Bridging Visa
In most cases a bridging visa enables you stay lawfully in Australia until a substantive visa application (or protection visa application) is determined, or where granted in association with judicial review, until those proceedings are completed. In some cases a bridging visa enables you to make arrangements to leave (and possibly return), finalise your immigration matter or wait for an immigration decision.
There are four main types of bridging visas; A, B, C and E.
Working on a Bridging visa:
You may be allowed to work in Australia on a bridging visa depending on your conditions. If your bridging visa does not let you work, or has restrictions on working, you may be able to apply for different type of bridging visa that lets you work.
Important note: if you are planning on staying in Australia you MUST ensure that you maintain 'lawful' status - that is, you must make an application for another visa before your current visa expires.
Please book a phone or Skype consultation with one of our experienced migration professionals to help you understand your position and options to proceed.
