IMPACT – MEDIUM
What is the change? A legislative instrument has passed that will raise Government visa application fees on most types of visas.
What does the change mean? The new fees will apply to applications filed 1 July 2018 and thereafter.
Background: The Government has increased the fees to keep up with inflation, and most of the increases are around 2 per cent. Dependent applicant charges will also increase for each visa category.
BAL Analysis: Employers and individual visa applicants should review the new fees and make sure that applications lodged on and after 1 July follow the new fee schedule.
