PR and 820 Question

Hi All,

This is the question for the more experienced, my wife has been in the country for six years, the majority of that time she was on a student visa. We have been married for over a year and our spouse visa is currently being processed by the Brisbane office.

My question is what is required for her to obtain PR? She has now graduated her university degree and looking for work.

Also as most of us are aware the wait times are well over a year now. when it comes time to apply for the 801 can the time spent waiting for the 820 to be processed be considered. For example you can only apply for 801 2 years after the 820 is granted, however we have already been waiting a year for the 820 to be processed, once approved can we apply for the 801 only after a year?

Thanks
Scotty.

Thanks Ladies, that makes me feel better, I have not looked into the 801 at all yet, I'm presuming there is another fee? hoping not, anyway good to know we can apply for the 801 in 12 months. Evidence is evidence I guess even if I double up, we have been updating evidence every month or so since lodging so there's no shortage of it.
