Pre Visa

Hi,

I would like to know what is pre-visa? I applied for PR under Skilled Immigration to Australia and does it mean that I will get my PR only after Pre-Visa?

Thanks,
SR

Re: Pre Visa

Never heard of it, but probably your question would be better answered in the immigration forum.

Good luck...

SR,

You are probably referring to the pre-grant. Not everyone gets a pre-grant. Sometimes you get a grant straightaway if you qualify.

A pre-grant is only issued when you are applying for a visa that requires an 'Assurer'. This pre-grant requests that the required 'bond' is paid into the Commonwealth Bank of Au. Once done the visa is granted.

We didn't have an assurer but got a pre-grant letter. We went skilled independent and got the letter after we had paid the capital investment.
