I migrated to Australia 2.5 years ago on a skilled visa as a permanent resident and have not left the country in that time. I have just booked a holiday to the US for 3 weeks and I thought it prudent to check that this is ok with the visa I have.
I can't quite remember the subclass but it was a skilled visa with sponsorship by a family member (not points based). I believe the Visa was phased out in mid 2007.
So long as the visa has not expired (check the visa label - it is valid for 5 years from the date of grant) all should be well.
Best regards.
