Hi... I added my hubby as a 489 Subsequent Entrant; as an on shore applicant - while my application for Subclass 489 was still in progress....I used my file no to add him ; u can either use your own immi account or create one for your spouse. My hubby was on shore on a Guardian Visa, accompanying my 2 children who were residing and studying at Magill in South Australia. I was in Malaysia as the primary and off shore applicant. My visa along with my children was granted on 13/09/2018 and a week after - my hubby's visa was granted on 21/09/2018. So, based on my experience, Maggie is right but I am not certain if you can pay AUD 1860 and directly add your spouse to your current application or pay AUD 3800 to be added as a subsequent entrant. I wish to highlight as well...that even as a subsequent entrant , I was also discouraged to add my hubby by a CO but I insisted and wrote back that good or bad... on whether we are granted or refused - we will face it as a family. Rafaq... you can wait either for your visa to be granted then after apply for a tourist visa for your spouse...hence she will be a subsequent entrant 489 on shore applicant where she will be granted a bridging visa until a decision is made....or as per Maggie's suggestion - write to your CO first for guidance/clarification. All the best to you....

Good day... could anyone guide me on how to apply for the SC 489 Subsequent Entrant... I am planning to apply for my spouse.. Do I apply via my IMMI account or do I create a separate IMMI account for him .. Secondly.. will my spouse share the same Transaction Reference Number.. Many thanks...

Hi Stephen, Sorry to interrupt......if states are focusing on occupation and not points...does that mean if you have a score of minimum 60 - one is entitled to submit EOI and apply for state nomination. I have South Australia in mind. Secondly, 'Closely related occupation' ...for RN - can experience working in a Multidisciplinary ward + ICU ...contribute collectively for points, even though ANMAC has only reported work experience in the ICU. Can I professional reference letter along with payslips and other relevant evidence as proof of work experience gained in the Multidisciplinary ward. Many thanks ya.

Good day, I would like to seek your opinion if by me working in a Multidisciplinary ward besides working in ICU...Im nominating ICU as my main occupation ..Can i gain points for my experience gain in the multidisciplinary ward too...as it is mentioned at Department of Home Affairs website that "your nominated occupation or closely related occupation"............. Kindly assist. Thank you.
