Multi year contract, multi year WP?

[ozmeldo]

If you were to land a contract for multiple years, would that negate the need to make a new WP annually? Would they issue a WP good for the duration of the contract? Thanks.

It is possible to get a 2 year work permit.

Is that for anyone or BOI only?

 

I have an open ended contract which has been ongoing for eight years, never been offered more than a 12 month WP ?

Thanks UJ. So it's possible ?

 

Crossy, maybe if your contract date was fixed? They could stamp a date certain.

Anyone

Perhaps somebody only applied for a one year work permit for you.

Cheer Joe. It's coming up for renewal, I will prod the relevant lady to try for a 2 year WP ?
