Hi all,
I am in process to submit my EOI for an SMC application. I know it is halted currently but will apply as soon as it opens. I am currently working as IT Consultant but as I dont have the relevant education requirements hence I cant claim experience for LTSSL & hence I am falling short of 10 points currently. I am thinking to include my wife in the application as she has done Masters so I can get the relevant points and qualify for the SMC.
My question is do I need to stay with my partner for 1 year before I can include her in the application and get the points ? We have already been living together for 7 months as of now. I spoke with the immigration over call center and they mentioned there is no requirement of 12 months but I have read posts here which says you need to stay for 12 months to include youe wife into your application. So I am not sure about it.
Thanks
