Hi Karl. I'm an admin for one of the biggest skilled migration groups in Facebook. I have been following your work for close to 4 years now. Although I personally do not use an agent for my visas, I have seen throughout the years your dedication to help, sharing of knowledge, your transparency and professionalism. This is why you're one out of two agencies I trust and recommend when people ask me for recommendations (although I don't tell them to refer my name to you). I want you to know that the way you and your associates present yourselves through these videos / your website, people including myself can tell you're genuine and that sets you apart from the rest.

Currently, the business is not doing so well, so I’m looking for opportunity to sell the business. Can I sell the business right from the moment I get nomination from QLD, or I have to wait for visa grant, which probably takes a further 6 - 8 months? - Migration QLD also mentioned that I need to operate the business for 3 years from visa grant, does it mean it must be the same business, if yes I found it’s contrary to what they mentioned earlier?

Thanks for the video. My question is, once your visa was granted, you travel to Australia within the year that you you were given in order to activate the visa and then you have up to five years to move to Australia. So, my doubt is what if you do not go to the state that sponsored you for whatever reason, lets say Queensland, while offshore you find one in Victoria and you stay there. The five years have passed and you have the chance to either apply to the Resident Return visa or Australian Citizenship, so what happens there, is the state that sponsored you involve in that process? Does the state have the power to block your citizenship application or resident return visa?

Hi karl, If we move interstate would state government say to federal government that applicant just used nomination to get PR and moved away and cancel PR?

[@ailsaustralia]

No they will not say that Saroj for you are entitled to move

[@haiderhamayun9191]

Great information worth watching

[@ailsaustralia]

Glad you think so!

[@oleksandramyronenko9689]

Love the video ❤😂

[@RC-gw7xv]

Thank you Karl, this is very informative! Would you be able to help shed some light on whether we can enter Australia to visit another state for a short holiday before relocating permanently after granted the 491 visa? This would mean that I still won't have a permanent address in Australia after my first entry on the 491/190 visa and woud only have it once I relocate permanently.

[@ailsaustralia]

You can enter Australia at any location. It is just that later where you live is what matters. Have a good flight

[@RC-gw7xv]

@@ailsaustralia Thanks Karl!

[@parveengill8556]

I'm so confused. I've have 2 separate agents tell me that if I move then I will face issues.

[@ailsaustralia]

There are always agents out there that perhaps should not be agents or perhaps are just not experienced enough to know better Parveen. If the department wanted you to stay in the region that sponsored you it would a condition on your visa, it is as simple as that.

[@mitosdac]

This is really good. What if is a lifestyle change?

[@ailsaustralia]

Thanks but not sure of your question

[@sammy1107]

So say I was granted a 491 for qld, I wouldn't be penalised for my job being in not in the designated postcodes?

[@ailsaustralia]

Breaching the conditions on a 491 visa can result in the visa being cancelled, so not advisable

[@sharif504]

Could you please make a video about being married while Ur visa in processing and how it will affect your skill visa point like in 189, 190 or 491 please. A great deal of people waiting for 2-3 years but can't get married bcos of points claim.

[@ailsaustralia]

Hi Sharif yes we will be publishing such a video in April. Thanks for your seggestion

[@myeong_estella5444]

I would like to clarify for the current 491 visa, does the legislation apply currently. If granted 491 visa I move around to other state but stay in regional place.

Hi, Myeong If you need assistance, please book a time to discuss your circumstances. We also have articles on our web site already. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.

[@idiotjoker182]

hi, karl wanted to know if a person after getting invited say from RDA NSW for 491 can move to SYD and work there until/before he gets his 491 granted? FYI the person is on bridging visa A of 491?

[@ailsaustralia]

Your BVA will have certain conditions that you must comply with but I doubt it says you must only work and live in a regional area. There would be no issues in staying in Sydney until the visa is granted, then after grant the grace period is to move within 3 months of the grant date.

[@user-uu2xs6gl1k]

Thanku Karl for proving correct information. I got my 190 in Western Australia. If I want to move the state, should I inform to migration services or WA govt about that ? And does it make any problem while applying citizenship ? Thanks
