Matt Cahill Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Hi guys, I have just this week been made redundant. There is a possibility of the same role within the same company but in their Melbourne office. My question is about my 457, can I continue on the same one or would this been seen as a transfer in the eyes of immi? I am currently 1.5years with the same employer so obviously looking to apply for PR in 6 months rather than reset the 2 years! Any advice would be much appreciated M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERYSTORMY Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I would check with an agent. You our do realise that if you can pass a skills assessment, you can apply now for pr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advice would be much appreciated M Have you been officially made redundant - has the paperwork been done? I've heard of people in similar situations agreeing to go on unpaid leave for a short period while the new job is sorted, that way there's no break in employment, but you'd have to evidence the unpaid leave in a letter or something from your employer as your salary might look too low when you apply for your 186.
