Hi mates, a quick question to check with you all experts. In the Form 80 question 35. Have you been to Australia before? in my case I had a one-year business visitor visa and came to Australia two times during that year. My question is Do I NEED TO ADD DETAILS OF BOTH THOSE VISITS like arrival date and departure date or DO I NEED TO INCLUDE ONLY THE VISA DETAILS?

In one online guide, I noted that we should in such case include only the visa details?  

Does anyone have some experience or view on this pls?

hi Provide as much detail as you can, I have similar case. I was on Student visa Before and then went back to my Home country. Its better to give all details.

Hi Experts, I have one serious question to ask, I applied 887 last December.  I live in Queanbeyan NSW, next to Canberra as my designated region. I got a full time job in Queanbeyan but their training will be held in Canberra. As of 489 visa holder I know, I can't live and work in Canberra. What happen if I done my training in the other store. Do you think it will be any consequences ? 

If you are traveling Work related or Annual Leave, Will not impact your 489.

FYI, you can live accross Australia and work, but to qualify for your Visa 887, you need to meet this requirement (2 yrs of Stay and  equivalent to 1 year of Full time work).

Thanks

Hi,

Name appears on the passport takes as reference. That should be every where else. ( except higher education certificate's name)

Marriage certificate may be the right document.

Specially police reports' name and passport name should be tally.

Hello mates on a same boat to 887 visa. I lodged my application for 887 June 2018. I have been desperately waiting for the decision like you guys and have financial issue because most jobs in my area are out of regional postcodes. I live in Gold Coast. I have a few job offers from out of rural worrying it might be affecting my visa decision. I am still with 489 visa so I cannot work out of regional areas theoretically. I do not know if they crosscheck with ATOs when they assess my visa. I have already worked and lived in regional areas for more than 2 years, but just really really fed up with waiting and see how they work; it is extremely frustrating to see they grant visas for the last two weeks! Almost nothing! I have lodged complaints and emailed several times to tell our situation as well as to raise attention with no use. Could you guys let me know if you ever worked in out of designated postcodes after lodging 887 visa and got a grant after all? Me and my family might starve to death before grant if they keep delaying grant...

Thanks in advance,

Hi mate, the frustration that you are going through right now is well understood. We all are in the same boat some or rather. This is a very tricky question and if I were you I will not move out of regional areas as you are so close to the grant and almost there, so pls pls just hang on...you can do this.  as after all these hard work, why we risk.....

Hi have been in training in CBD as well, but as long as you are paid from the current location it will be fine.

If your 489 visa got expired you can use your bridge visa that has no restriction to work or live, but if you still on 489 you need to wait for it mate. My case is similar as yours but I am in Sunshine Coast QLD.

As far as i know your 489 visa conditions roll over to your bridging visa though it might show that you have "no conditions"; before taking any step i would highly recommend checking with DIBP or MARA consultant.

Information on DIBP page regarding Bridging visa below. It states the grant letter will tel you about these conditions and you can check it in VEVO. My grant letter states Nil conditions, just want to check with someone already in Bridging that could check VEVO.

I also called and ask immi and they told me that you are good to go anywhere on bridging visa.
