The Australian Government has just announced that the Migration Amendment (Family Violence and Other Measures) Act 2018 will commence on 17 April 2019.
This amendment allows Immigration to implement a separate sponsorship process for Family Visa sponsors – such as the new Temporary Parent visa – and to require that this sponsorship be approved before a visa application can be lodged.
