Hi,
I have several questions about the 188A Business Innovation and Investment (Provisional) visa (subclass 188).
Does it mean I can apply it once I start a business in Australia? Is there any limitation on the type of business? Am I eligible if I start a business like a restaurant or bar?
Also in the criteria: "for two out of the four fiscal years immediately before you are invited to apply, have had an ownership interest in an established business or businesses that had at least AUD500 000 turnover in each of those years", does the AUD500 000 turnover means the gross profit?
Last but not least, "At the time of invitation, you, your partner, or you and your partner combined must have total net business and personal assets of at least AUD800 000 that are lawfully acquired and available for legal transfer to Australia within two years of the visa being granted." Does the partner means my business partner?
Thanks
