Understanding the Requirements for Visa Renewal or Extension. The first step in renewing or extending your visa is to determine if you're eligible. Some common requirements include:

• Being physically present in Australia when you apply

• Having a valid passport

• Meeting the specific criteria for the visa you're applying for

• Having a clean immigration history

• Not having breached any visa conditions

It's essential to double-check the specific requirements for your visa before you apply to avoid any disappointment.

Life happens, and sometimes circumstances change. Maybe you've fallen in love with an Australian and want to stay together, or perhaps you've found the job of your dreams and don't want to leave it behind. Whatever the reason, it's essential to understand how changes to your circumstances can impact your visa status.

For example, if you get married or enter into a de facto relationship while in Australia, it can have a significant impact on your visa status, and you may need to apply for a different visa. It's essential to keep Active Migration informed of any changes to your circumstances, so we can help you determine the best course of action.
