student/last remaining relative/bridgeing visa help!

[Guest darh479]

Hi,

 

I am currently studying in Perth on a student visa and will soon be eligible to lodge a last remaing relative visa as my brother will soon have PR. My question is, will I get a bridging visa to allow me to stay in oz because my student visa will soon be coming to an end?

 

Also, will I still be able to work on the bridging visa and if so how many hors per week, as I am currently working 20hrs per week on the student visa.

 

Thanks.

You should get a bridging visa. It will allow you to work same number of hours as the student visa did.

Hi,

Im in the same situation! Me and my fiance are on a WHV which expires in August. We are applying for a remaining relative visa asap but i have been told that we will be granted a "Bridging Visa A" which you can still work on! Hope this helps!
