Applying for P.R in Australia
Hiya,
I have just been granted a 457 visa with Victorian nursing registration. I was informed by my H.R that I can apply for P.R after 3 months and I would want to place my son and de facto spouse on this P.R visa-is this possible and how long does the process take ?
thanks

Re: Applying for P.R in Australia
hiya,
I guess it depends on the type of visa you are applying for. We have recently been granted an 856 in Melbourne and the application took 4 weeks from being lodged to being granted. That included 2 weeks for further medical tests so 856's seem to be pretty fast at the moment.
In terms of your partner and son, were they sponsored as part of your 457 application and will any sponsorship for PR include them?
Just wondering, who are you working for in Melbourne?
