457.. Age...


Recommended Posts

So I'm looking at a possible 457 visa with a job offer for 2018...

Now the catch..

I'm turning 42 tomorrow, the job offer will be on the medium stay skills list (project builder) so a 4 year visa, but after being there 3 years and being already 45 (and a half.. Lol) years old, will there be a way to become a PR?

 

My other option is a 188 business innovation visa (the $200 000 loan version), but this seems way more complicated and expensive but apparently I qualify.. Not sure how exactly it works though..

 

I don't want to sell up and relocate my family without an option for PR..

 

Any advice is welcome?

Hey mate,

if the end goal is PR, I think you should talk to a good migration agent about your options for that.  If an employer is willing to sponsor you for a 457, they may be willing to sponsor you for PR.

The (old) 457 was designed as a temporary visa.  They move the goalposts all the time and they moved them big time last month.

 While you will get some good pointers on here, for a life move, it is worth investing a couple of hundred $ for expert advice.
