Hi all,

My boyfriend is coming to Australia on a work/travel visa for 12 months and in that time we are planning on getting married.

However, we wont be getting married as soon as the 12 months begins.

This worries me as i know the CR-1 visa takes quite a while to process and if we dont give ourselves enough time his visa might be up before its approved.

Has anyone else been in this position? Will he have to return home or can they extend your stay while its being processed?

Thanks!
