Residency application is pending but current work visa is about to expire (Request to Section 61 , IPT)
Hi There,
I lodged my SMC application in Feb 2020 based on 13+ month job from Nov 2019 to Dec 2020 and processing time was showing just 9 months, I am working on a fixed term contract till end of this year.
Contract might not be extended for further term so my question we are aware that INZ has backlog of thousands of applications so in case application is being allocated in Nov/Dec 2020 then job will be ending in Dec 2020 so residency will be declined ??

I am actively looking for job but there is no luck so far, in case if i couldn't get job before visa expires then can we contact IPT (Immigration and Protection Tribunal) to request visa under Section-61 to stay lawfully and search for another job
as because INZ couldn't complete in an year

Seeking your advice ....Please share your experience if someone applied visa under Section 61.
