Bridging Visas & Working Rights
Bridging visas are not ‘substantive visas'. They are temporary visas or “visas to remain in Australia” while you are waiting for a visa-related decision. Bridging Visas do not allow the holder to travel to and enter Australia (excl. BVB & BVF).
At Visa Appeals, we have extensive experience in handling such cases.

Bridging Visas that allow you to enter Australia:
  • BVB Allows the holder to travel to and enter Australia during a specified period.
  • BVF Granted to a non-citizen who is outside Australia. It allows the holder to travel to and enter Australia on one occasion until a specified date.
The order of bridging visas, from the most beneficial to the least beneficial is:
  • BVB/BVA ( with unlimited right to work / with limited right to work / with no work rights)
  • BVC ( with unlimited right to work / with no work rights)
  • BVD/BVR
  • BVE/BVF
If you are a Bridging Visa (BVA, BVB, BVC and BVE ) holder in association with the protection visa you also need to satisfy the Department that you have an acceptable reason for the delay in applying for a protection visa after entering Australia.
