yes. I have had long term visa in the past. But last time I came visa exempt and did a border bounce. That really got them upset this entry from Australia by air after 3 weeks in Australia!
Thanks James. It will all be OK. I am getting married again and also have the twins. So Non-O will be the go. It isn't easy to get a ME Non-O from Australia any more. Because I travel a bit for work i need ME or extensions with re-entry permit.
