Partner Visa waits increase as Employer Sponsored demand decreases
Peter Dutton has created a scandalous two-year waiting period and exorbitant costs for partner visas – flouting the Migration Act – and this is likely to worsen. Former Immigration Department Deputy Secretary Abul Rizvi reports. IMMIGRATION MINISTER David Coleman has at last allowed the 2018-19 Migration Program report to be published in early December.

Some great tips from the FWO!If you’re looking for work along the harvest trail, it’s important to know how to spot a bad apple. Here’s how you can protect yourself: 🍎 Be careful when finding work – avoid job offers that require upfront fees, include ‘free’ accommodation or guarantee a ‘quick visa’. 🍏 Know who you’re working for – before accepting a job, do some research on the employer and ask for an Australian Business Number (ABN). 🍎 Know what you should be paid – if you’re an adult casual worker picking fruit or vegetables and paid an hourly rate, you should get at least $24.36 per hour. 🍏 Find a suitable place to stay – you have the right to choose where you live but be wary of paying upfront for accommodation if you haven’t yet found a job. 🍎 Keep your own work records – download our free Record My Hours app to track the hours you work and how much you pick or pack.
