<blockquote rel="ava_garde06">Hello joining this thread.
I'm already here in Sydney as PR since 18Feb2015. I lodged my Skilled visa June2009 pa pero Oct2014 lang na grant. I got married Mar 2010 and we had a son mAr2012. Umandar lang yun visa ko ulit starting Jan2014.
Nun pina update sa kin ng CO yun records ko, my mistake was dko tnag as migrating dependent yun asawa ko. So I need to file a separate visa application for him. The good thing out of this naman, automatic na nakasama sa visa grant yun anak namin. So yun sa kanya na lang intindihin ko.
I'll back read this thread for tips and guidelines. 🙂

Hi! kung nasa Sydney na kayo, ang best way para makasama mo agad ang partner mo is thru 820 visa (onshore partner/spouse visa application) eto yung route na pinili namin. Nag entry si hubby as tourist and luckily wala naman no further stay condition ang visitor visa niya so, nakapag lodge kami while he's here and may bridging visa siya which allows him to work/study here while waiting for his visa grant. Mas pinili namin to at least magkasama na agad. Hindi ko siya naisama sa PR ko kasi d pa naman kami kasal that time na mag apply ako and hindi din kami de facto. Ang catch lang significantly more expensive ang onshore visa application. You can check the website for the exorbitant fee as of 1 Jan 2015.
