VERYSTORMY Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Yes, but if you leave within two years to company can complain to the department that you obtained it fraudulently which can result in visa cancellation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, hkt I am by far a visa expert but just had a quick read on this and from what i can see your visa can only be cancelled if its proven you had no intention to stay with that employer and so applied fraudulently. This write up specifically does say - ''When an employer feels used and abused in the ENS process by their employee, yes they quite often do tell the department. This does not mean the department takes any action to follow up with the employee. In fact in the last 20 years we have never seen or heard of that occurring. I’ve seen many of examples of the department trying cancel an PR holder who obtained their residency through RSMS (187) but never for those who obtained it via the ENS (186) program.'' https://www.australiavisa.com/immigration-news/186-ens-employment-contract/ As i say ,i am no expert only letting you know what Google is throwing at me but a few different places seem to say the same thing.

Regards, hkt You may want to read the declaration you agreed to as part of the visa application. This should give you some clarity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
