You should email Julian.hill.mp@aph.gov.au. He will be furious at this call you have had. He is taking up our case to be included in the Concession of not having to leave like the partners etc maybe if you say you can get a flight just after Xmas so they won’t be In Quarantine over that period they may agree to that @KathyN has just done the Singapore trip. it’s pure blackmail and discrimination- 3,180 replies

Some visa categories do not now have to leaves Oz to get visa grant. BUT parent visas( eg 143 ) are NOT included in the list. No surprise there, feeling totally discriminated against!! https://covid19.homeaffairs.gov.au/covid-19-visa-concessions
