Guest Ollsta Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 due to my own negligence, I am in a bit of a pickle! I got offered sponsorship as a head chef through my job which I started last april when i arrived in Oz. We applied for 457 in July which was (very wrongly) refused in november and now am currently in application to the MRT. I was under the impression on application for a 457 i went onto a bridging visa, this is not the case and now I have been working with the same employer for close to a year. Im not too sure what i can do, besides keep quiet and hope for the best, but id much rather come clean and admit my ignorance to the DIAC however i don't think they will take this lightly. Do I have any other options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest carlhall Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Hi, I am under the impression that a bridging visa only comes into effect when your present visa expires, as for your other part of the question I would suggest seeing a migration agent and getting professional advice. An agent would give you accurate and sound advice. This is what you need in your situation. Good luck with everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aussie In Brisbane Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 My friend had the same problem. She used a migration agent here in Brisbane. Miklos Rakos at Star Migration. You would need to find the contact details. But he helped her out. Good luck with it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
