of moving to Bundaberg next year, all being well, have a 2 year old daughter. I went there briefly when backpacking, and thought it was lovely, and we now have a couple of family members there too. Just looking for advice and opinions from anyone who's lived/lives there, on what it's like, schools, things to do, general safety and living please! Thanks!

    Try Tully Small town in QLD, farming Bananas mainly, plenty of farms around. Buses pick up from the Main Street and take you to and from work, so you could easily get a flat/house share in town! Good luck [emoji1303]

    Would like to nil and void this post please as I've decided I will stick to my plan and leave in 8 weeks and wait offshore.

    Hello All, I applied for my PR on 21st Jul,17, and I came over to Australia with my partner and our daughter in September for a visit on a visitor visa. I have heard nothing as yet in terms of my Par visa but have seen a request form to complete my medical on my immi account. Should I get it done or will they contact me to get it done? Also, I applied offshore, so does that mean I need to get my medical done offshore, i.e.not in Australia? I have booked flights for 10 February next year to come back to England and wait out the rest of my time in the UK, but my partner wants me to stay until June, however i think it would look better if I went in Feb, and have only spent 6 months on the visitor visa and I wouldn't have the issue of leaving and entering the country again, as the last time I did that I got asked to explain my intentions at the airport,I was told I was doing it fine, but I don't want to get questioned again or risk anything for the sake of a few extra months. Sorry it's long winded, any advice?

    Lol yes, partners family, every time I type that it autocorrects to daughter's family for some reason lol very annoying. Yes I do hope it'll be asap but the waiting times look long ATM. But that would be ideal scenario. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

    Just out of interest, Did you leave and re enter Aus every three months then? Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

    Basically, my partner is coming here to England this week for one week holiday, then the three of us are traveling back to Australia where we will stay for three months, visiting family and just generally spending time with family, we will then travel to Bali for a week, then back to Australia, then we plan to go to Darwin in Melbourne to visit more of my daughter's family, then we are planning a trip to New Zealand for two weeks or maybe more, then back to Australia, that will already be six months up with to re-entries into Aus. After that we are not sure whether to do the same again, visit more family and come in and out of Australia further two times, then I come back to the UK after the 12 month period and wait for grant (hopefully) Will come back to UK after six months. That's how far we have got so far and it's all very legitimate,

    Has this thread helped you decided de any further? Lol. Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

    Thanks. Yep I considered applying onshore on a tourist visa, but was told this was even riskier! I don't see that I'll be breaking any conditions of the tourist visa this way, I mean why make it so that you can visit multiple times within a 12 month period, if they then see it as an issue?! I met lots of ppl on my WHV first time around who simply travelled on a tourist visa back and forth, and that's what I'm doing, only difference is I have also applied for a PR. Yep I'd have waited it out a bit longer, but it's my OH that wants us there next week, as he understandably does t want to miss out on anymore of our 1 year olds life, so he has persuaded me. He already stayed here for 3 months during Xmas, so can't really do that again. I'm just doing it the way I've been advised by Immi, MA and ppl on this forum! When I put up a post about going and applying on a tourist visa, I was told oh no that's so bad and risky, do it this way, so I took it on board and am doing it this way, and I'm being told the same! Lol. Anyway, I have no choice now, we leave in ten days, so I'm just trying to look forward to being a family again for a little while! But this thread really is t helping that lol.

    I just feel they are misleading people then, as it made me think this was absolutely fine by the way they state it on the visa terms. We would like to do some traveling around to various places in and out of Aus, but then settle there for the 3 months at a time, but do intend to come back to U.K. After the 12 months. Thing is it's all arranged now! So many people on this forum have said they've done it too though.
  15. KLeanne
    Thanks

    Really, if this is the case, then why does it state on the visa terms it self, that the visa holder may enter Australia three months at a time, and make multiple visits in and out of Australia during the time of the visa which is 12 months? I am just planning on abiding by the conditions of the visa! I don't really have any other choice so that my daughter can see her family. This was the visa suggested to me by immi and 2 MA.
  17. KLeanne
    Thank you very encouraging, and just what I thought. Yes AU house told me to just notify them before I leave on my tourist visa and I shouldn't encounter any problems. Also MA I spoke to for advice at the time said the same! Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app
  18. KLeanne
    Yes thanks I see your point, but we are simply going to be together for a few months as a family, and for littlen to see other family as it's been a year since, and we plan to travel Aus to see more extended family and also have trips booked to Bali an NZ, so I don't see how they could have an issue with it, it's very genuine. I did speak to a MA who said that it's fine, so hopefully should be. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

    I don't feel that I need advice on this as stated, as I am just simply going to Aus with my tourist Visa to spend time with family over there and so that my daughter can see her grandparents aunties uncles etc. so I really don't see what the problem is with that, many people do it.

    Thank you, yes I did speak to two different MAs also and they told me it was fine too. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

    Thank you, yes I also did speak to to MAs and they also said it was fine. Many on here have also advised and done the same. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

    Nope nothing yet! Ok will do, how do I do that? Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app
  23. KLeanne
    I'm not sure how we would know though! But I think they may email and then you'd need to leave and re enter so it can be activated, that's what I gathered from the calls. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app
  24. KLeanne
    Yes, you do, I was told that once your visa is approved you need to leave and then re enter Australia. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app
