youngfreewild Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 We came to Australia from the UK on a 189 visa almost 4 years ago. We have lived here for the whole time. If we wanted to do some longer term travelling abroad, what implications do we need to consider? We want to make sure we can always come home to Australia.

VERYSTORMY Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 The best way would be to apply for and wait until granted your citizenship. The ability to travel on your PR visa will expire next year. After which you will need to apply for a resident return visa. This should be fine to obtain and will give you another five years, but the travel may then have implications for eligibility for citizenship on your return as to qualify you must not have spent more than 12 months out of Australia and no more than 90 days in the year prior to application.
