Support and Rights


Navigating life in Australia on a visa can come with challenges, from facing a visa refusal to experiencing domestic or family violence. Both situations can be overwhelming, and it’s crucial to know that support is available.

If you’ve received a visa refusal, this can be one of the most stressful experiences. It’s important to seek professional advice immediately, as you may have the right to request a review of the decision, generally within 21 days. Regional Migration Australia can guide you through the process, including preparing, lodging, and representing you at the appropriate Tribunal. Being well-prepared can significantly improve your chances, and in many cases, matters can be remitted back to the Department and result in a visa grant.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic or family violence, please know that help is available. Your safety is the priority, and there are legal protections, visa pathways, and support services designed to assist you during this difficult time. We are here to help you understand your rights and options. Click below to find out the support that is available.
