Boznich Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Hello, if based in Australia and decide to apply for a partner visa does the bridging visa provide unlimited work rights or are you tied to the existing areas of work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For most bridging visas, it's the work rights from your previous visa that continue. I don't know if that applies to a partner visa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulhand Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Bridging visas to onshore partner visas carry no conditions, so have full work permissions. The BV will only come into effect when your current visa expires. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boznich Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 (edited) Thanks Paul! How long does it take to get a bridging visa from when you submit an application for a partner visa? Is it as soon as you submit the application online or do you have to wait longer. Edited April 7, 2022 by Boznich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
