Lou8670 Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 457 i think.planning to escape the NHS! Well there's lots of advise on here you'll find helpful. If you go for a 457 visa make sure you know what it does and doesn't entitle you to. The 457 visa is a temporary work visa which isn't intended to lead to permanent residency. It's great if your job is in demand, you want to get to Australia quickly and escape the NHS for a few years but if you're wanting to migrate permanently I'd suggest having a look into a permanent resident visa. It will take a little longer to apply and will cost you more money but you won't have a time limit, you'll be entitled to healthcare and, if you have any, your children will be entitled to a free education. I'd suggest running it by a migration agent who will be able to explain all of your options and the ins and outs of the different visas. Good luck and keep asking questions! They're a friendly, helpful bunch on PP. Lou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
