Visa Fundamentals

General Immigration Lawyer Sydney

All areas of the law are complex. Immigration law is both complex and constantly changing. There were many changes made during the height of the Covid Pandemic, and further changes made to help recovery after the pandemic started to subside. This means it is essential to get up-to-date advice from a lawyer.

Visas and Immigration Lawyer Sydney

There are various visas, each with different purposes and application criteria. A study Visa requires the individual to have been accepted and enrolled with an Australian school or university. Similarly, a work Visa requires the individual to be employed, perhaps being sponsored by an employer, perhaps entering Australia because of an in demand skill.

Visas with specific criteria expect the individual to continue to fulfil those criteria. If the individual loses their job or ceases to be a student, then they will probably lose their Visa, and may face deportation.

Some of the present Visas include:

• Visitor or Tourism Visa
• Study Visa
• Employer nominated Work Visa
• Skilled Employer Sponsorship
• Skilled independent Visa
• Medical Treatment Visa
• Business Investment and Business owner Visas
• Permanent Residency Visa’s
