Re: Tourist visa 600, 8558 condition max 12 months stay in 18 months

You calculate this by looking backwards from any day and counting how many days they have been in Australia in the previous 18 months. This always needs to be less than 365 days. In your example, if...

Re: Visas help

The company do still need to sponsor the dependents as well as the primary applicant, but any company that won’t do that for a family should probably be given a wide berth anyway.

Re: permanent partner visa/ resident return

It's not really "grey". If you're outside Australia when your permanent visa expires (the "must not arrive after" date) then your visa has expired and your permanent resident status no longer...

Re: UK Counselling Qualifications recognised in Oz?

Absolutely! You don’t even need to have a job to like in the first place. You may have some geographical restrictions depending on which visa you were granted.

‘My advice would be … spend the required time in Tasmania and then you can move north if that is what you still want.

You’re not throwing anything away … once you have a visa and arrive in Australia, you can do any job you want, you’re not restricted to the occupation you nominated. If you have solid advice...

Re: Nurse applying for 190

You need the ANMAC skills assessment in place before you submit your EOI. You will need AHPRA registration to actually practice in Australia once your visa is granted.

Re: Citizenship by Descent for children in UK query?

There’s no difference in the ‘quality’ of the citizenship based on age at application, so I would apply now to get it out the way. The only long term thing to be aware of is that citizenship...

Re: Young family member (UK) to AU - options

3 years on a Working Holiday Visa (WHV) is achievable if the required amount of 'specified work' is undertaken. This requirement may ease, if and when a trade deal is actually signed rather than just...

Re: Visitor Visa Pricing

There's nothing indirect about it; they do not like multiple onshore rollovers of temporary visas and the charge is intended to discourage this. Absent Covid, it would be extremely unlikely that you...

Re: Visitor Visa Pricing

There is no way around this for a subclass 600 visa subsequent application. You could look into a subclass 408 'Covid' visa. There are, though, plenty of flights available out of Australia and no...

Re: Processing time for 461 visa

No - there is absolutely no financial requirement. My view is that it's just a very low priority cohort of applicants as far as the Department is concerned.
