lee74 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hi, can anyone advise, I am looking to bring my Mum over on a holiday/tourist visa if this visa does not state a restriction no further stay or 8503 does this mean we can apply for her new visa (Parent contributory) and would she get bridging visa until new visa comes thru?? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoll Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 So your mum is going to lie on the incoming passenger card and say that she is there for a holiday when in reality she intends to stay forever. DIAC dont really like that. Why not just apply for her CPV and let them know she is going to be here on a tourist visa for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She would be telling porkies on the incoming card if she had the intention of staying though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking for any positive ideas thanks. Visiting but with the intention of lodging a permanent visa application? Would she have all her worldly goods with her if she is not planing to go back? If so and there are any suspicions she would be in for a hard time at immigration and worst case scenario is she is refused entry. So yes it is possible but it is not the above board way to go about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
