-
You may be allowed to enter only once. If so, you will need to apply for a new visa if you want to return to Australia again after you leave.

You may be able to travel to and from Australia as many times as you want while your visa is valid, but the time you spend in Australia cannot be more than the period of stay that you have been granted.

This regional pathway assists in the growth of regional Australia. If you are interested in this pathway, you can commence on a temporary visa and then transition to a permanent arrangement dependent upon your occupation and the location of employment.
