wakeboard1980 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 You can go to Perth as far as I believe you don't have to live in the state that sponsored you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lebourvellec Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 There is no condition on your visa to live and work in the sponsoring state. You are a PR of Australia therefore can live and work anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmx33 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I'm reading this with interest. I have a 489 visa which is regional sponsored by WA. Will it effect me when I were to apply for the 887 if I didn't fulfil my commitment to WA? I can find any work in WA and soon will run out of money. I had a great job here but it wasn't regional and now up in the creek without a paddle so to speak. Looking like I may need to go back to the UK unless I can start looking interstate.

You are on a provisional visa (temp) which can be cancelled you have a condition on your visa that states that you MUST live and work in regional Australia. Check your visa conditions - you canoe to other Regional parts if Australia but you can not live or work in a place that is not classified as regional.

Check your visa conditions you will have 8539 While the holder is in Australia, the holder must live, study and work only in an area specified by the Minister in an instrument in writing for item 6A1001 of Schedule 6A or item 6D101 of Schedule 6D , as in force: (a) when the visa was granted; or (b) if the holder has held more than 1 visa that is subject to this condition--when the first of those visas was granted.

mdmx33 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 so if I go and work in the NT when I come to apply for my PR the fact I worked/lived in NT but was sponsored by WA should have no bearing on the outcome of the decision? Is it just a case of go and do it or do I have to fill out forms etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just a case of go and do it or do I have to fill out forms etc You are suppose to tell WA that you are moving to another regional area- I'm sure the info is on the WA site. But as long as you comply with the condition of your visa living and working in regional Australia there should not be an issue of moving and still meeting 887 eligibility.
