@Micgeo This sounds like a completely different request to the one mentioned - where they require proof of occupation still exists. 

I'm not sure what impact being stood-down would have, however, my assumption would be that they would consider that to be the same level as "work without pay" and not count that towards the amount of permanent work you've had. If you are still employed full-time (now) and no-one else who was an Australian citizen had lost their job then you should be fine. Again, this is just my thoughts on the matter and I could be wrong - seek professional advice, if needed. 

Regardless, you'd need to provide the above requested information to Immigration. I would include any period of unpaid and when it started again (when you were no longer stood-down) so that they can see there was just a "break" and nothing official. 

Good luck!

@Nora93 Hi Nora! 

There is no law that states you "have to stay with the employer" once you have received your visa - however, there is a moral obligation. Remembering that the employer is the reason you got a sponsorship and ultimately, how you get to stay in the country. 

Personally, I would discuss this matter with your employer and come to an agreement, if they're happy for you to leave / work less hours, then great, win-win situation. 

The only time this (2 years working with same employer) becomes and issue is if you get a visa, leave the company and the company then files a complaint with immigration - stating you never had any intention on staying with them at the time of sponsorship - this is when immigration could open an investigation. I've only heard of this successfully happening once. 

I would just make sure you and the employer are happy with the situation and then end thing (or change contract) with both parties happy.

- It's unlikely immigration wouldn't get involved - unless you have a really upset employer.

@Oscar1988 honestly, I have no idea what would happen in this situation - although I am curious to hear and find out more. I suspect you'd either be granted an extension or would need to come back onshore until the visa status is finalized. 

Not having any background on this (forgive the ignorance), I do wonder why you'd not just come back onshore (closer to the October deadline) anyway. It seems you've been waiting a long time already - surely the process is nearly at it's end?
