Strict penalties for breaching the conditions of Australian visas

by Aston7 @ 2008-06-08 - 23:10:03

Visitors who have stayed longer in the country than their Australian visa allows, or people who have had their Australian visa cancelled because they are in breach of the conditions, have no rights to stay in Australia and must leave.

They may be held by the Australian authorities and deported, as soon as arrangements can be made.

In some instances, people who have overstayed their visa can gain a temporary Australian visa, allowing them to make travel arrangement to leave Australia or apply for another type of visa.

Overstayers can be given temporary lawful status through the grant of a bridging visa.

This allows them to make arrangements for their departure from Australia, or to seek a further visa, if eligible.

Visitors to Australia who stay longer than 28 days after their visa expires, will not be allowed to gain a further temporary Australian visa for a period the three years. This condition enforcement will apply, whether or not the overstayer leaves of his own free will or not.

Any debts incurred by the Commonwealth of Australia, taking account of costs incurred for deportation and detention of the overstayer, would also have to be repaid before any further visa be granted.
