But why on earth would anyone want to have a 457 visa rather than an employer sponsored migration visa?

I'm not saying they would want to JAJ, I'm just assuming that that is what it is - if its not then great but believe it or not some of us do actually enter Australia on a 457 Visa and are quite happy about it!

Oh, I don't know

If it is a 457 visa then I think I read on here a few days ago that the ones for Perth were taking a little longer at the moment as DIMIA had a bit of an admin backlog.

If you also check out the forum search Geraldton has been discussed a few times. Wasn't it where Kala went ? She lived in the central parts and it was not exactly a pleasant place.
