Guest Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Yes, you all need to validate. And if his PR visa is through and he wants to head on over before the rest of you he is able afaik. No need to apply for a WHV. Getting a WHV would cancel out his PR visa also I think (if I am wrong hopefully someone will correct me). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murta Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 if you all have been granted the visa entry, and your son wishes to head out ahead of you yes he can. So long as all of you have gone out by the entry date it doesnt matter in which fashion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long as all of you have gone out by the entry date it doesnt matter in which fashion! I think you will find that the main applicant has to enter Australia first!

ali Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Just check what it says on your visa, as (although a long time ago now) the primary applicant (me) had to enter Aus first. Now this just means that if you all go together your the first passport looked at, but if this is a restriction it does prevent any of the family going to Aus ahead of the primary applicant.

Rupert Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 You all need to validate. You wil need to wait and see if the main applicant has to validate first, you won't know until the visa is granted. It is not that common for this condition to be applied these days, but sometimes it is there. And definitely DO NOT let son apply for a WHV if he has a PR visa sitting there. If the main applicant does need to go first, then either main applicant needs to travel with him or you tell your son tough luck you will have to wait until we are ready to go.

I would love to know why it makes a difference!? It doesn't affect us anyway I was planning on going out myself. "If you travel together that will be fine but if you cannot travel together, Wes (main applicant) must be the first to make the trip then followed by C(secondary applicant). If C to enter Australia ahead of Wes for the initial trip on the new visa this could negatively affect your new residency status." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
