我和我爱人的PR截至登陆日期(Must not Arrive After)到今年10月28日就到期了。在过去的五年里,我们只短登过一次,待了两周。
同时还有两个娃,所以准备给他们申请101,本以为给孩子申请签证的时间应该很短,而且计划明年5月就长登,结果一看官网上说得14个月,太久了,
把之前的计划都打乱了,由于我们在英国工作生活,所以也不太可能10月底之前搞定所有这边的事情过去而且主要也不放心我爱人在澳洲单独带两个小宝宝。
我们查了一下,PR上的日期过期后可以申请157,给三个月期限入籍。官网是这么说的:
Subclass 157 Resident Return visa
1. You might be able to be granted this visa if you:
2. have lawfully spent at least one day in the past five years in Australia
3. have spent less than two years in the past five years in Australia
4. have been a permanent resident or an Australian citizen for the entire period spent in Australia
5. can show a compelling and compassionate reason for having to leave Australia or, if you are outside Australia, for leaving when you did
6. If you have been living outside Australia for more than three continuous months immediately before applying, you must also show that you were absent for a compelling and compassionate reason.
我们现在不太明白的是第5条:解释之前离开澳洲的理由。我们当时的情况就是短登,那应该怎么show a compelling and compassionate reason呢?
