Hi everyone. My name is Vanishree. I have been offered a job (as a registered nurse) in Perth (Australia). The Hospital nominated me for a visa (which includes my hubby and x2 kids). It is a Business 457 (long stay) visa. We have already sent all our documentation to the Immigration dept. However - we would like to know how long it actually takes to get a visa? What are the chances of it being granted? Do we need to have oodles and oodles of money in the bank for it to be granted?

I am very anxious about the visa. We have already sold most of our possessions. So we desperately need for the visa to be granted. We are all in good health, I have not lied about my qualifications and we have no criminal record. So I hope that it would be granted.
If anyone is aware of any other requirement, please advise.
Thanx
Vanishree
