Hi, just to provide you with a little bit of re-assurance! We have spoken with the consulate team at the British Embassy in Vienna and in their experience the Austrian authorities really do try to work with people to find solutions (e.g. some sort of residence permit) and that deportation really is a last resort which happens in a very small number of cases. We have our fingers crossed for you and wish you luck. Please do let us know how you get along and feel free to use our Contact Form.
