Legislation that closed the non-contributory parent and other family visas on 2nd June 2014 was successfully disallowed by the Senate on 25th September. The closed visas will now re-open immediately.
Please note, however, that those visas lodged between 2nd June and 25 September are still invalid.
The following visa subclasses in the Family Stream of the Migration Programme are open to new applications: Parent Visa Subclass 103 Aged parent Visa – Subclass 804 Aged Dependent Relative Visa – Subclass 114 and Subclass 838 Remaining Relative Visa Subclass 115 and Subclass 835 Carer Visa Subclass 116 and Subclass 836 If you wish to apply for one of these visas, please contact us as soon as possible to make an on-shore application.
