hello guys

  • i'm a Belgian man who love to live and work in Australia. I have read lots of information on Aurstralian sites concern my travel. As an European i can travel with tourist visa for 3/6/12 months, BUT i may not work during my visit! I want to stablish a new life there and have read on site that i can apply for a substantive visa while i'm there.
    If they put 8523 on my visa, i can't apply for a substantive visa of bridge visa and have to return home.
    Can anybody help me please, how can i arrange this, some say: apply for 6 month visa and not 12 month, then they don't put tht 8523 on your visa and you can apply for another substantive visa for 2 years on base of cohabiting with someone etc.....
    Thanks all in advance

Why is it so hard to make friends in Australia?
