changing jobs on 457 visa ??
I am wondering if anyone can help me, I am currently employed as a CNC machinist/toolmaker on a 457 visa. The problem is my company is very quiet and their is talk of closure - if this happens I know I have been told I only have about 28 days to find another job.
So I am wondering how hard it is to change jobs if I find another company to sponsor me and also the cost involved.
any advice will be much appreciated
Thanks

This is a question not many would have had to contemplate seriously so I would suggest you put this post on the immigration forum where hopefully you will have a better chance of getting the advice........

Good luck.
