482 to PR - Age and IELTS issues


Klaudia

Recommended Posts

Hello again, 

My hubby and I are on 482 mid term visa. 

I'm 30 and he will be 45 in April this year. 

Will we be eligible to apply for PR as a steam entry after his 45?

If so, does he still need to undertake IELTS and get 6.0 (always 0.5 point short in writing)?

Thanks.

Regards, 

Klaudia

Generally speaking he will need to be under 45. There are a few exemptions for the 186 transition stream, but they are quite niche:  academics, government scientists, earning more than the Fair Work High Income Threshold for last three years, medical practitioner in regional Australia. 

No language exemptions any longer.

I assume he was the main applicant on the 482?   If he's over 45, unless he's in one of the occupations Paul mentions, then it will be too late.

Thank you Guys for the replay.

Unfortunately, I was expecting this answer.

Our visa is still for 3 years. 
It will be hard for us to move back to our country. 
Especially, after such long time. We’ve been here 7 years.

3 years my husband got seriously sick and he had a surgery 2 years ago so we couldn’t apply for PR. Now he is fine and he is cured. 
 

What if I apply for 190 visa. Will be an option even he will be after 45?

Thanks again.
