What do you guys think of this?

A company in Australia offered my dad a job. The first thing he asked them was what was the possibility of residency, because he didn't want to move his family's entire lives half way across the world for a few years. They told us in 2 years we could apply and they would sponsor us.

We go and we love it there. Made a ton of friends. Thought we would live there forever.

2 years come and they tell us to do another 2 years.

Those 2 years pass, and they say "Well, actually, it's too much money, so byyyeeeeee."

We contacted immagration and they told us there was no way we could stay despite living there for 6 years. They paid for our flights but that was it.

That's horrible :(
@Adaydreambeliever It is. :( Moving back here has been really hard on me and it's put a strain on our family.

@lauriethecolourful it will do.. you didn't want to return, you were forced to do so.. that's never going to be easy.. And who wouldn't want to stay there - the quality of life is so much better..
