Types of Bridging Visas and Their Work Conditions

Bridging Visa A (BVA) and Bridging Visa B (BVB) generally allow work if the substantive visa you held when applying for a new substantive visa included work rights. If your previous visa, such as a working holiday visa, permitted work, your BVA or BVB will carry the same working rights. If not, you may apply for a new visa with work rights by demonstrating financial hardship.

Bridging Visa C (BVC), typically granted when a person is unlawfully in Australia but applying for a new substantive visa, does not initially allow work. However, you can request work rights by demonstrating financial hardship. A separate application is required to obtain permission to work.

Bridging Visa E (BVE), granted to people who have overstayed their visas or are in immigration detention, also usually comes without work rights. To gain work rights on a BVE, you must apply for a new BVE and demonstrate a compelling need due to financial hardship. It is important to note that the government has a strong disinclination to grant work rights on this visa, so applications must be strong.

업무에 대한 타임라인 제한이 있나요?

Most Bridging Visa A (BVA) holders can work without restrictions, but caution is needed as the work rights from the current substantive visa may carry over to the BVA. For instance:

• If your substantive visa application was a Student Visa, your BVA might limit your working rights to the same 20 hours per week.
• Similarly, if your substantive visa was a Working Holiday (subclass 417) or Work and Holiday (subclass 462) visa, you can work in any job during a 12-month stay, but you will be restricted to working for 6 months with any one employer, subject to Condition 8547.

If your current visa ceases and you need to work beyond this timeframe, you would need to apply for a further bridging visa or seek permission under the visa process.

What Happens If You Work Without Permission on a Bridging Visa?

If you work on a bridging visa when you are not permitted to, you and your employer face severe penalties:

• Fines and imprisonment: Individuals can be fined up to $22,000, while employers risk higher fines and, in cases of reckless disregard, up to two years of imprisonment.
• Visa revocation: Working in breach of your visa conditions can result in your visa being revoked, requiring you to depart Australia.

Regaining Work Rights

If your current substantive visa ceases or does not permit work, you may apply for a new bridging visa that includes work rights. This is essential for those who need to remain in Australia lawfully while their application for a substantive visa is being processed.

The Process for Applying

1. Assess eligibility: If you have a BVA or BVC, you can apply for a new visa with “nil conditions” (full work rights) if you demonstrate a compelling need to work.
2. Evidence of financial hardship: You must prove that your daily living expenses (i.e., rent, food, medical costs, etc.) exceed your current means.
3. Submit Form 1005: Submit an application for a “Bridging visa with different conditions” via ImmiAccount.
4. Await approval: Do not start working until the Department notifies you that the “No Work” condition (Condition 8101) has been removed.

For those affected, obtaining legal advice from Australian migration lawyers is vital. Our experienced migration lawyers can:

• Help you navigate the process, starting by reviewing your current visa grant to confirm exactly what your work rights are
• Prepare a robust evidence portfolio to prove your financial hardship
• Assist with appeals to the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) if your visa has been refused

자주 묻는 질문

Can I work in Australia while on a bridging visa?

It depends on the specific subclass of bridging visa you hold and its conditions. Generally, a BVA or BVB will have the work rights of the visa you held just before it. If you are on a BVC or BVE, you usually will not have work rights by default, but you can apply for them separately.

How can I check if I have work rights on my bridging visa?

The easiest and most reliable way is to use the VEVO system. You just need your passport details and your visa grant number or TRN from your application.

What happens if I work without permission on a bridging visa?

Working without authorisation is a serious violation of visa conditions and can have severe consequences. Beyond the risk of your visa being cancelled (which could lead to your removal from Australia), you and your employer could also face hefty fines.

Can I apply for work rights if my bridging visa does not allow work?

Yes, you can. You will need to submit a request to the Department (often using Form 1005) and demonstrate “financial hardship” by providing evidence like bank statements, utility bills, or rent receipts to show that you genuinely need to work to support yourself.

Does a Bridging Visa A (BVA) have work restrictions?

BVA typically “inherits” the work rights of your previous substantive visa. For example, if you were on a student visa with a 48-hour-per-fortnight limit, your BVA will keep that same limit. However, if you have applied for certain permanent visas like a Partner visa, your BVA will come with unrestricted work rights.

How can an Australian migration lawyer help with bridging visa work rights?

A lawyer can be a huge help if you have been refused work rights before or if you are moving between complex visa subclasses. They can help gather the right evidence to prove your “financial hardship” and prepare a professional submission to the Department for your application’s best possible chance of success.

Can I leave and re-enter Australia while on a bridging visa?

Not on a standard BVA or BVC. If you leave the country on one of these, your visa will expire the moment you depart, and you will not be allowed back in. If you need to travel, you must apply for and be granted a BVB before you leave.
