Hi guys, we just applied for the 820 partner visa and the department gave me a BVC- no work rights. even though I held a BVA with work rights before lodging the 820 application. now I'm thinking of applying work rights on BVC but how go about it. my partner is Australian citizen and works full time as an RN. Any kind of help is much appreciated. thank you very much.

You can apply for work rights using the following form: https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/Forms/Documents/1005.pdf

However, it is not as easy as applying for work rights. You will need to demonstrate that you are facing financial hardship and need to work.

yes I'm aware but I haven't go that stage yet. when I applied for the partner visa they rejected it saying I didn't supply two 888 forms even when I did. do you have any tips on of this ? thanks

Are you sure this is the only reason that it was rejected? I know someone who did not supply any 888's and their visa was approved.

yeah just because of 888 forms even when they were there. and even my lawyer said he has never seen something like this before. if anyone have any tips on how to make the application stronger, please post. all sorts help is much appreciated.

It is best for you to tell us what evidence you have provided.

However, even with the strongest application ever you still need to meet schedule 3 requirements. If you don't meet schedule 3 a strong application will not help you.
