Hi all,

 

I am currently in the process of getting all my assessments and ss for a 176 visa lodge and wondered....(taking bloody ages!! :chatterbox:)

 

If i get my visa, and validate it, how long do I have to finally move? Is it indefinite? :err:

 

Thanks guys

You'll get a year from the date of your Meds/PCCs(whichever is earlier) to validate your visa. One validated you are confirmed as a PR but in order to exit/enter Australia you'll need something called an return visa/entry permit.

 

You have to renew your entry permit every 5 years. To be eligible for that you'll have to stay in Australia for 2 of those 5 years.
