489 Visa granted

[cheryh79]

Hi,

 

I was granted 489 Visa today and some of the question i would like to clarify. Hope you guys can help.

 

1. do i need to report with all my family members when i make the first entry?

2. what does it meant by 8539 - MUST STAY IN SPECIFIED AREA?

3. what does it meant by Initial Stay Date 06 February 2018?

 

Thank you.

Q quick google tells me... "This visa allows skilled workers to live and work in specified regional areas in Australia for up to four years"

 

If it was anything like my visa (almost 5 years ago, perm one)... you send off all your adult passports and they get a page stuck-in - the visa. I don't think you need to report to anyone.

You have been granted a "regional sponsored visa" so must live and work in the area for which you applied for the visa

so number 8539 does mean anything?

That would just be the condition number, like the no further stay is 8534
