Partner Visas Sponsorship Sender: WESTLYThe good ship breastanic is fully booked. In all your circumstances, you might be able to make a case that an AoS is unnecessary, but if a discretionary AoS is...
I'm from Norway, and have been told that I automatically lose my Norwegian citizenship if I choose to become an Australian citizen. That's something I never want to do because I am and will always feel like a Norwegian. Permanent residency is all that I want as long as we are free to go back to Norway or other countries for longer periods (because of my qualifications). I do not have PR in Australia; I'm here now on an extended tourist visa with my wife and daughter. Since there is an 8503 condition (no further stay), we will have to wait until we come back to Norway before we potentially can start applying for PR for me. Our daugther is 7 months old, and has both a Norwegian and an Australian pbuttport (which I believe she can have until she turns 18 or 20). We would ideally like to come and go as we like in both countries. My wife has PR in Norway and is able to do so. Have heard from friends that if you lose you PR you will most likely never be granted one again, and can have problems even getting back to Oz on shorter visas.
