hubbert0403 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 My son is looking at coming to visit after XMAS on a tourist visa, but it's only for 3 months, he wants to know if he went to Bali could he obtain another 3 month visa, if so how long will he have to stay in Bali or is there another way to extend without leaving Aus?

Guest The Pom Queen Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I know people use to do this all the time even going to New Zealand. The rules change all the time though so hopefully someone can give you an update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srh82 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 He can fly to NZ from Gold Coast cheaper and quicker than Bali. Why doesn't he get a WHV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrussell Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Visa cannot be extended. Another visa must be applied for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Pom Queen Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Visa cannot be extended. Another visa must be applied for. I thought the visas were valid for 12 months but you could only stay in Aus for 3 months each time. Have these totally changed? I know my mum was wanting to extend but it looks like this may now not be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parley Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 That is not extending the visa it is just complying with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronyaur Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 That is not extending the visa it is just complying with it. Thats correct aswell, but youdont need to apply for another one as previous stated above, you simply re enter the country to activate it for another 3 months.

MaggieMay24 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 If it's a visa that's only valid for 3 months, then he needs to apply for another one. If it's valid for a longer period but only allows a maximum stay of 3 months, then he simply needs to leave and then re-enter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
