{"id":814,"title":"Bridging Visa","advertisement_flag":false,"content":"\n\u003cp\u003eA bridging visa is a temporary visa that allows you to stay lawful in Australia. Usually, it is granted automatically and is therefore easily ignored by visa applicants. However, there are a couple of things you ought to be aware of. This visa gives you fundamental understanding on this.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is A Bridging Visa\u003c/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa\u003c/strong\u003e is granted when you are applying and waiting for the decision of another visa. Following is one example showing when a \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa\u003c/strong\u003e is needed:\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg width=\"600\" title=\"bridging visa situation.jpg\" alt=\"bridging visa situation.jpg\" class=\"discussion-image\" src=\"////bridging%20visa%20situation.jpg////\"\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the picture, you can see the student has finished his study and is eligible for another visa which he wishes to get. However, because of such a large number of visa applications, he has to wait for his visa application to be processed and during the waiting time, he is granted a \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa\u003c/strong\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSubstantive Visa\u003c/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the visa the student wants to apply for and the student visa he's holding. The name is used to distinguish the main visa with the \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa\u003c/strong\u003e. It is almost every known visa except a \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa\u003c/strong\u003e, a Criminal Justice Visa or an Enforcement Visa.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBridging Visa A\u003c/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa\u003c/strong\u003e which is granted in the picture is \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e. You are normally given this visa immidiately after you apply for another visa.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, a \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e only comes to effect when the current substantive visa, which is the student' student visa in this case, has expired.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg width=\"600\" title=\"bridging visa effect.jpg\" alt=\"bridging visa effect.jpg\" class=\"discussion-image\" src=\"////bridging%20visa%20effect.jpg////\"\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt will expire 28 days after you are notified of the result of your substantive visa.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWork Permission on Bridging Visa A\u003c/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYour bridging visa A has the same work permission as your last substantive visa you were holding. For example, if you were on a student visa and now you are applying for visa 485 (Graduate Temporary Visa), your \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e will also allow you to work because of the student visa.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLimit of Bridging Visa A\u003c/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe disadvantage of \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e is that you are not allowed to leave Australia. If you wish to travel overseas when holding \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e, you should apply for \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa B\u003c/strong\u003e. If you leave Australia, your \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e ceases.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBridging Visa B\u003c/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is also a temporary visa that allows you to remain lawful in Australia waiting for the outcome of your substantive visa. The difference between this and \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e is you can leave Australia.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to be granted a \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa B\u003c/strong\u003e, you have to submit \u003ca href=\"http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/1006.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003eForm 1006\u003c/a\u003e. As far as we're concerned, the current charge (April 2012) for this application is $125: \u003ca href=\"http://http//www.immi.gov.au/allforms/990i/other-visas.htm\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003eBriding Visa B Fee\u003c/a\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen a \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa B\u003c/strong\u003e is granted, your \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa A\u003c/strong\u003e ceases. Moreover, it is not easy to apply for a \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa B\u003c/strong\u003e since you must convince Department Of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) that you have a substantial reason to travel. It's common to see people turn away by an officer telling them their reasons are not substantial enough. Don't give up! You need to insist if you are there to let a processing officer see your application.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, you must make sure that you will come back to Australia within the intended period as you declare in your application for the \u003cstrong\u003ebridging visa B\u003c/strong\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e\n","created_at":"2010-09-29T22:53:10.745Z","author_name":"Bob","tag_groups":["briding-visa|Briding Visa|false","forum-immigration|Forum Immigration|false"],"author_id":1,"slug":"bridging-visa","parent_id":null,"visits":777,"likes":3,"image":null}
