Frequently Asked Questions

A Bridging Visa allows you to stay in Australia lawfully while your new visa application, appeal, or immigration process is being decided. It acts as a temporary legal status so you don’t become unlawful during a visa transition or review period.

Your ability to work or travel depends on the type of Bridging Visa you hold. For example, a Bridging Visa A (BVA) may allow work under certain conditions but does not permit travel, while a Bridging Visa B (BVB) provides limited travel rights. It’s best to check your grant letter or seek advice before making travel plans.

If your visa has already expired, you may still be eligible to apply for a Bridging Visa C (BVC) or Bridging Visa E (BVE) to regain lawful status. However, delays can lead to complications, so it’s important to apply as soon as possible or seek assistance from an immigration professional.

Bridging Visas are generally processed quickly since they are tied to ongoing visa or appeal applications. In most cases, decisions are made within a few days, but complex or incomplete applications can take longer depending on your immigration history and circumstances.

Kritin Global provides end-to-end support for all Bridging Visa subclasses. From assessing your eligibility and preparing documents to liaising with the Department of Home Affairs, our team ensures your application is accurate, compliant, and processed smoothly — helping you stay lawful and stress-free during your transition period.
