Hi Debra,

My son is english and engaged to a Polish girl. I live in Queensland and they want to visit and possibly work. Immigration say Kasia is not entitled to apply for a work visa. Has anybody any ideas how my son can come over with his new bride to be and stay longer than a 3 month tourist visa?? Would appreciate any advice or information as to where to go for help with this.
