Bellabonkers Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Hi Poms in Oz family, Does anyone know where we stand with unpaid leave whilst our visa is still processing? In Feb of next year I plan to go back to the uk for 6 months- I am hoping I have a visa by then but just trying to gauge worse case scenario. I have been waiting 19 months so far so would like to think I should be soon however as a hairdresser I know that might not be the case. If I go on unpaid leave and they open my visa will there be an issue? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible on a 457 to go for unpaid leave overseas so do you still have a valid 457 at that time? Otherwise you need a bridging visa B and ask for approval first of immigration. only little risk is that they might question if you are really needed in your position if you can leave for 6 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant be sure but you should be allowed for 3 months in total of unpaid leave without affecting the visa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need to tell you guys that words cannot even explain this feeling... Please update my case on the spreadsheet; Below is my full timeline. 09/01/2018: Nomination and visa application 30/08/2018: s56 requested more documentation (form 80 and character update for my wife - she didn't add the full 10 years of passed living address) -- Submitted back within 3 days. 08/10/2018: Nomination approved 09/10/2018: s56 requested additional documentation. Now that my son was passed 2 years old, they needed a TB scan (both children had a medical already), once passed age of 2, they have to provide a TB scan as well (for certain countries). -- Submitted back within 8 days. 12/11/2018: Visa grant received. This forum has helped me tons and don't worry - I'm not going anywhere. -- Knowing how hard and stressful this process is, I've decided to stay dedicated to try and help anyone, with anything I can with regards to this process.

My MA advised me not to go back home for more than 4 weeks. He said that I could get away with going for more, but would be risking getting my 457 cancelled. If you are on a 457 I would certainly not advise you to leave for so long. I don't know how bridging visa works, but like Suuz mentioned, you may be risking them questioning the legitimacy of your position if you can be away for so long.
