RRV subclass 155 - Renewal Dilemma

[Manish Mirani]

Hello Forum Members

I hope you are doing fine.

I would really appreciate if you can advise me on the below query for RRV.

 

- I was granted 190 class PR while I was overseas in the year 2014

- I moved to Australia in 2018 and lived there from Jan 1st 2018 till Feb 5^th,2020 with few days overseas between this duration.

- I had applied subclass 155 visa on 28^th December 2018 and was granted a 1 year RRV expiring on 28^th December 2019

- I had applied for subclass 155 visa and on 1^st Feb 2020 and was rejected as I did not finish exact 730 days in Australia.

- However, I had re-applied on Feb,5th 2020 and was granted subclass 155 RRV visa expiring on 2 Feb 2025.

I am currently overseas from march 2020 and I have not been able to come back due to COVID and other personal circumstances, However, I believe I still satisfy the 730 days in 5 years rule.

Is it possible for me to reapply for subclass 155 in order to maximise the duration of visa(i.e from feb 2025 to feb 2026 or later)?

 

Thanks and Best Regards

Manish

Yes

Thanks for the quick update Paul.

I appreciate it.

I intend to extend the validity of my RRV as much as possible.

If you can advise on how the dates are calculated and if there are any factors that could possibly prevent me from getting extension would be highly helpful.

Thanks alot in advance.
