Hi,
Can anyone gave us some advice on the following issue of our Parent visa 143.
Our story:
We are in Perth Australia on a 457 working visa(husbands) we applied for the Parent visa Beg October 2015 with intention of staying permanently and working in Oz we both have good jobs which we would like to keep, however we have been informed that the 143 visa we applied for will not meet up timewise (457 visa at the end of August.)
We have been told by our Migration Agent that the only way round this is to leave the country End August apply for a tourist visa and then apply Mid Novemeber for an 804 parent visa which will give us work rights, all a bit confusing, now we are told that to apply for the 804 visa we need to withdraw the 143 visa we have paid 5k already for and reapply and start at the beginning of a very long waiting list.
Can anyone help, please
