Visa Refusals

Receiving a negative outcome of your visa application can cause a lot of stress and is a truly heartbreaking experience for many people. It is important to note that sometimes a visa refusal is not the final stop on your migration pathway and you still may have an avenue to achieve a positive outcome.

Visa Cancellations

The Department of Home Affairs may issue a Notice of Intention to Consider Cancelling Your Visa (NOICC), or a Notice of Visa Cancellation. In both instances, it is imperative that you consider the reasons outlined within the correspondence and take action to address the matters within a very strict time frame.

Character Issues and Visa Refusals

All applicants for an Australian visa that are over the age of 18 years old should meet the character requirements. What is the definition of the character requirements and how do you meet the requirements?

Health Waiver & Requirements

Dependent upon factors including, the visa application type and the purpose of the stay in Australia, applicants and family members may be required to undertake health examinations to prove that they satisfy the Australian health requirements before their visa may be granted.
