Hi,
I am holding a 457 visa and my employer terminated me. They have informed the Department about my last day of employment but did not request for cancellation as I was hoping to find next sponsorship.
Subsequently, I lodged a 190 PR application within 60 days of last day of employment and I am granted a Bridging Visa A but NOT ACTIVE. This is because my 457 visa is still valid.
Question 1: If I cancel my 457 visa, then the Bridging Visa A will be activated, is that right?
Question 2: How do I cancel my 457 visa? Must I leave the country in order to do that?
Thank you!
Regards,
Tzen
