    No need to worry bro, for the two years when I was on 457 VISA before applying 186 TRT, every year I used up all my annual leaves every years, most of them overseas. Other than annual leaves I also took sick leaves overseas, and time in lieu overseas (i accumulated them as I occasionally work on public holidays), also every year I spent a few weeks travelling overseas for business trips. I submitted 186 TRT and clearly listed them in my form80 and it has not been an issue.

    Also 2 years since you are under grandfathering provision. Once you change your employee the 2 years calculation starts over from zero. So you should avoid changing employee before you acquire PR.

    Hi Mahal, if you change to a new employee, the two years starts over again. It is not three years since you are under 186 TRT grandfathering provision. However please note the grandfathering arrangement ends at March 2022 so you do need to submit 186 TRT application before that.

    As per my understanding, the grandfather provision is only for 186 temporary residence transition schema. So if you are going to apply via 186 direct entrance, grandfathering policy does not apply to that. However to make clear I am not a migration agent so I might be wrong.

    And if he goes offshore, he can renew the short term 482 VISA more than one time and the one time limitation is only for onshore, am I correct?

    Hello, My friend, a Chinese, is going to apply a Short-term 482 VISA as an ICT support engineer. Since China is under International Trade Obligation (ITO) with Australia, he has a chance to get a four years Short-term 482 VISA, am I correct? And at the end of four years, he can renew the Short-term 482 VISA once, which allows him to stay another 4 years, am I correct? I know it is not mandatory for home affair to grant him a 4 years VISA, and policy can change, and there are also risks for temporary workers. However, I just want to know, under current policy, ideally, he has a chance to work in Australia for 8 years, am I correct?

    I was not discussing weather it is random or by design. I was only saying your ground of argument was not absolutely cogent and flawless, and I pointed that out.

    You statement is based on occupation. While your statement is true to extent, processing time can varies drastically for different applicants even in the same occupation. Even for the same occupation, it is not uncommon to see that one applicant can get approved within three months and another application waits twelve months or longer.

    Sorry for the silly question, I think I just figured it out: Cost From AUD7,160 for most applicants. From AUD1,195 for Prospective Marriage visa (subclass 300) holders. You pay for the temporary and the permanent visa at the same time.

    Hello, I am Australian PR and I am trying to sponsor PR for my fiancee. Defactor is not an option (we have been in love for 3 years but for most of the time we lived in different countries). I am thinking to apply 300 VISA for her, and marry her in Australia and then apply for 800/820 VISA for her. However I am stunned that 300 VISA fee is 7160 dollar which is as much as 820 VISA fee. Does this mean I need to pay 7160+7160 dollar if I go the 300 --> 820/801) route? Or the 300 VISA 7160 dollar already covers 820 VISA fee if we later apply 820 VISA after we married? Thanks.

    In my IMMI account I can see messages box in IMMI account has a new s56 request. Other than my migration agent notify me about this as well.

    Can you get PR with a salary of 60K? There is market salary test, your income for this occupation should not below the average salary. I would believe the average salary for 261313 - Software Engineer is 90,000+ at least. So I am wondering if case officer will challenge this or not. I suggest you consult an migration agent.

    Hi Folks, My visa was granted this early morning. Thrilled. Details please see my signature. I want to say thanks to the forum. We have a lot of generous people who contribute here. I also want to thank @Hex. Though we never talked directly on the forum but you helped me with all the information you have been sharing . Also your forecast regarding the typical wait time (30 to 40 days) after CO requests more documents kept me sane during the last 30 days. This is a gift before my birthday and before my trip to Bali this weekend. All the best to everyone, Your VISA is coming.

    Bridging VISA is after you applied a new VISA (your old VISA is not expired at this moment), before it is approved, your old VISA then goes expired, now you will be a bridge VISA. However for you, your first 457 VISA expired on 2017 March, and you did not apply any VISA until April 2018, how can you be on bridge VISA during that period? I am confused, correct me if I am wrong.
  15. Aron
    You said you got 457 visa in 2015 Oct for 18th month, so it means your 457 expires at 2017 March. And you reapplied 457 visa in April 2018, so what was your VISA condition between 2017 March and April 2018?
  16. Aron
    Don't forget people without 457 can also apply 186/187 via DE stream.

    If the quota is 30000, then every month they will process 30000/12 for average. Or if they processed more than 30000/12 each month for the first 6 months, then in the last 6 months they will control and approve less than 30000/12 each month to not exceed the cap.

    The skilled employer sponser is not 186 and 187. It will be a new type of VISA. employer sponsored -- 30000 is 186+187
  19. Aron
    The quota for employer sponsered (186+187) has been 48250 for years however it is a celling not a target. In year 2017-18 only 35528 were issued.
  20. Aron
    And BTW, a lot of policies have changed, if your occupation is not on the long term list, even if you find a new sponsor (employee), you can only get a temporary working VISA and you will not be entitled to permanent residence.
  21. Aron
    Hi Vero, I feel sorry for you. However if the company that sponsored you has closed down, from my point of view (a non experienced individual) , you barely have no chance to win the AAT. Nevertheless, since you are applying offshore direct entry, so you might not even be entitled to apply AAT review. " some one said go for a new nomination. What is that. Pls explain. Is that finding a new sponsor and adding that to the existing file. "" ------ no you cannot add new sponsor to existing file, you need to start over again, which means you need to find a new sponsor and submit new RCB, nomination and VISA application again. This is only my two cents. I would suggest you to consulate an experienced migration agent. We have plenty in the form, like @Raul Senise

    Thanks everyone, though I might not fully agree each of the reply, I do respect your valuable inputs. While this is a heavy topic, I can only say, thanks god I am healthy and may God bless all of us to stay healthy, all the best.

    "assume you are returning to your home country at the end or earlier until you actually have another visa granted"  ---- every Temp VISA holder should know this if you ask them However, if you ask them "do you know if you become a temporary worker, it means there is a small chance that one day might you in a situation that you are very very sick and you do not have any health insurance to reply on", I bet you 99% of the temp work visa applicants they won't know. After all, they are not migration agents or legislator and they won't know this until some of them fall into such miserable situation.

    The scenarios I mentioned here is that a man's PR is refused due to cancer and as per law he must leave Australia in 30 days. Shall this man be allowed on a special VISA (not PR) to stay in Australia to seek medical treatment using his own insurance? This is not the same kind of limitation that you were referring. His insurance does cover cancer and he has maintained his insurance for years. Now if he is forced to leave Australia, then he can not use his insurance to save himself. When the medivac bill has passed in this great country to allow bringing ill refugees to Australia and receive free treatment, is it hard to accept that we give a very sick temporary worker to stay in Australia longer to allow him to seek treatment using his own insurance?
  25. Aron
    Hi Ali, thanks for your kindness. fortunately I am a very healthy person. However I heard about people fall in such miserable situation and I just feel sympathy, and could not stop thinking over this matter. While I know PR should be refused if there is serious healthy issue, I just feel they should be given a method to stay in Australia to seek treatment using their insurance instead of being forced to leave.
