tjtjray Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 cool, thanks as long long your 457 visa is valid you can fly it doesn't affect in your visa. I've seen many ppl traveled after submitting the extra docs, even one of mate got approved while he is in overseas. so don't worry and plan your trip.

DurhamNC Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 guys, if I want to travel overseas, but still waiting for my visa, can I do it or not.... If you have a bridging visa A, you have to apply for a bridging visa B. Mine was $140 and it was approved in one day. It allowed me to travel to two conferences about three months apart. If you know you will be leaving more than once give them both sets of dates so your visa covers both trips. Check the website, they are only given for certain types of travel like for business, but not usually for leisure. I hope that helps!

DownToTheWire Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Does occupation/position really influence the timeline? I find that quite hard to believe (or perhaps more likely I just don't want to as mine is the same as June9's) Originally Posted by June9 330+ days waiting since application received.
