Note: It is suggested that the main enterprise should make profits in the second fiscal year of the audit year, that is, the company should make profits in the second fiscal year of two fiscal years with extra turnover.

188A to 888A Conditions for permanent residence:

During the period of holding 188 visa, he has owned and operated his enterprise in Australia for two years, and before applying for permanent residence, the turnover of the Australian enterprise reached more than 300,000 Australian dollars, and he must hold more than 5 1% of the shares; If the annual turnover is more than 400,000 Australian dollars, it needs to hold more than 30%, and the listed company needs to hold more than 10%;

2. The principal applicant has lived for 65,438+0 years in the two years since he started his business.

3. In addition to the above requirements, two of the following three conditions must be met:

A) The net assets of the company reach 200,000 Australian dollars;

B) The family net assets reach 600,000 Australian dollars (including the company net assets of 200,000 Australian dollars);

C) Hire two local full-time employees (one year before applying for the 888 visa).

Note: If you have completed your business in the previous two years and failed to apply for 888 within four years of the visa188a, you can still apply for an extension, continue to complete your business in the next two years and apply for 888 again, as long as it is within the validity period.

Then, as we all know, 188A visa is only a temporary visa, and it can only be converted into 888A permanent resident visa after meeting the business conditions. What problems should we pay attention to?

1. When do you need to invest in business?

It is generally recommended that the applicant of 188A transfer the business investment funds to the personal account of the Australian applicant within 1 1 month after the business starts. Applicants who have been engaged in business 12 months should have professional auditors to check the financial statements and determine that their personal net assets are not less than 600,000 Australian dollars, including commercial net assets of not less than 200,000 Australian dollars. Please note that the stamp duty required to purchase real estate cannot be counted as personal net assets.

2. If it is expected to remit 800,000 Australian dollars to Australia when applying for 188A, but actually only 700,000 Australian dollars, will it affect the state government guarantee of 888?

188A visa ends once it is processed, which means that as long as you get a four-year temporary visa, your previous application ends. Once you come to Australia, the previously written business plan can be changed, and the actual remittance does not need to reach the estimated amount at that time, but the actual remittance of 188A must be no less than 600,000 Australian dollars. Generally speaking, applicants are advised to choose businesses that meet the state guarantee according to the consultation before opening, and then inform immigration lawyers to make customer visits after opening, and then inform the state government that the business in Australia has opened.

3. Do I have to keep the remittance receipt when I remit money from China?

It is suggested that the applicant keep the transfer receipt, because the visa officer has the right to ask the applicant to provide the overseas transfer receipt according to the specific circumstances when hearing the case. Therefore, even if you get a permanent residence visa, you should develop the good habit of keeping the transfer receipt for 5 years.

4.888A When will it officially open for business?

The business of a physical store is generally based on the delivery date, which can be seen in the business purchase contract and the lawyer's delivery letter; In trade business, for insurance reasons, applicants are generally advised to start with the down payment.

5. How much do you need to do in the past two years?

Generally speaking, the newly-built physical stores must be lower in 1 year, but the turnover in the second year must exceed 300,000. Generally speaking, the export business will recommend a turnover of not less than 280,000 in the first year and not less than 320,000 in the second year. The mature business purchased should refer to the turnover of the shopkeeper before. The turnover in two years should be almost the same, and it will never be said that there is such a big difference between 200,000 in the first year and 300,000 in the second. Simply put, the business turnover of about 200,000 yuan is not less than 300,000 yuan, and the business turnover of more than 300,000 yuan is not less than 500,000 yuan.

6. Can your spouse be the main applicant for 888 permanent residence?

The principal applicant of 188A can let his spouse be the principal applicant of 888, but it must be from beginning to end.
