carlhall Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I think if you wish to leave Australia then you have apply for a different bridging visa and you need a good reason to be traveling, not sure if Holiday would be accepted. I am sure someone with more knowledge than me will be along with a definitive answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Depends what bridging visa you get. I thought it was A but it could be one of the others. You can read about what it allows you to do here http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/010.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Either way, read this page and click on the Bridging visa option list on the menu. Has a list to read up on. http://www.immi.gov.au/migrants/family/visa-options.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blossom Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Yes, you need bridging visa b. Some people have been given a hard time when they've gone to get it as it is supposed to be for emergencies. I had no problems getting it for a holiday, but I had been in the country three years and been on a bridging visa for close to a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallie3000 Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 Ah ok thanks guys. I don't have my bridging visa yet and have no holidays planned but with the processing time being 13 months its a long time to go without a holiday and after sorting out our partner visa I think I'm going to need one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends what bridging visa you are on. We seem to have a few getting bridging visa E at te moment, if you have that you won't be able to leave and come back. Even if you are not on bridging visa E, you would still need to apply fo a different bridging visa to enable travel, th done you will be on, will not allow it, so don't just go.
