Concessions Announced for certain family visa applicants affected by COVID-19 travel restrictions
Some categories of visa require applicants to be outside of Australia at the time the visa is granted. Travel restrictions associated with COVID-19 are affecting visa applicants who are currently based in Australia.
The government has announced that changes will be implemented in early 2021 that would allow certain family visas to be granted while the visa applicant is in Australia. This will be a temporary concession for people in Australia and who are unable to travel offshore to be granted the visa due to COVID-19 related border closures.
The concession will apply to certain applicants for the following Family visa subclasses:
  • Child (subclass 101) visa
  • Adoption (subclass 102) visa
  • Dependent Child (subclass 445) visa
  • Prospective Marriage (subclass 300) visa
  • Partner (subclass 309) visa
Further information will be available in early 2021.
