conroys Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Hi,Still on the investor retirement visa: The immi web site states that What does this visa let me do?If you are granted this visa you can:work in Australia for up to 20 hours per week ...Is this 20 hours only applicable to the primary applicant or can both the applicant and spouse each work for 20 hours a week?And would it be possible to start a business and work for 20 hours in that business or does it only refer to salaried work?Any info will be much appreciated.Thanks.Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindylou Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Jack, if you read further on the site you'll see that this also applies to the spouse. Can't answer the second part, sorry!Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conroys Posted August 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Hi Cindy,Further on the site, I read:have your spouse accompany you to Australia. Does that necessarily mean 'allow your spouse to also work in Australia'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindylou Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Hi JackIf you check here you'll see thisWorking in AustraliaYou must have no intention of working full-time in Australia (you, and your spouse if applicable, will only be allowed to work up to 20 hours per week while in Australia.)Cheers,Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
