Hi,
I had applied for skilled - sponsored visa (176) in Aug 2009. It's been 16 months and there has been no change in application status. I know I'm at the bottom of the heap, but I have a question.

My brother (who is sponsoring me), is planning to start a franchisee business in Australia and is falling short of equity. If I agree to be an equity partner in the franchisee, will my visa processing get any faster, if I am investing money in the Australian Economy ?

If my PR can be speeded up, I am willing to set a fresh application in a different category (whichever visa category has faster processing for business sponsors)

Regards
Manumani

You can't buy your way into Australia. Well I expect the super rich can, but most of us can't.

What is your occupation and are you in processing category 3 or 4. This is pretty crucial information and difficult for anyone to advise without it.
