Australian visa support for Ukraine nationals


Australia’s Department of Home Affairs has announced its significant support to nationals of Ukraine that includes the following:

  • all of their visas will be automatically renewed for a further six months, if their visas are expiring prior to 30th June 2022 and they are already onshore Australia;
  • processing visa applications from all visa categories as a top priority;

If they are already in Australia and their visas are expiring prior to the 30th June 2022, their visas will be automatically renewed. They do not have to re-apply for any other visas. Instead, the Department of Home Affairs will be contacting each visa holder in Australia to check if they wish to extend their stay in Australia.

For more information, contact the Global Service Centre on 131 881. For outside Australia, you can call +61 2 6196 0196.

There is also now an online enquiry form available for them.

Migrating to Australia can be made easier if you have someone you can trust to hold your hand from start to finish.
