You have to have held a permanent visa for at least 12 months before you can apply, The web site states 4 years residency in Australia with at least one of those years on a permanent visa.

hi Christine,

if i get a ctizenship after one year while on 857 visa..

will the terms of 857 still effect me ..can i leave the employer after that

Citizenship will overlap the rsms obligation?

Thanks in advance

Hey Cowboy,

 

I would take an educated guess at your question and say that if you are granted citizenship while on an 857 that it doesn't matter what the conditions of the 857 are? you are now an Australian Citizen!!

Only an educated guess though :)
