I am a parent with two kids the same age as yours and can't imagine why you would want to "leave them" in the country as you put it you talk about it like it's leaving a piece of furniture or something

Legally there's probably nothing to prevent you from moving to Australia.

No doubt the hordes will be along shortly to provide their moral opinion.

Sure you can - the only problem you have is if you want to take the children with you and your ex says you cant in which case they cant go and by inference you couldnt go either.

Gads that is a bit harsh don't you think? You don't know anything at all about OP circumstances. Also men do this all the time and nobody bats an eyelid, if OP was a man would you be so quick to judge? Even if so, again you know nothing about the circumstances. IMO, is just not constructive to be judgemental like that.

Is your husband Australian?

He posts on here - has recently had his PR granted.

Re: I am a parent,dad has kids,can i leave country
 

Is this a case where he married after visa grant? Or are spouse + children included on same visa?

Totally agree................against all my morals, beliefs and every law of nature regarding what a "mother" should be.:thumbdown:

Re: I am a parent,dad has kids,can i leave country
 

From memory, he got PR alone, and his since met the lady and wants to sponsor her as his spouse.

She explains her situation here:

But she wasn't asking for people's moral beliefs she was asking whether legally she was allowed to. This is the Immigration Forum, threads don't go off thread.

Exactly bloody right!!

Bloody hell chill out, that's a bit over the mark.

Re: I am a parent,dad has kids,can i leave country
 

You have your opinion.......I have mine..........some women will do anything for a man, if only she was that enthusiastic about her kids.

Re: I am a parent,dad has kids,can i leave country
 

Just be warned, if you walk out on your kids now, you probably won't get them back. Fair or no, the courts will take a dim view of a mother who abandons her children to take off with her lover to the other side of the world. That's how they will see it, so be prepared for a backlash.
