Hi All,
I'm a 475 visa holder (489 equivalent nowadays). In order to get 887 you need to show 1 year full time employment + 2 years residence in regional area.
I arrived to Adelaide in December 2014, and was there until November 2015 (11 months). During those 11 months I didn't get a professional job and the only jobs I managed to get where cash-in-hand restaurant jobs and door-to-door commission only jobs. For the cash-in-hand jobs is difficult to certify the hours...
In November I got a 6 month job offer in my profession in China and so I decided to come, and there are still 2 months more to finish my contract.
I am planning to come back to Adelaide in May and run a trading business with China, but, as I can extend my visa maximum until May 2017 by arriving in May I would only have 12 months and so wouldn't match the 24 months (11+12=23).
I am missing one month, and also would have the pressure to get 1 year full time experience so my question is, I would still be able to get 887 Visa?
- Shall I forget about it and maybe not come back in May as don't fulfill 887 conditions for this one month missing as well as it would be difficult to show the one year full time work?
- Are there any other visa options for my case?
- Is it true that if I go to a regional non-metropolitan area (small country town outside Adelaide) the requirements would be more relaxed in terms of both residence time and work time?
- Could I be nominated by South Australia for a new 489 4-year visa?
I wait for your feedback,
Regards,
