489 partner working conditions question

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

We are currently in the process of the 489 visa for SA with the hopes of becoming Pr after 2 years, i understand the conditions that we need to live for 2 years and work for 1 year.

 

My wife the main applicant will find work and should be able to be the main applicant on the pr visa.

 

My question is i may be able to home work for my current company who have an office in Melbourne, would i technically be in breach of my visa terms as i suppose my payslips will come from a Melbourne address?

 

Any help answering is much appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Andy

Hello Andy,

You will have a Condition 8539 on your SC489 visa. 

The PAMS for this condition state:

The key to determining whether a visa holder is working in a specified regional area is assessing where the applicant’s usual place of work is located. If an applicant’s place of work is in a specified regional area but their employer is based elsewhere in Australia or overseas, they are considered to be working in a specified regional area.

I hope this clarifies your situation.

Regards
