doing a geographical 10 Posted December 4, 2011 Hi I'm on a 457 visa and want to go for 856 visa. I havent done 2 years on a 457 yet, but have lodged my skills assessment recently (its pending). If my employer tries to get me nominated now, and for some reason I don't pass my skills assessment, the nomination will have expired by the time I have done 2 years on the 457. So is there any limit to the amount of times I can be nominated for the 856 for the same employer? Cheers.
