urgent prayer request!

I don't know how many of you will read this before we know something, but We have found out that I may not be able to keep my job at the salon. See, as we've said through Robert I am only cleared for 20hrs. per week. Well, I had a conversation with my boss last night and if I can't work full time then they don't want to hire me. So I called immigration to explore our options once again. They said I can apply for a 457 work visa however in this, I must be sponsored by my employee and there are regulations and obligations. Basically my job would have to up my pay from, $15.37/hr to 19.20/hr. and they would have to let me work 42 hrs. instead of 38. This is only to even apply for this visa and both my employer and I have to apply and pay fees. Basically, it will be alot of work for them to employ me but it is my only option. So, please please pray that they agree to work with me on this form of visa and if they do then we have to pray that I get approved for it .But, honestly if they agree to it, it would be a miracle and then I wouldn't even worry about getting approved because God has it in the bag.
I have been praying all morning. I know God has the power to make it happen, and I feel for this whole process of even finding this job has been such a God thing. I have see his hand in it so much already and I just wouldn't understand the reasoning for shutting it all down now just so I can go job searching all over again and have another month with no income! as you can see I am passionate. haha but I will trust in God and his will for us. I know he is mighty and that his favor is on us. We will keep you updated and thank you for your prayers.

There may be more options available to you apart from just the 457 visa. Log onto www.immi.gov.au and look at the other General Skilled Visa options. Good Luck.
