What happens if I have lived in regional Australia but can´t meet the requirements to be granted a permanent visa after three years ?
A second SIR visa may be granted if you have complied with the conditions of your initial SIR visa. You will not be reassessed against age, English language ability, skill and recent work experience criteria which were satisfied for the grant of your initial SIR visa. Note : you can only be granted one more SIR visa. If granted, the second SIR visa will be valid for a maximum period of 12 months. If, at the end of this period, you have still not accumulated the necessary period of residence and/or employment to apply for permanent residence, and you are not eligible for the grant of another type of visa, you will be required to depart Australia.
