Hi all, 

I am a self-employed deliver driver, holding a visa 489, I just wonder how can I provide evidence of my 35 working hours when I lodge visa 887?

This is what I have done for the job:

1. Registered ABN and GST (Less than 75000 a year, Simpler BAS)

2. Invoices showing my weekly salary that gets into my account

However, should I get the reference letter from the company I am currently working for? My boss and I are not really in employee - employer relationship , I am one of his sub-contractor / driver, so would the CO consider this letter as valid? We have no contract signed. 

Just want to keep everything on track! 

Would anyone can share the experience?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

KingF

If you are self employed you should be able to demonstrate that you worked arleast 35 hrs a week. As far as your tax documents is concerned it should be your quarterly bas lodgements, ato tax receipts end of the year tax report. Make sure your invoices got the hrs you worked on it for each week or fortnight. And the employment letter shuld be saying that your are a full-time contractor worked for 35hrs weekly.

He asked the people who have been contacted by case officer for English request to share there details with him. He even said if someone doesn't want to share there personal details its ok he just need to see the example of a request letter so he can complain to immigration minister.

We don’t get bridging visa while in overseas  after 489 expires ..., and some says we don’t get grants for 887 when we are in overseas.

am waiting for international flights to start to reach Aus ASAP.

covid-19 put us in a big rick.

dont know what to do...hmm

With limited knowledge i Have you can't apply for for bridging visa or extend your existing bridging visa B when you are overseas. Whenever travel resumes you need to apply for visitors visa with all your supporting documents you have from your 887 visa such as existing expired visa and explain your situation through a cover letter. Hope that helps

Hi 

Currently, i am on visa 489. I need a few clarifications

1) Does Uber eat work for 35 hr/w  can be considered as full-time work for PR887 (If yes any additional doc I need for it)

2)I paid Second Installment for wife English VCA during 489 grant ( for 887 again I need to pay or IELTS required)

For your first question.

Work claimed by Uber drivers etc --------------------------------------------- We have had a number of inquiries around claiming 12 months of work for the 887 visa (which is the PR step for 489 visa holder) where the work is as an Uber driver. We have received the following policy advice from DHA "...To meet the work requirement of a Skilled Regional 887 visa, the applicant must demonstrate they have worked 35 hours per week, with this work being full time. Where necessary, a visa 887 applicant may "add together" the hours worked in two part-time or casual positions to meet the full-time work requirement. For Uber, taxi and food delivery drivers, the department would consider their employment as contractor and self-employed. Evidence provided as part of a visa application would need to show turnover and costs to reflect the client having worked full time for 35 hours per week. This evidence can include, but is not limited to, ATO Tax Notification, fuel and vehicle costs, bank statements, profit/loss statement..."

To everyone saying we are not TRs, read the below notification. We are TRs. We can withdraw $10K and if you can’t support yourself even after that, you can leave the country.

Good news for those who have just gotten 489 and have been laid off, their time in Australia will be counted towards work experience requirements for PR if they get reemployed after the pandemic.
