- What it is for
- An information sheet describing the circumstances under the Migration Act 1958 that limit which visa applications can validly be made while a person is in Australia. It is explanatory material, not a form to complete.
- Who completes it
- No lodgement; it is guidance for non-citizens in Australia considering a further visa application.
- Information it collects (in general terms)
- It collects no applicant information; it explains general scenarios that restrict onshore applications, such as prior visa refusal or cancellation, cancellation or refusal on character grounds, previous protection visa refusal, certain visa conditions, criminal justice visas, and time limits affecting people in immigration detention.
- When it is used
- Consulted by a non-citizen in Australia who wants to understand whether their situation restricts the visas they may apply for onshore.
